They would definitely be safer on high ground 100m inland.
Those barrier islands may disappear altogether in this storm. It’s set to sit and spin for several DAYS at cat 2/3.
Nothing in Katrina, Camille or Andrew can compare to that.
Along with the 50” of rain being printed by the models (just like with Harvey).
Absolutely this woman can stay. Darwin will sort that out.
I do NOT want to see her smug face on TV next week demanding to know when Trump will fix the flush potties and clean up the raw sewage leaking from the eroded pipes along the streets. And how dangerous all the broken glass and debris is for ‘mukids’. She’ll be shrieking about ‘Puerto Rico’ and all that business.
She’s a green one I can tell. No mention of preps or safe construction. Just ‘strength in numbers’ BS.
This is a fun map:

If she’s really staying in Carolina Beach NC she’s stupid.
That sloshmap says 3-6’ of inundation. That’s based on a moderately moving storm. Not surge over 2 days with 2-3 high tides in between + the 50” of rain being printed for that area.
And when she’s faced with no ac, no water, no food and probably no roof either for however long it takes the national guard to get there and get her ass out she’ll be blaming everyone but herself the entire time.
You assume quite a bit there. How do you know her situation?
I could speculate all day......
Just a bunch of busy bodies on this thread who don’t know a damn thing.
