That dog has a big ole mouth.
Jeff is keeping his storm location secret. Has anyone heard anything about two storm chasers stranded at Holly Beach earlier?
A cat 4 making landfall in the middle of the night....can’t think of a much worse situation.
Good thoughts to everyone in the path.
We do what we can. I have friends in high places. ;o)
Night hurricanes are the worst. During Irma, we heard machine gun fire hitting the front wall of the house until the winds finally changed direction. At daylight, found out the rapid fire was hard-as-rocks immature grapes from the sea grape trees.
If that blob of convection can wrap around the west wide there might a west jog
When I was a kid we used to take a large funnel with some surgical tubing and make a 3-man sling shot. Fill it full of immature sea grapes and it was like a giant shotgun.
That was after we ran out of water balloons.
