Hurricane Matthew is big, bad and just downright scary, with iminent and sustained impacts to U.S. mainland. Florida Governor Rick Scott issued a state of emergency for all of Florida and disaster operations are activated. More than 1.5 million Floridians reside in current evacuation zones. Governor Scott has spoken with utilities across the state to ensure utilities are pre-positioned and there are no unmet needs. Multiple coastal hospitals have been evacuated. Meanwhile, feckless President Barack Hussein Obama is personally monitoring the progress of the storm.

Very sorry to hear your electricity went out. Hopefully, it will be only for a short time tonight. Which electric company?
If Matthew doesn’t make the turn eastward, it will be an ugly night for Savannah, Hilton Head, Charleston, or all of the above.

That photo reminded me so much of the Japan Tusami....there’s a video of it going down the streets too.....I spent hours watching videos of that Tusami as it was happening and thereafter for months.
Glad you saw that photo and hope you get the problem worked out so you can see any future ones.

Huh, interesting. Thank you so much, NN. I know it was blowing hard for a long time but for me, after Charley, it’s all a walk in the park.
Thanking God for cell phone..the coverage never stopped.
He’s also getting baroclinically enhanced. Look at that poleward outflow touching the jetstream.
