I think it’s because this is a slow moving Hurricane which is of the greatest concern though.....more water over long periods trees topple foundations leak and lots of mud damage....

Any hurricane has a lot of rain, but a really slow mover does dump even more rain, and it’ll chew up the beachfront worse too.

Seems to be the consensus. Storm has no steering mechanism to push it up and out for a time.

I would go west if I were there. Flooding may get quite severe.

Have they ordered the evacuation of the barrier islands yet? No way a prolonged surge + large waves won’t devastate those islands. This is a big one. Mass devastation.

They need to start mandatory evacuations. By tomorrow noon the bridges will be clogged and the water will be up, flooding roads as happened with Katrina. People will be stuck. They will die.

Media underplaying this to make a Katrina event for Trump.

/conspiracy.
