I know what you mean. My wife's grown kids are going nuts; one NC; one in WI. We are in Sebring in a sturdy home that is as prepared as can be.
Earlier today Al Roker on NBC national news showed a graphic of Irma being a Cat3 storm in central Georgia! Geez!!
This is a serious storm, no joking about it, but there has been way too much hype from some of the MSM types. The FReepers here have a better handle on what is unfolding than they do.
Isn't that the normal state of affairs around here for almost everything the MSM spews out?
Absolutely. This forum has been a sanity saver. I keep directing my dad to it so hopefully he tunes in. It would certainly help him feel better. He actually broke down into tears when I called him Thursday afternoon. He’s so afraid for us. And he’s a retired, badass Detroit cop!
Tell ya what....I get more real time info from this thread than I could ever get from TWC. Thank the Lord for all you wonderful FReepers!
It’s crazy! TWC is now blocked on my teevee. Cannot stand their abject stupidity. Even our locals are now struggling to fill up airtime.
Although I will say anything can happen.
