YAWN. Just barely a hurricane - will be downgraded the minute it comes ashore.

But EVERYBODY PANIC anyway.

LOL, I was in Key West last week, and everybody was freaking out about Fred.

Didn’t do Jack there.

Wonderful, and guess where I live? Long Island or “Lawn Goyland” as they say here. And does that map say 90mph wind? Good God, just what we need.

Accuweather is showing the eyepath right up the Hudson valley.

Here in northern CT the last time we had a tropical storm we lost power for a week.

The problem is a zillion trees next to power lines—everywhere for miles and miles in every direction.

Tropical storm wind gusts will knock thousands of the trees down.

So, it is a big deal for those of us who live here...

I sure hope those guys that have to go out and restore electric power are wearing masks.

Out here in rural CT nobody wears masks—it is the cities and inner suburbs that are overrun with Karens.

“national news” should be a hoot this weekend.
“Hurricane Henri or Onree or Orney, a category O my God hurricane devastates New York & New England. Unimaginable devastation and suffering. Millions without power for almost an hour.”

Look up “Agnes” and you’ll never underestimate a tropical storm again.

Should be on every top 10 list of hurricanes but is too often ignored. Possibly the most impactful storm ever on the east coast.

An hour without power in New York City is bigger news than a hundred hours without power in Tupelo, Mississippi.

Tupelo? That's right next to One-Pelo.

Sam, you know if a hurricane ever hits the Eastern seaboard or even NYC, all resources will be deployed and trillions of dollars will be spent. Especially under this corrupt “administration.” I remember growing up and watching the Today show and wondered why Al Roker always focused on weather on the East coast and NYC. It then dawned on me that these elites don’t give a crap about the rest of the country, the Acela corridor and pockets of CA is the country according to these mofos.

I hope, I live on Long Island and another weather report says 110 mph winds, but I think you are right, they always beef up these reports and then they crap out.

“THREAT TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT INCLUDES TYPICAL FORECAST
UNCERTAINTY IN TRACK, SIZE AND INTENSITY: Potential for wind
greater than 110 mph”
