Hurricane Irma: now a tropical storm, moving into Georgia today

[hashmander]

just a reminder from the national hurricane center:

"since the models could shift back to the west it is prudent to make little change to the official forecast at this time. In any event, users are reminded not to focus on the exact track since the average NHC track errors at days 4 and 5 are about 175 and 225 miles, respectively."

that's a pretty big margin of error.

Based on my contacts there it looks like St. Thomas got hit HARD

Hopefully @iBrowse is ok....

 

[Stir Fry]

Should probably look through the South Florida thread to make sure everybody is accounted for.

Puerto Rico got lucky. Could have been a lot worse

Okay, I'm scared now

I'm more worried about flooding..Charlotte was less developed and smaller when Hugo hit and even then there were some issues. All this building and shyt and we still have below par drainage..If goddamn major highways puddle up when less than an inch of water drops down in your city, you got some motherfukking problems.

I ain't dealing with it.

 Miami it's been real
 see you in another life

Bout to head out of here right after work. Got a couple of homeboys to stay with in Tampa

Bro here's a tip to avoid traffic on Alligator Alley: Take US-27 to US-98 in South Bay/Belle Glade, then US-98 to I-75 then I-75 south to Tampa

there will be flooding in several areas, that's a no brainer

this is a huge storm moving 16 miles per house and moving NE - you obviously want to be south and west of the storm, but we are obviously gonna be NE of the storm, so we are gonna get smacked with the worse winds.

Rain wise it's a toss up but for a storm that wide to sit over us for 12 hours , it's a no brainer that the typical areas that flood will be flooded bad


someone asked about Tampa - that Cone isn't some probability cone all of Florida is getting hit with the 150 mph winds (maybe it downgrades to a category 4) but Tampa is gonna feel like they got a direct hit just like Miami is.
