Blindshooter,
I have family in Robeson county..........
Any idea how bad it may get in that area....
I can be there in 2 hrs to man the generator From what I saw it looks like some good bands of rain setting up along the 95 corridor that may cause some flooding. The surface winds should be pretty minor. If they are out of a flood prone area it shouldn't be that bad.

BTW...
Was there ever a hurricane Debbie that went thru Dallas?
Or was that just a movie? It was a movie, but nobody came....... I never saw it, but from what I heard, I would have thought that everybody did.

Thx for the update unccgrad NP. Tornados are always a wild card inland with these damn things though. Brad Panovich was showing some probable spinners just inland from Wilmington. Prayers thing thing hurries along with little damage.

Hurricane Rita had 160mph wind and a 25 foot storm surge and it didn't get this much coverage.
Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

Just released from NOAA Hurricane Center. https://photos.app.goo.gl/sY9KRNTmLLpPHAtF8The size of this storm is staggering... unlike any NOAA hurricane map I have ever seen before. This hurricane could be much worse than murder hornets... for sure. Well... maybe not, but there is always a chance.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

With the full moon and the storm surge, Myrtle Beach is likely to have a pretty rough night. I hope the hood rats get out and enjoy the night.

What's to worry about. Just some rain with a lot of wind with some rising tides thrown in. Defiantly the end of the world as we know it. As for storms a cat 5 is a tough nut to ride out. 1969 Camille was a ball buster.There have been others but all seem to have their own quirks. Be safe.

Didn't even wake me up. Slept through it. Map shows the center came overhead around 2 AM. Wind may have been worse a little east of us but we only saw about 50 for gusts. Still have power. The worst power outages here are from flooding, don't look like thats gonna happen. They will be back to black black black covid covid covid in a few minutes.

Cash, As STORM WATCH ramps up you will begin to die. The possibility of rain is nothing to joke about.
