Michael wiped Mexico Beach off the map. Cat 5. No amount of preparation would have helped one with that. I was there 4 days after it happened. Complete and total devastation. 19' storm surge.
Panhandle is the reddest place in America, IMO. That's why they hate us. I say "us" as I'm a Cracker and spent a lot of my life on that little patch of land in MB. I haven't lived in FL since the 70s.
What was wild was when the 200 mph wind hit the freshly baled cotton and blasted it into the trees across the road like blown in insulation. Damndest thing I've seen.
We're talking millions of people for this one in the Tampa Bay area. Pinellas County is the most densely populated County in the country. There is serious cause for concern.
Stay safe. There's enough illegals down there, they'll send lots of media, NGOs to traffic people etc. Raise a bunch of money to stuff in their pockets too. Yup, they'll show concern if their replacement population is involved.
Yup, and were my daughter & her family and my sis live. I know they've been through them before, as have I being I use to live down there for a good portion of my growing up years, but I'm concerned for them. My sis was just giving the evac orders and my daughter said they haven't even told them when her work will close (grocery store). I'm very concerned for them.
Well they both have large trees, just going to have to pray for the best. They've managed to get through other bad hurricanes with little damage, hoping this one will be no different.
Fuckers forgot about Michael in '18. And for that very reason, they are hysterical. We survived and are stronger for it. Cowards.

Panama City here and the eye went over my house. No national coverage like Katrina or Andrew...they hate us here.
Did the "eye" see your house? 😊
NO...he was bent over watching his other eye!!!! The more you know!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yup. Looked right down at it.
Its was just a blip for the MSM. God forbid we cared about a mostly conservative area. So easy to see.

We're glad to have you as an honorary "us"!
They were still clearing fallen trees from the sides of I10 6 months later or more. (I'm near Pensacola)

The pine forests in the I-10 medians between Tally an P'cola have yet to recover.
The scariest part was how fast Michael developed. Just a few days from "keep an eye on this" to "Oh shit, this storm is a beast".
HAARP
Hmmm...better ask Dave about that one!

Thank you. Hurricane Charlie took out A LOT of illegals that no one ever wanted to talk about. The missing were no considered in the disaster numbers.

They just need to get away from the beach or bays. A sturdy structure will suffice as long as there are no trees that might be dangerous.

Michael was the Sharpiegate hurricane, right?
Nope. Tbat was Dorian. Michael was the strongest storm to ever hit, yet they don't mention it ever.
