The flu shot that they’re giving out is one of the bivalent shots, I think.

I personally know two people who got the shot on Friday afternoon and got super sick by that evening.

Two data points:

• One person is a friend in her 40s - she got super bad flu symptoms for 24 hours (high fever and all). She said it was the Pfizer one.

-The other is a guy in his 80s. By Friday evening, he was slurring his speech and couldn’t go up stairs. He ended up in the hospital.

Looks like Idalia just got upgraded to a Category 4 hurricane. Mods, can we have a hurricane thread sticky for those of us in FL and the southeast?

Hey folks. Does anyone have a good recommendation for a weather tracking app or site? Someone recommended a good one here in the past (that we used during Hurricane Ian in FL last year), but I can’t recall what it was. Thank you, frens!

Apparently, cash is king right now if you go to the post office. At our post office, they will only accept cash and are saying that all debit and credit card readers are down across the nation. Bizarre!
