So we have a hurricane of pretty good size and significant strength meandering around in bathtub warm waters right now, just off the coast from me right now. Supposedly, this monster will pile drive itself right in to NYC on Sunday morning. This should be interesting, as it might be able to maintain a lot of its strength since waters are pretty warm all the way along its path, which is pretty much along the Gulf Stream.
As a survivor of several monster storms, I wouldn't wish this prick on anyone, so if this thing is headed your way, don't be an idiot and try to "ride it out" if you are on the coast or in flood prone areas, get the fuck out of there. Property can be replaced people. Stuff is exactly that, stuff. We lost everything we owned in Andrew, and we lost it again when Charley, Frances and Jeanne came through our area in a perfect conflagration one year. We moved north to escape what we thought was a bad area for storms only to get hammered again.
When we came back down from Jacksonville [where we ran to get away from the hurricanes] our house was destroyed by a huge oak tree and the howling winds that carried all manner of water, branches and shit in to our house, but we were alive. You have insurance for a reason. Your family cannot be replaced, your big screen TV can.
