Bastardi said today that this will be the worst hurricane to hit Fla. since 1921, and will be worse than that one. Tampa is still the target, and could easily see 15-20’ surge and waves on top of that. It’s still going to be a hurricane when it gets to the Atlantic coast. My advice would be leave now and take your generator with you.

I’ll have a well prompted advocacy with thousand island.

Looks like a lot of rain to me. https://www.accuweather.com/en/hurricane/tropical-depression-forms-expected-to-strengthen-into-a-hurricane-and-target-florida/1699524

The FCC’s Political Attack On Elon Musk Has Put American Lives In Danger BY: MOLLIE HEMINGWAY OCTOBER 01, 2024 5 MIN READ “Disrupting communications is a military strategy that has been deployed during wars throughout history. It’s also what the federal government has done to rural Americans as part of its war on Elon Musk, a tech billionaire whose support of free speech has put him at odds with the Biden administration and other powerful Democrats.” https://thefederalist.com/2024/10/01/the-fccs-political-attack-on-elon-musk-has-put-american-lives-in-danger/

There are people who don’t know anything, and then there are people who don’t even suspect anything.
