    When Hurricane Florence passes and @bucky925 posts that all is well at Dan Nichols Park.  
    I will do a live feed from DNP tomorrow on the way to date night!

    Be careful, because the oil you fry your wings in will splatter in the rain!

    While the storm is still a severe threat, luckily is has died down considerably. 

    Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

    Status- Standing by.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    That's great the wind speed went down, but when it did, it doubled in size and has the same kinetic energy as the higher speed storm.  But worse, it's staying just off the shore, moving slowly with a storm surge of a higher category storm, stretching, like a proverbial anus, the destructive potential. 

    Hope the best for the Carolinas and other areas.

    Sounds like they are pretty prepared other than some exercises of free will by some folks in the mandatory evacuation areas.

    Projected rainfall for some of the areas over the next few days is looking to be "tremendously wet".

    i always feel bad for folks in areas hit hard by these incredible storms  for the egg nation members displaying generosity id like to say it is super inspiring.

    honestly, i can say that i feel like a big jerk complaining about my so called problems. i dont have to evacuate or worry about being swept away in a flood this weekend.    

    ill be dontaing to the Red Cross tomorrow and saying prayers and sending good mental energy to the areas affected.

    i know material things can be replaced but people cant so i hope all affected have minimal...meaning zero. loss of loved ones.

    Here is the latest forecast for us mountain folks, or ground is already soaked so the rain is not a good thing because of falling trees = down power lines! We get 25-35 MPH ++ winds all the time but not with 6"-12" of rain. I will keep ya updated as needed. We have the Motor Home ready if we need to leave the house.

    The coast is certainly getting hammered, prayers for all who stayed.

    Things are still pretty calm here in Durham.  Some light wind, not much of any rain.  This thing might go right around us, which is nuts.

    Thanks for the link. I watched four people walk by the Kitty Hawk Pier a few minutes ago!
    @Lit  Off topic? How is that off topic? The Hilton Garden Inn webcam was showing the Kitty Hawk pier when I watched it.

    Probably just a butt-dial type thing.  Lot of us here have fat thumbs from eating so much MEAT.
