Please be safe people. I really hope you all in the areas near Sarasota and Tampa get spared the worst predictions. Very sad :(
I don't think this will be quite as bad for me as Ian was, but power is out already. Winds here are not extreme yet but picking up. Tornado touched down about three miles from me.
I'll post back later if possible.
Stay safe friends,
Greg
stay safe everybody.....
...you on a canal greg?
Yes he is
He had coconut palms on his dock last time, I think they were his neighbors, the water was at his sliding glass door.
I just drove around, we got lucky this time, we had bad weather for 4 days, not much rain just windy today.
Prayers for all of the Floridians in the path of this storm to be protected.....Even you Mr Cuda.:cheers:
22R
Over 5 inches of rain in one hour, over 18 inches in 24

Studies have shown that global warming is increasing sea surface temperatures, which provides extra energy for storms, allowing them to gain speed and intensity. The unusually high sea surface temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico that helped both Hurricanes Milton and Helene strengthen were 200 to 500 times more likely because of climate change, according to research released Wednesday.
A warmer atmosphere can also hold more water: For every degree Fahrenheit that the planet heats up, the atmosphere can hold about 3% to 4% more moisture. That makes storms capable of dumping enormous amounts of rain over land.

All this just after Helene. Sad.
I would go into more detail but I see the thread has already gone into
some BS global warming garbage by none other than.......
The earth is 4.5 billion years old its just doing earth things.
Man cannot change or hurt this planet, period. We can hurt our ability to live on it that is all.
The earth will be the earth forever in human years. Deal with it.
Dago.
The earth is getting closer to the sun, thats a fact. the polar ice caps are melting. the ocean levels are rising. i dont think buying an electric car will help... or eating plant based burgers. i just spilt my beer, damn. Artk.
