Mortir Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 Wow that thing looks like it is gonna escelate quickly. It even looks like Laura is going to swallow the remnants of Marco.

BlackNoir Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 This is where a lot of my family is....We survived Katrina, I hear this is a joke. My niece said Marco must have went back because he forgot his mask. Here's hoping Laura makes the food hoarding worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mortir Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) I hope your family does okay. Looks like it will actually keep strengthining before it hits for a few hours. It might even upgrade to a cat 3 with winds at >110 mph and even higher gusts. Edited August 26, 2020 by Mortir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapinator_X Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I hate Sally because of how it popped out of nowhere. I was out to celebrate a relative’s birthday when suddenly I go outside and find out theres a tropical depression over our heads. And because it turned into a tropical storm the next day, we still got slapped by the outer bands. Louisiana’s got it worse since it’s coming to them at full force, but I wanted to rant because the weather has gotten fucked enough that now they’re starting to take form near the US. And then there’s a ton of others that keep steering around us cause I’ve been checking the NHS more frequently since Isaias. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaias was far more troubling because it shaved close to us at a higher velocity. Florida’s enough of a crapshoot without the hurricanes, but they do make a strong argument for moving away eventually since we’re usually on constant surveillance throughout the summer & autumn. It’s also a season where you see telltale signs that we’d hoard up resources and be the worst on the off chance of a nation-wide crisis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpgamer Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 So we've tied the record for named storms within just 15 years. That seems bad. Especially since last time, Zeta only barely squeezed in with a Dec. 30 formation. Give us a century or two and we might have to rethink our naming convention.
