I dont take hurricanes lightly and have had some pretty big rows with folk who minimize them.

 

This is going to be brutal on the Fla coast.

Im exhausted by the weather people in the triad trying to scare everyone into believing this is going to be anything more than a bad storm.

 

And I didnt say apocalyptic. Ed Mathews did

So is this your definition of just another storm?

 

Just looking at the pictures it looks pretty significant.

 

*43 people dead from this storm so far...

In Greensboro, this was just another storm

They said earlier today that the dam at lake lure was going to collapse but it didnt

They canceled school in areas that just got rain

They preempted regular programming to scare people into thinking that a hurricane was going to hit High Piont but it didnt

Debby was worse but they wanted us to think this was going to be an apocalypse

 

 

You're not understanding that Im annoyed by the ramped up "the sky is falling" way they are treating this weather event.

 

This is why people dont believe weather forecasters when it really is going to be bad

So 43 people died as of right now and you think that wasn't a big deal?

 

Cold world!

Youre doing exactly what I talking about

The hurricane is 1 system. Do you realize we weren't the only state affected?

 

A loss of life is always serious. 3 people died today because of this storm. That's a big deal. Asheville is literally flooded. People will be without power for multiple days. All this is a big deal.

 

Just because your area didn't get hit hard doesn't mean everyone else did.
