I think the video is looping? Goes to buffer after so long and I keep seeing the same white plank of wood land in front of the camera before flying off!

I love that on some of the webcams showing the beach, even thought there's mandatory evacuation orders in place...

"Weather's ok. let's go to the beach!"

Welcome to Florida.

Heard on the radio that the forward motion of Dorian is slowing and as a result it may spend as much as 30 hours over the Bahamas.

If that's the case this may be more catastrophic than Katrina.

Was fascinated by this picture from the eye of Dorian by a National Hurricane Center storm chaser. It's known as the stadium effect and only happens in really strong storms.

Actually, this USAF picture may give a better view of the phenomenon.

You do realize that people will die as a result of this storm right? Or does that matter as long as you can make your political statement?

Worked up? Joke? I don't think you've seen either from me, nor him. Joke my ***! It was a declarative statement, with a political agenda.

But hey, people are going to die, what's the big deal right? You're safe right? <insert political comment here>

Sorry, I guess you think it's ok to express your political viewpoint while people die. How else would we know how you feel? I offer my sincerest apology to you.

Devastation is crazy almost tsunami levels of damage from the surge (though I say that loosely as a tsunami would be an order of magnitude worse).
