Not surprisingly, Florence has now been downgraded from THE WORST STORM EVER TO HIT THE EASTERN SEABOARD IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE to a Category 2. Poor Chris Cuomo and Anderson Cooper, I bet they had their flights booked and everything.
I'm surprised #TheResistance even allowed the Trump admin to turn on the weather machine since the Carolinas are red states.

The storm dropping to a category 2 doesn't mean much. That's just wind speed not storm surge/rain or duration. They're fucked.

The president is still claiming that it’s getting stronger, hitting the panic button either out of naked indifference to the facts or because he wants to look the hero when all is well.

Right now the heaviest rain is in the eastern half of the storm, that's kind of unusual for hurricanes in this part of the world.

Florence seems a puppy compared to Typhoon Mangkhut. Holy hell.

We'll be dealing with this "for the next foreseeable future."
What's that mean?

You hope his house isn’t out of town or you hope his house isn’t doing ok?

That they can’t see far enough into the future where this storm isn’t there.

Ruddo's a mediocre mod as it is. Imagine if he was homeless!

Every RMer in the area okay so far? Looks like a rain nightmare on Tv.
