Why the fuck did they move into the BASEMENT to prepare for a flood situation?

This infuriates me.
Now that it is just a tropical storm, the Weather Channel's website headline is "CAT 5 FLOOD THREAT CRAWLING INLAND"
I was like ‘lame joke my evenbro’, then I looked.
I'm not sure why you'd think he was joking. The Weather Channel is the worst click-bait-y-est site out there. All of their headlines are some variation of Armageddon.
They gotta do something. It’s 24 hours of WEATHER. Outside of my father-in-law, I doubt many people sit and watch it all day every day.
I can't remember the last time I watched the Weather Channel. But I do go to their site almost every day to check temps and such. But, yeah, I can't imagine sitting around and watching that channel.
My FiL watches it like we would binge watch Game of Thrones or something. It’s on constantly.
Poor guy.

Guess they were more worried about a tree falling on the house.

Apparently I have five trees down, most of the fence (minus the posts) blown away, but no house damage other than minor garage flooding

Sweet. I hope you can get home.

I delivered some vaccines to Kinston today. Things don't look great there.

As for Chapel Hill, we got 3 inches of rain total from Friday through Sunday daytime, then we got 6.5 inches last night. Schools had to close down today after calling to tell us that they were in great shape for school on Monday.

I'm out of town until the 24th for work, so I should be fine. My girlfriend lives in downtown Wilmington and had evacuated, but so many roads are closed she may not get home until Wednesday or Thursday.
