Hurricane Matthew
 

Hoping anyone on the United States east coast remains safe during this hurricane!

I'm in Orlando, Florida myself and am expecting to see winds around 100mph here within the next few hours. Take cover, stay safe, GOOD LUCK!

Ya im fillin up buckets and jugs and freezing bottles. Hunker down.

Need a good live stream from some dumbasses house in the path that is staying. Anyone got any good feeds?

You should move 150 miles inland.


I made the mistake of ignoring mandatory evacuations on Long Island when Hurricane Sandy hit. It wasn't even a category 1 storm when it hit but with the combination of the unprecedented storm surge that came with that storm + the high moon tides made for some seriously scary flooding.

My neighbors were being rescued by boat from their 2nd floor windows/roofs less than 100 feet away. My house being on a slight hill saved us, the water receded before it hit my backdoor/basement windows.

What category is it now? I'm from Wilmington, NC, but just came to Oklahoma City literally a month ago. I still sit on the screen porch and drink beer up to Category 3. Category 4 or higher I'll skip town. But it's been a looooooong time since anything bigger than a 3.

Currently Cat 4

So, these things like start at sea and stuff right? Think we can be reasonably confident that they aren't full of debris and shit at that point? I want someone to GoPro a wingsuit in one of these before they reach land. If thought of this I know someone is out there already working to make it happen. Can't wait :3

why not build a wall to keep the undesirable seawater out??

Good luck everyone getting hit by the storm. Hope you and your families stay safe.

Melbourne, FL here.
