...I am definitely making moves to vacate Florida. It is no longer viable to live there. For this and many reasons 

Is the fact that the Florida surgeon general is an anti-vax moron one of those 'many reasons'?

No shit.

Read this (actual Florida government site):
https://www.floridahealth.gov/newsroom/2024/09/20210912-UpdatedGuidanceCOVID-19.html

Also:

Fun fact: During Covid, a group calling themselves "America's Frontline Doctor's" released a video of them standing on the steps of the Supreme Court.
The leader of the group was Stella Immanuel, aka "Dr Demon Sperm" because she thinks that most ailments are caused by sex with aliens or demons (yes, really).

The video was banned from FB, Twitter and various other platforms because it was full of shit.
Of course, the idiots claimed that it was just the "Deep State" hiding real cures from the masses.

Guess who was standing on those steps during the video.
Go ahead, take a wiiiild guess.

Also on Sunday, Gov. Ron DeSantis issued a declaration of emergency for 35 counties.......:

The order specified that landfills in areas damaged by Hurricane Helene remain open to accept debris from that storm before Milton arrives. It also says state emergency officials “shall not have the authority to suspend or limit the sale, dispensing, or transportation of firearms.”

There you have it sport fans, when a second hurricane is barreling down on your state the second order of business after keeping the dumps open is suspending any controls on firearms sales or distribution. Florida is not a well state.

Makes sense. When gun owners shoot looters they need a place thats open to dump the bodies.

One thing I can be sure of, is that @brenthutch won't be anywhere near these things, nor will he have any of his airborne-vet courage to tell people actually affected, to their face, that this is a below-average season.

 

Oh and given how republicans are so "independent" and pro "small government" why are they asking for so much government help in the aftermath in NC?

Funny how my brother, who lives in Orlando, and I were just having that conversation yesterday my vicious little friend.

Brent just racking up those L's huh.

Probably why he's resorted to winning arguments against imaginary lefties. He'll be gone from this thread until the start of the next hurricane season, or at least a lull between hurricanes.

Hurricanes are still difficult to predict. Brent's behaviour, however, is very easy to predict.

Nothing that can happen, changes the fact that we had an abnormally slow start to hurricane season. With “climate expert” Michael Mann predicting more than thirty named storms we still have quite a way to go.

The people in NC are rejoicing.

Quick goalpost change there - nobody predicted "quick starts to hurricane season" because of climate change.

The predictions were more frequent and stronger/more destructive hurricanes due to high sea surface temperatures.

 

You cherry-picking a number from Michael Mann is yet another goalpost change (and strawman argument since none of us made that prediction here).

This is going to be one of those times you end up arguing with yourself over what that actually means, isn't it?

and we have a higher than average 'middle and ending' to the hurricane season.  what say you?

Of course you will ONLY admit that your original title is factually correct, therefore all climate change discussions have been debunked and climate science is voodoodaddy....

No we have had a below average to the middle of hurricane season, your only hope is that we have an above average late season

Who in the Great Wide Fuck is hoping for any of this?!?!?  Stronger storms are a reality of climate change.  The science is pretty clear, and actually pretty easy to understand for anybody willing to pull their fingers out of their ears long enough to learn about it.

Nobody is hoping that you're wrong and that more people suffer devastation...some people are trying to point out how ass-backwards your predictions are, but methinks they're underestimating how dug in you are....I know I gave up a while ago

So you've gone from "this season is not going to meet predictions" to "the season is going to be bad and it will be your fault for wanting it."  While claiming you were right all along.

You could give George Santos a run for his money.  Ever considered politics?

and the 'M' named storm arrived much earlier than other 'M' named storms in most other years, but thanks for verifying that you will never admit that you are wrong, even if you are wrong.

Texas mayor suggests nuking Hurricane Milton: ‘It may save more than it hurts’

A Texas mayor suggested an unusual remedy to stop Hurricane Milton ahead of it making landfall: by nuking it.

Bobby Lindamood, the mayor of Colleyville, took to Facebook to share the bizarre idea with his network.

“For the amount of destruction the next hurricane is bringing, it’s time to throw a simi nu/ke bo//mb  (minus the radiation) at this dude and see if we can stop the rotation. It may save more than it can hurt,” he wrote on Facebook.

“Just casting thoughts and ideas. This gonna be bad,” he wrote on Facebook.

Lindamood told The Independent that his insights were simply an “expression of deep concern” for those in Milton’s path.

Maybe we could bury some smaller nukes under Tampa and detonate them just before the hurricane gets there.  If it lifts Tampa up by 20 feet it could keep them above the storm surge.

I mean, it can only help, right?
