Not a joke
I feel for those poor dogs. Its not their fault their owner isn't right in the head. They are literally right on the water, that whole place will probably be destroyed.
Not a joke
"Luckily" they are in Zone D and only A is a mandatory evac
I would say that if be excited for them to shoot, but it would definitely hit people other than the shooters so I'm not down with that.
I'm watching some meteorologist in Naples, and it looks very mild, tbh.
This is peak "Florida Man"
meh...power going out isnt' a big deal as long as you're prepared. THe looters are the real headache especially if you live around a lot of negroes you need to be armed

Generator up and running. Refrigerator plugged in after power went out 4-5 hours ago. Power outage means no ac - after Andrew was very HOT for 2 weeks before power came back on. Should not be so long this time Power trucks from other states were already here in S FL BEFORE winds came.meh...power going out isnt' a big deal as long as you're prepared.

School out until probably end of the week to empty shelters and allow those wh evacuated to return home My cherry tree is split in two - half on the ground. Cant see my mango tree from this sliding door. Still pretty gusty but dh wanted to get generator going while there was still light
neighbor has a whole house generator that kicked in soon after power went. thing is so LOUD can't imagine how much gas he needs to run that thing i'll be wishing i had that tomorrow when it gets hot dh set up portable ac venting out the sliding glass door but can cool only one room
neighbor is using propane but generator is not fully working - whatever that means

The people of Barbuda, Turks Caicos, Sint Maarten, Cuba, and the Florida Keys would probably take issue with that assessment.
Sure, but it's lost a lot of energy since then.
Don't get me wrong -- it was smart to evaluate, but probably unnecessary,
No one has a crystal ball to see it would lose steam so quickly after hitting the Keys. Back when people started evacuating it was a 185 mph megastorm raping the entire Caribbean. So I wouldn't second guess evacuating for even a second.
it's huge we're still having gusts i wouldnt go outside
Sandy >>>> Irma...
I actually did the math on that exact topic. 10 million pennies is only around a cubic meter or so.
Takes about a billion or so to fill up a large room, if memory serves.
(edit)
Being an OCD person when it comes to such questions:
10 million pennies is approximately a cube of 70 inches on each side. 2 meters by 2 meters by 2 meters.
Making a few simplifying assumptions (such as a penny being a cubic rectangle (.75 inches by .75 inches by .0598 inches)
70 inches on one side divided by .75 is 93.3333 pennies per side flat. A stack of pennies 70 inches tall will have 1170.6 pennies. (70/.0598)
93.3333.... squared is 8711 in one layer times 1170.6 layers is 10,196,952 total pennies.
A ten foot cubed room (120 inches) would have about 51 million pennies. average room only has 8 feet tall. Multiply that by 0.8 is about 40 million pennies.
Bam. Hooray spreadsheets.

yeah, that is definitely a bad idea. Funny in a way, until one thinks about the consequences of 10,000 people randomly (HA) firing guns. I am all for randomness, until it hurts people.
Nothingburger tbh
You never did answer my question.
When is it appropriate to talk about this stuff?
When the president, who thinks this is a Chinese hoax, gets someone to head up the scientific agency studying it who also thinks it is all made up?
?????
