My DIL was just telling me the hubby went into a panic when he got home and I was gone getting some eggs from the farm. I laughed and she said something very insightful......."you can barely even be bothered to care there's a storm coming". Pretty accurate but I never thought about it that way.
Whatever y'all do, just stay safe!
Like, what did the hurricane tell the coconut tree?

I can't like this
Although, I've done the same thing and likely would again
Stay safe Dahlin'
We're good, thank you Bri!

That was my plan with Matthew last year and I'm glad we executed it. You do not stay in an ocean-front place when there's a Cat 3 bearing down on ya.
Well, the guy 4 houses to the north did. He posted some vids on FB. At first, he was like, "No big deal". Then the waves and storm surge started breaking over the dunes and well, his attitude changed, to the point where I suspect he was in dire need of clean underwear.
Flooding is the biggest risk where i am and i'll be ...... off if my lawn is under a foot or more of water. Anywhere will flood if that hangs around for days on end, so we'll see. My house does not typically flood, but some local roads will.
HRH took the car today to stock up on stuff for us and the cats; if i see my shed floating down the road i'll just crack open a another tin and cheer it on. Water and gasoline is being panic-bought.
When Ike rolled through in 2008, i was living in an apartment with only electricity, so when that went out, i also had no way to cook anything. This time i have gas to cook with (we can always bbq here as well) and HRH's phone is a wireless hotspot, so i can run my internet from that.
Going to work Monday may not be an option, unless someone in a big truck can get me thru floods my car will not.

We're 9 miles from the beach with a 22 foot burm in Lake Jackson. When Ike hit there was a 23' surge and we were fine.
Man alive! I couldn't like any of the above posts, you folks live in dangerous areas! All we have in SoCal is earthquakes and brush fires.....Mother Nature's idea of a shake'n bake I guess! Stay safe y'all!
Looking at the projected 'tracks' for this thing; I've never seen anything like it. There aren't any tracks. It looks like it's headed for you and then it's gonna stay there and pound you for several days straight.
All I can say is: Make sure all your batteries are fully charged!
Yep, been charging batteries all day and getting the set up together for the car charger if I run out. Full propane tanks for the outdoor kitchen and all the animals have food.Looking at the projected 'tracks' for this thing; I've never seen anything like it. There aren't any tracks.

I'll be thinkin' of y'all Texans n' such.
Be safe, sure; but most of all be smart!
