Hurricane Isaias

a reply to: midnightstar
Been on the east coast of Florida almost my whole life have been through them all. It's not easy rebuilding a city. Panama City is really nothing like the rest of Florida, kinda strange to judge a state by 1 tourist town. I've never in my life met a Floridian that actually wanted to move to Cali. The treasure coast is beautiful especially the beaches, it's very laid back. Cali is a different world have been there a few times visiting family and of course they are family that think there better than everyone, the Cali way.

Ok, thank you for contributing, I'm sure your post will help others, keep them informed and safe.

Just curious do you just like get random urges to bash Trump no matter what the thread is about? Do you have no impulse control? If you have a problem with the NOAA make your own thread about it. This is about hurricane Isaias and members keeping others informed about current weather conditions and staying safe.

Buzzfeed has some interactive maps that show projected tropical storm and hurricane force winds.

Thank you for that, I checked it out and it appears they get all there maps and images straight from NOAA, even says it under each pic. BuzzFeed definitely has more information to read. NOAA is mainly maps and advisories and it doesn't have ads or pop ups. I also like how BuzzFeed broke everything down and also touched base on covid testing sites.

Some footage as it went through the islands

Lol, 70mph maximum. That's funny. I may break out the old longboard with my sheet on a pole, to go wind skating.

lmfao. I used to do it with roller blades when I was younger, was alot of fun, completely forgot about that.

The winds are obviously not a big concern, it's the flooding I'm worried about in my area. But it's moving pretty quick and I have an SUV. Honestly I'm bored, just waiting for it to come through, hopefully get some good pics and hope nobody gets hurt.

Bah, it didn't even rain here. Good waves though.
