I doubt Cat 5, but really whats the difference between 150mph and 157 mph?

That whole area of FL is going to be changed, or at least Panama City.

I know that news crews were pulling their people out of the area and having them stay further away. Wish I was home to watch the local news, as it is usually better than national news in covering these stories.

I was in Panama City just after hurricane Opal roared through in 1995. Having never really witnessed the aftermath of a hurricane, for me it was almost and unbelievable amount of destruction.

I wish them all well.

You know what's going to piss me off? All the fucking cowboys who stay with their kids. Unfortunately I think we're going to hear of families disappearing. Those kids are besides themselves with fear right now and a house being torn apart by wind or water.

7 mph intensity.

They’re saying a low end storm surge of 9 feet in an area where I’ve spent a lot of time. Up to 14 feet. There is NO topography there. That large of a surge will wipe it off the map.

I think you mean there's no elevation there. Topography is everywhere.

I know what I mean Floyd. Can it.

by **tGreenWay** Wed Oct 10, 2018 3:48 pm

Floyd.

by **Watch Out Pylon!** Wed Oct 10, 2018 3:52 pm

You guys should take Floyd seriously. He's a smart dude. Go get em Floyd!

by **tGreenWay** Wed Oct 10, 2018 3:57 pm

I don’t know about that. Floyd doesn’t post from work at 4am and 5am anymore, which means he’s not taking work seriously enough. Should we be doing the same for someone who’s been slacking?

by **DWags** Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:12 pm

Will the topography be gone in the morning? what will be in it's place?

by **Robert J Sakimano** Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:13 pm

We 'gon die.

Flatography.

by **tGreenWay** Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:40 pm

I checked tomorrow’s forecast for Florida and there’s a near hunnert percent chance of topography.

Hopefully there’s truckloads of paper towels on the way.

by **Turtleneck** Wed Oct 10, 2018 5:22 pm

I don’t feel like paper towels will be sufficient, Roc. I think they will need more than that to help with the recovery efforts.

You're probably right. Better call in Whitefish Energy.

by **Turtleneck** Wed Oct 10, 2018 6:01 pm

I don’t think a fishing company is going to help either.

Seems like builders in PCB don’t know how to hurricane.

by Senior Dickfist Wed Oct 10, 2018 8:00 pm

tGreenWay, I'll show you how to hurricane!

by **tGreenWay** Wed Oct 10, 2018 8:13 pm

Rock me, Dickfist.

by Senior Dickfist Wed Oct 10, 2018 9:51 pm

Careful what you ask for, big guy!

You’re talking to a guy whose name is dickfest. Tread carefully.

by **Rocinante** Wed Oct 10, 2018 9:55 pm

It would be scarier if it were fistdick.

by Senior Dickfist Wed Oct 10, 2018 10:16 pm

Call me what you will. The outcome will remain the same.

by **kingstonlake** Wed Oct 10, 2018 10:19 pm

They better have that place cleaned up by February damn it.

by Senior Dickfist Wed Oct 10, 2018 10:24 pm

Truth be told, my brother and I came up with a stupid band name when were younger. I actually play guitar and he plays drums. The name of the band was "Dick Fist and the Butthole punchers". Sadly, neither of us have matured much since.

In my experience, that is basically the key to life.

by **DWags** Wed Oct 10, 2018 10:40 pm

I’d pick up an album just cause the name.

by Senior Dickfist Wed Oct 10, 2018 10:46 pm

Floyd, you are correct.
Wags, you get a signed copy for free.

Amazing more weren't killed.

by **tGreenWay** Fri Oct 12, 2018 2:53 pm

Floyd gets an attaboy and a hearty slap on the back.

by **Robert J Sakimano** Fri Oct 12, 2018 3:05 pm

this hurricane seemed to get a lot less attention than Florence.

by **tGreenWay** Fri Oct 12, 2018 3:15 pm

That’s because it surprised the hell out of everybody, Bob. It had been a cat 1 or low 2 with no signs of growth up until a couple of days before it hit the panhandle.

I figured it was because it was hitting the Redneck Riviera.
