    HURRICANE 2020

    Yeah, lets toss another log on 2020. It's Hurricane Season!

    Looks like I'll be in the cone of uncertainty (I'll look for you, Ice) next week in Chas.

    Hopefully it turns out to sea before then or makes a left and soaks the virus out of Georgia so we can get back to normal.

    I still call it The Jake.

    It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.

    I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.

    What kind of a name is Isaias and how did we get all the way up to "I" already?

    Ike (I can call him Ike, right?) appears to be destined to stay pretty coastal and I am in fact in the cone of uncertainty: https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/gra...?cone#contents

    Some pretty hot water all the way up here, anything could happen: https://www.windy.com/-Show---add-mo....317,-72.510,5

    Trillions of real estate in the path.

    Pretty sure it's all full, too. The east coast ocean market is very good right now.

    ^^lol

    Yup record warm SST's ought to allow it to stay strong pretty far north. There's still a chance it will make landfall in NC or SC and run north inland, in that case we get wet without much wind. If it just bounces off the Outer Banks it will make a run straight at LI or Cape Cod and make a mess up this way. There isn't much to steer it east unfortunately.

    Might be a pretty nice weekend here if it sucks all the moisture with it to the east.

    I know it's be careful what you wish for but I hope we get some moisture out of this thing. Been dry as shit for 2 months.

    Don't worry, the same politicians who are grumbling about people they put out of work getting some extra bucks in unemployment will sign a hundred billion dollar check to rebuild the Jersey Shore again.

    Don’t get me wrong, there some places that make zero fucking sense to me. When I see 8 bedroom tacky-ass stilt houses built on sandbars with 3 feet between them and zero tree cover, dunes or any buffer (god forbid planning) to think of between them and the rising tide, I shake my head.

    I also spend a lot of time on the SE Atlantic coast and it ain’t nothing like that. There’s a reason the same people are still there generations later and not having to rebuild every time a storm comes through. A little foresight and the good sense not to set up camp on a slice of sandbar being two of them.

    I just can’t wait to see what kind of megladon or kracken the storm surge blows in.

    It’ll be totally on-brand for this year.

    The Kracken tends to be a west coast phenomena.

    I think Wooley saw a megladon on his way to school one day, or pterodactyl, I can’t recall. I’ll have to check the Upstate thread.
