Looking like it’s going to be a Wednesday night thing

Hopefully it just comes on shore as a weak Cat1

Best case scenario is it shuts things down Thursday and Friday and we have a long weekend

Seems faster than usual for such a localized development.

You're still pretending you actually have people in your life that give a fukk about you??

Keeping an eye on it. I'm outside of the walls(right side inner wall is where it's hell) so I expect to maybe lose power. Stores making a killing on water sales though. shyt's gonna take months for them to drink it all when nothing happens.

I'm trying to guesstimate a ratio of storms that form in the Gulf/Caribbean Sea vs out in the Atlantic, but I'm drawing a blank.

The last thing anyone needs is storms that start forming a few hundred miles offshore in 12-36 hours and just launching towards land. At least when they spool up in the Atlantic you have time to prepare.
