We’re in the thick of it now here. Trees down, bunch of people without power, roofs/shingles lifted up, street lights and signs down, but nothing catastrophic. Absurd amount of water though, lots of flooding.

My neighbors bought one of those big storage dealys that go on top of your car for their BMW Wagon… Packed that fucking thing to the hilt and took off. I’ll go ahead and say they dident decide to go on a spur of the moment camping trip :rofl

People are making this out to be WAY more then its going to be, even if we do get “worse” case scenario, yea sure we might lose power and some shit might get wrecked, but I doubt your house is goign to fly away…

People seem to be freaking out like the great floods are comming :rofl

the world is ending.

Atleast thats the mentality around here.

Seriously you can live without a flash light and dont need bottled water. Even if the power goes out the faucets will still work and since we’re supposed to get 12 feet of rain theres gonna be plenty of water.

Its not winter so nobody is gonna freeze to death.
