Hurricane Milton rapidly strengthened into a Category 4 hurricane Monday on a path toward Florida population centers including Tampa and Orlando, threatening a dangerous storm surge in Tampa Bay and setting the stage for potential mass evacuations less than two weeks after a catastrophic Hurricane Helene swamped the coastline.
Officials said they are preparing for the largest evacuation since Hurricane Irma in 2017 when about 7 million Floridians left their homes.
“This terrible tragedy is because of the gays” - Pat Robertson
Also climate change is a hoax. - probably also Pat Robertson although at least that fucker’s already dead.
There are a whole trump load of Magats that infested that area of Florida in recent years. If we’re relying on Pat as our local weatherman, you would have thought the hurricane would approach further south.
Same thing up in those Western NC mountains. Asheville may be a cesspool of sin, but everything around and it is a sea of red.
All schadenfreude aside, this whole hurricane season really really sucks. I hold a lot of sympathy and empathy for those just trying to live their lives. We as a collective community are not doing enough fast enough and we need better leadership in place that will bite the bullet here and make the hard political decisions that need to be made.
