    category 1s and 2s can be just as bad as 4s and 5s the wind damage will be less but this storm could bring over 30 inches of rain to some places and storm surge flooding will be bad

    HURRICANE FLORENCE LIVE THREAD: Carolinas about to be Flo's Bitch....

    this slo moving ho of a Hurricane is about to give the carolinas the same treatment Harvery gave H-town.....

    winds not too bad by the time she hits, but the rain/flooding/storm surge is gonna wreak havoc....

    at least cnn has had to drop its fake news/anti trump campaign to only 50 percent of its programming to cover this upcoming disaster, instead of the usual 99.01 percent anti-trump fake news....

    good luck to any sbr'ers in the storms path!!!! I know personally what you're about to undergo.....

    For anyone interested there's an app called wect 6 first alert weather that is covering live from Wilmington/Carolina Beach. You can download from the android playstore. I downloaded it on my fire TV box but I get the channel on my local tv also.

    You can also go to their website http://www.wect.com/weather and there's a live link at the top of the page. Of course from their web page you'll have to watch a 30 second add before going live.

    I haven't paid any attention, how bad is it compared to the other ones we've had in the past? Is this just a news story, or is there going to be some serious problems?

    More flooding than anything . I mean 80+ mph wind would hurl jj's carcass all over the coastline but the flooding will be epic simply due to time it stalls and slows down .

    notice that they are not even mentioning wind speed anymore since it is so weak you couldn't even fly a kite in it. now all they are harping on is rainfall totals which will not even be close to what they are predicting. just more hype.

    It's not the category level that makes a hurricane dangerous. The more dangerous hurricanes are the ones with heavy long lasting rain like this one. They will be under water by Sunday along the coastline. Anyone within a mile of that coast better start running NOW! Or you better have a good raft and some survival skills that could match a Navy Seal. This will be no joke folks.
