Last hurricane we went through my oldest daughter made sure that we had the ingredients to make a Hurricane. I had one then switched to martinis. Yeah and don't forget some Muscadine Vine to puff on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarheel Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Well lets have a cocktail and take the edge off. A bowl of pistachios and 3 fingers of Maker's Mark with an ice cube. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about #1 on the list, I would think that should go to a once was brownie, or as apparently say in NC a LF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted September 13, 2018 Moderators Share Posted September 13, 2018 Slowed down to 100 mph, a very good thing, the extra 30-40 mph or more would have made it much worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-js- Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 true. but also - as of 1700 EDT, forward progress = 5 mph. so it's still moving very slowly, maybe even slower than before. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted September 13, 2018 Moderators Share Posted September 13, 2018 I don't know the area but I would guess there is normally a beach on the water side of those rocks, it's over that and probably has a long way to go before it's over. Looks like a great place to be the rest of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a great place to be the rest of the year. They might still be okay. There looks to be at least 6' of height below the ground floors of all those homes. 6' is quite a lot. I'm glad to hear the storm has weakened; I assume this means less surge, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
