Here is my fav GOES East page for viewing storm motion, pointed at the hurricane in question

I've always been fond of the wind map at https://earth.nullschool.net

Centered on the storm: https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/orthographic=-79.23,26.87,3000

(Be sure to click the "earth" tag at the bottom to expose all the various controls.)

We never see anything in realtime for long after landfall unless it's a wet fart rain-event, even in the US. The internet always goes out shortly after the power. We only know about the car warsh because that happened at the very beginning of the storm. Nobody remembers that jeff fell off the map a few minutes later and spent the rest of the night struggling to tweet that he was ok from a nearby walmart

So a hurricane is basically the War of the Worlds aliens. "Once the tripods start to move, no more news comes out of that area."

And the webcam's red glare
In moving masses of air
Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there.

So is there a guy in maple leaf underwear standing defiantly in the hurricane-force winds with a giant Canadian flag? I figure that guy must be a universal thing.

Imagine having to drive a 40 story crane from one site to another on the other side of the state

No problem, there's a shortcut under the 11foot8 bridge.

I don't know where you are in the world/US. But from what I understand charcoal filters are even too expensive. Municipalities just want to get the chunks and dirt out and add a bit of bleach to kill bacteria and call it a day. Highly variable though depending on where you are in the USA. Many places do different things and you may be completely correct for Colorado.

Just in case anyone is reading this, going :stare: and resolving to only drink bottled water from now on... US drinking-water standards for tap water are actually higher than the standards for bottled water. (Both can be considered perfectly safe, though, unless you're in Flint.)
