Protecting your virginity



Lol Florida is about to get sawed in half



Not really, this is a little bitch storm even compared to Irma. A low category 1 that just squeaked into hurricane category by sucking up all of that globally warmed Gulf of Mexico water. Still going to be a pain in the rear end for Tampa Bay and Nature Coast residents. Anyone else riding this thing out? Hoping there's no flooding. I'm worried for my mom who literally broke her hand yesterday and can't do any house preparations whatsoever.

Eta is boring now it's on track to shoot over Florida riding the cold front. The Eta im interested in is the drunk as gently caress Eta spinning donuts in the gulf after a wild and wet weekend in central america.

Eta's ETA is tomorrow morning. Also I don't know what the gently caress is up with the name, global warming must have taken all the good ones this year lol

The counties it’s headed directly towards are both Blue.

As a resident of that coastal county.... its barely even raining lol. I went out back and flipped the trampoline over but that’s all the preparation I bothered with.

I’m not digging the tornado watch. Our electricity is good, and we’re too poor to own a house affected by storm surge.

Once we run out of the year's pre-approved list of names, they switch to greek letters. Theta is out in the central atlantic and Iota will be forming in the Caribbean in the next few days.

This is the most named storms in a single season since we started naming storms.

In retrospect, convincing my customer to have me work for him tomorrow in Tampa may have been a mistake. I need the money, so whatever.

I live in the tampa bay and so far its just been wind and rain; its supposed to ramp up around midnight though

there were at least two tornado watches so far but thankfully none near where I live

I'm shocked our power hasn't go out yet. Even tempted fate by shaving head and beard after my shower. Last decent storm everyone behind us had power and we didn't, now it's the other way around. Just five or so houses, too.

Meanwhile there's a duck floating down the road.

Oh those weren't watches, those were actual warnings. One was a waterspout off of St. Armands and Siesta key, at least as indicated by radar.

A few more years and a few more degrees and we’ll have permanent tropical weather. I won’t have to worry about putting in that sprinkler system.

I'm very near where its supposed to make landfall (about 20 minutes south), but I already had irma roll over my house with no major issues, so eta can keep loving off north to like suwanee or wherever.

Besides I already checked "piss into the eyewall of a hurricane" off my bucketlist.

Edit: nvm, its projected landfall has shifted about another 20 minutes north of me. Pansy rear end baby storm.
