Thanks for the tips... The area around the school is pretty poor/sketchy, but the school grounds are going to be locked down soon.... There may be a couple hundred people here? They brought in truckloads of food and water so I think we're OK for a while. I just found a power cable that'll work for my phone so hope to charge it soon after the owner is done with it

Best of luck man. Keep us updated on your situation.

am i a jackass for being slightly disappointed that the hurricane is hitting at night, which means we won't see any cool videos of mother nature because it's too dark outside?

I will light the fire. Yeah, imagine all the gloom and doom of the most dormant hurricane seasons for the last 10 years since the lie began.

Yeaaaaaah!!! This is the ATOT gold I was hoping for!!

Wow, 200mph. I was in Miami when Hurricane Andrew hit, and the highest recorded wind speed for that one was 175 or so mph. 25mph doesn't SOUND much faster, but it will do tons more damage. Andrew was flipping cars already.
Yeah, that's the thing about wind resistance: The force exerted is proportional to the square of the wind speed.

Strongest Hurricane ever recorded.
A few Super Typhoons have been marginally stronger.

Cat5+ Landfall is TODAY!

I wish Mexico well for this storm, but we owe them nothing.

Not to mention all the other sources of revenue flow from the US to Mexico (remittances, drug trade, etc) and their government's support of their citizens invading the US.

I think Texas will get a lot of grief over it also, in the long run.

I'm going to leave the other crap alone.

I don't think this is the place for political bs, global warming, illegal aliens or whatever, the thread is about this nasty hurricane. Sustained winds over 200 MPH is absolutely mind-boggling.

Jump in your car and find an open road straight into the wind. Put it in neutral and rev it up as you pretend to be going faster than an F1 car. YEEHAW!

Live hotel stream from the beach:

Other than what looks like the beach already being swallowed up from the swell, nothing of wind or rain. Those buildings will be gone though with 40+ surge. Likely the water would be up to the tips of those palms.
