Ya'll stay safe... https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/storminfo/ this guy is pretty good, tells you way more about hurricanes than you ever wanted to know Last edited by phatdaddy; 09-05-2017 at 06:57 PM.

			Totally agree Phat...  This one is a killer.  Biggest Atlantic hurricane ever recorded.  Cat 5 with winds @ 185mph right now.  NOT to be taken lightly.  Batten down the hatches boys, she's fixin to blow.

			making early plans now. Getting a couple boats finished up and out of the shop, going to pack the rest in place. The house is in pretty good shape, we'll probably ride it out here(41 ft above sea level). Trying to make my mind up about going to Sneads Ferry(3 ft above sea level), I'll make that call Friday. Got the Mckee and about $1000 in lumber sitting on the ground in the back yard that I don't want to float away. I was supposed to go on a fishing tournament (Outdoor Dream Foundation) with Kendall Saturday, I figure if I need to go to NC, its going to be too windy to fish down here anyway

			We're bugging out Saturday or Sunday, heading due west as far as necessary.  The island thought that Matthew was bad, this one has the potential to make that look timid.  We're packing up everything we can this time -- it's that bad looking.  Only good thing I have to say is that we're thawing some really good steaks and will be eating well the next few nights.  We lost a lot of good meat last year and I'm not gonna let that happen again! Cheers, gentlemen! Everyone stay safe. |
