Elderly Woman, and a Mother and Infant Child.

Well, my mailbox died. RIP

Pics or it didn't happen

Do NOT forget the inland Nuclear Facilities in South and North Carolina.

The FLOODING ISSUE issue, if there is record rainfall back in the mountainous areas, could be PROBLEMATIC FOR THE DAMS that are both UPSTREAM from those NUCLEAR FACILITIES, and for the LAKES upon which some sit.

I know know I am a bit of a Broken Record on this issue ... but it has been my contention all along that the REAL risk with this particular storm was NOT the Storm Surge or the High Winds when if was coming ashore (even when it was a Cat 4) ... but the projection of RECORD RAINS in the interior of both South and North Carolina and the RISK that those potentially record rains could put on the Nuclear Facilities, of which there are many, inland from the ocean (I never thought the nuclear facilities on the ocean would be a problem no matter how bad the storm ... those two facilities were well designed and prepared for a major hurricane)

My previous posts on this issue are on page 52 and on page 173 of this thread, so I will not repost the data here that I put into those posts.

IF this issue is to arise it is still a solid 3 days out from today ... and of course it would only occur if record rains in the interior of South and North Carolina occur
(we will see if they occur over the next 48 to 72 hours - if not, NO worries :-) )

It was straight earlier but the storm tilted it and then it finally kicked the bucket. I put in the garage. lol

I just went and checked my mailbox; it's still there.

I know, but how?

Got to be bad data

[Right, people that have lost everything now have to show up for court. Fuck you.

I think I will put everything back in the kitchen. I just put it all back on the porch thinking we were okay and then I look at my camera and my mailbox was a goner.

We put all our outside stuff in the shed out back or in the garage. We don't need any projectiles flying around.

yeah, I'm not walking that far to my other garage. Or dragging it up and down stairs. Kitchen is closet. lol

W at 6 mph per 4pm statement

Luis, do you have any experience or knowledge about how long a tropical storm has stayed relatively stationary over a coast such as this?

I mean record-book type stuff? Are we talking days? A week?
