For you "Big Picture guys & gals" - here's the REALLY big picture:

Set the loop for "96" and watch the weather churn.

Very cool....

Yep, we're going to have a bit of a blow... Time to batten down the hatches, break out the generators, and get ready to ride it out.

If you want to come to GA, y’all come on!

You're north of Raleigh/Durham.
I didn't think the Chamber of Commerce allowed hurricanes in that far.....lol

Best of luck - I used to live in New Bern, NC - I get it.
Cheers,

BEWARE = having lived in the FL Keys for 19 years I've gone through dozens upon dozens of hurricanes. I strongly urge everybody in it's path to get out of it! A cat 4 is nothing to take lightly, it will hurt you & everything you own.
Keep in mind, there will be, NO.. 911, fire fighters, EMT's, police & hospitals all closed, no power, no food, stores closed, no water, nothing coming in & you can't get out once it hits ...…………… you're on our own.....it can & will be physically & mentally exhausting... I strongly urge everyone to get out of it's path.

Fortunately we live in a small town where everyone prepares for natural disasters and tend to be self sufficient. We have a tractor run generator that will power everything we have including the well and the house. I also have chain saws and a front end loader for cleaning up storm debris. As a general rule we keep supplies for a month as well as a year's worth of stuff (canned goods and freeze dried food) and medical supplies in case of zombie attack.

My concern is for the people who moved in to subdivisions to get the country living experience and don't know what to do.

Oh well, when the SHTF we will get along as best as we can, God willing.
