Anyone growing on the east coast preparing for Florence?

A lot of folks are just going to be dealing with heavy rain and some wind. I wasn't referring to people living close to the point of impact. At that point, plants are a write-off anyway outdoors. Wilmington is advising their residents to leave if they can, but if they're above the surge, a lot of people are riding it out.

Also, it's not even close to 200MPH winds. It's at 140 right now. It's expected to strengthen to 155, then weaken before it hits the coast.. Some models don't even have it making landfall. I've been watching every update, and in between. Also,you don't need to evacuate 250 miles away. Where the hell do you get your information from? You need to get to a sturdy structure that's out of the flood zone. Tha's all. This is expecting to be more of a rain/flood event than a wind damage event.

Yeah, I've been following meteorologists on Twitter, and their predictions have been ahead of the NOAA releases. Sometimes by a couple hours. Also YouTube, TWC, weather.us, etc, etc, etc. There is a 9-13 foot storm surge where my parents live. They've evacuated.

Hope everyone stays safe.

I'm a little disgusted with some of the weather people. Some almost seem disappointed that the hurricane didn't slam into the Carolina's as a category 4 storm. The flooding is probably going to be bad in many areas. Get your equipment off the floor.

Well that sucked but at least our house is still here and no flooding, even though we were in the very worst city (New Bern, NC). We left town for 8 days; that cost us about $1,500, and the power went out for 4 days so we lost a lot of food in two fridges and a freezer. But I'm not complaining; we're safe and we can always buy more food.
