Nowhere near as bad as predicted thankfully.
@edwardjp: more wind in the jax on a Monday morning after a night on the Guinness and curry.
Over in the US everything is so much bigger and stronger and faster and supersized. “We got ourselves a baseball stadium,that dang storm was so fierce it took the roof off” Sure that’s nothing. Come to little ole Ireland. We got ourselves a teeny weeny bike shed,you shoulda seen the storm that caused,mister.
The actual storm is one thing, the tornadoes added to that as a result of the storm system makes for one scary & devastating event.
Milton, fluid situation
@P. V. Aglue: sterile.
Fear and hysteria per usual….should be the motto of the decade.
@Dere: It is amazing how we have all become catastrophe addicts. The media have known this for years but they really have cranked it up since social media came along. Sometimes you’d be sitting in the garden having a cup of tea and you have to remind yourself that you’re not in any danger.
A ferocious storm. Hopefully the alligators did not wash into the stadium
@Buster Lawless: Could have been crocodiles. Do you know how to tell the difference? Say goodbye to one,and see how it responds
@Larry Betts: oh I love it. See you later alligator
@Buster Lawless: In a while crocodile
The stadium cost a fortune and it is nothing more than a glorified shed
I live in Florida. It was a storm in a teacup!
