I didn't watch bc it's too long.

Cliffs?
Khalid quit quicker than anyone on the shows history, asked to switch plates because he thought his wings were given more hot sauce than seans, then after the switch took place, he didn't even try another wing. He quit on wing 3 out of 10, and was a total bitch in doing so, claiming he is "very smart."

Just to give you am idea of where Irma could go, here's a map of 2005 hurricane paths:

It's expected to turn north at the end of this cone. It's not expected to head into the Gulf of Mexico.



The question is whether it goes a more due north direction and just brushes Florida with its outer bands (like Hurricane Matthew last year) or if it goes northwest and hits us directly.

Not looking good.

If it's looking shitty why haven't you left?

Still way too far out to know for sure what's gonna happen.

Businesses won't close until we're certain there's gonna be a direct hit (so I can't just leave and not show up to work), and it'd be a waste of time and money to leave too early for something that might not have a strong impact on us.

There isn't a flood threat in South Florida like there is in Houston.

Have you prepped for a quick escape? You have an RV or something loaded ready to fuck off if need be?

If they order an evacuation, how much will Uber spike their rates?

Unless it's a cat 4 or 5 I'll ride it out. With well-built houses and buildings, you're ok with a cat 3 and under as long as your windows are covered (either with plywood or metal shutters).

If it's a cat 4 or 5 and we are going to get a direct hit, I'm not staying around. I'll pack up all my necessary shit, board up my windows, and drive north until I get to a place that I'm 100% sure I'll be safe in.
