Kind of crazy but my parents are headed here to ride out the storm.

If you look up Emerald Isle, NC on your weather map you'll see that they're about to take it in the pooper if they stay.

In England white lightning is a cider that bums drink. It (used to be at least) $3.50 (phone doesn't have pound sign) for a 3 litre bottle. It tastes like Terminator piss. And that one bottle was 17 units of alcohol

Good stuff. Makes you wanna quit drinking
Yeah it taste like what I imagine motor cleaner to taste like. My guess, is it's about $125 for a gallon of it. Some guys have it for $100. I've heard.....i don't know for sure tho. Every since those stupid hillbilly outlaw shows come out on tv. The price for moonshine has about doubled.

Lukewarm Carl @willthiswork shutters or plywood? Just curious as they're both effective, but fucking hell plywood is a bitch to put up.

A lot houses here have either accordion shutters (which stay up all year) or hurricane-impact windows, but we're a little more used to hurricanes.

I can imagine it's full panic mode now, but don't be relaxed about preparation. Speaking from experience, you'd rather over-prepare than under-prepare. A category 4 or 5 storm is a life-changing event. Worst I've ever dealt with in a direct hit was a cat 3, and that was the worst experience of my life.

Be safe, and be ready.

I'm far enough inland that I'm not concerned about the wind. They'll be high but not catastrophically bad.

The bigger concern i have is the amount of rain we've already had and the fact that they're calling for 30 inches more. Add in 50/80mph winds and there's going to be some trees dropping all around me.

30" of rain?
Holy shit dude. That's some seriously saturated dirt.
Stay away from the pines. Shallow roots.

Alternatively, if there are any trees you have a grudge against, now is the time to tie a rope around that fucker and show it who's boss.

Or impress your woman and just shove it over with your bare hands.
Just make sure you are pushing with the wind.

Earlier this year, I wedged one tree but didn't make the final back cut. Then I cut another tree down and knocked the one I pre-wedged down at the same time. Tree dominoes.

Yes, I'm a redneck.

Did I tell you about the man from England who killed himself with a tree and an Aston Martin?

Goddammit I just got a message from my program I worked on .They have signed up 2 of the smartest people I ever met ever. That program is destined for success and I'm not part of it anymore. I feel like I got dumped in a box at the side of the road. Woe be me
