      Fun fact, there is actually an official "Waffle House Index" which was coined by FEMA in 2011 after the Joplin tornado. From wikipedia:
      The term was coined by FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate in May 2011 following the 2011 Joplin tornado, during which the two Waffle House restaurants in Joplin remained open.[3][10][11]
      The measure is based on Waffle House's reputation for staying open during extreme weather and for reopening quickly, albeit sometimes with a limited menu, after very severe weather events such as tornadoes or hurricanes. The chain's disaster preparedness measures include assembling and training "Waffle House jump teams" to facilitate fast reopening after disasters.[7] Waffle House, along with other chains (such as Home Depot, Walmart, and Lowe's) which do a significant proportion of their business in the southern US where there is a frequent risk of hurricanes, have good risk management and disaster preparedness. Because of this, and the fact that a cut-down menu is prepared for times when there is no power or limited supplies, the Waffle House Index rarely reaches the red level.[7][3]

      Lived in Fl since 1989. I’ve heard it before, write your name, ss# on your arm or front door. Especially those on barrier islands. The science of Predicting storms’ landfall has gotten excellent. If the county says evacuate and you don’t thats on you. Emergency responders will not go out in high wind and rain to rescue ppl. We are hundreds of miles southeast about 3-4 hrs away and we are having wind gusts. I can hear it now up against the house.

    I went through Katrina in southern Louisiana at almost ten years old. My family mobile home was destroyed and we had to restart, but luckily all of us (cousins, aunts, uncles, etc) went to my grandparents home who was built on solid ground and had generators (we were able to keep up with news and keep our food good). Majority of my parish and surrounding were out of power for WEEKS. I’m almost 28 now, wouldn’t wish that on anybody. Sending good vibes to Florida and if you are already stuck where you are, make you choices wisely, as if your life depends on it❤🫡 edit: bring your pets bruh they don’t know what’s happening and are scared!!!

      This storm reminds me of hurricane Hugo. I lived in Charlotte in 1989, 200 miles inland from Charleston, SC. Hugo hit Charleston, and produced hurricane-force gusts in Charlotte less than 8 hours later, blacking out most of the city. The power line to my neighborhood ran through a patch woods, and power wasn't restored for 11 days. The storm moved on to pour flooding rain on the NC mountains.

It hit out of nowhere it was perfect then boom microbursts. Ares sent that storm so Kratos could incarnate on earth. The rainbow children coming in. The rainbow children are completely incorruptible. They're here to stop the wars. If there is anything ungodly unholy unclean evil and wicked the rainbow kids will remove it from planet earth. Easily. I was the first rainbow child Kratos the second rainbow child Anubis the third rainbow child. These rainbow kids are so protected they're here to stop the wars and bring forth new earth. I'm a blue ray rainbow child volunteer thunder being hand trembler. Might want to activate the rainbow children they can take the heavy blows. Project earth the largest military experiment there is. We have no agenda no ulterior motives no superiority complex just here to help with the ascension process. Removing everything ungodly unholy unclean evil and wicked. Back to how earth was originally intended to be. Exciting and magical and sacred not a war zone. I ward off evil and wicked. Bad guys time to go.

    In 2007, there was a hurricane approaching Louisiana. Two years after Katrina. The female governor made an announcement on TV telling people to evacuate/ that first responders would not risk their lives to rescue people who did not heed the warning. She also said to the die-hards out there "Do us a favor. Take one of those indelible ink markers and write your SS # on your arm so that afterwards, when we find your body, we can identify you much easier".
