Godspeed to all you Mid-Atlantic dwellers. Now GTFO!
2018 Hurricane Season... looks like the fun is begining...

We rode out Bertha that same year. We boarded up the house and went inland (about 20 miles) to a B&B in Supply, NC. I've now been through three tropical storms and the one hurricane, and the amount of rain that these storms put down is what is amazing to me.

Well, I'll be here awhile I guess, I have 5 gallons of gas, a Weber BBQ and a six pack of water. I'll be good.

I’ll be riding this one out too. I’m about 5 minutes from the coast line and a river runs behind my building . They are evacuating most of the county - and everyone on base is leaving except emergency personnel - aka me 
kinda got the short end of the stick.

Ya gonna need more than that. News is saying the Barrier islands will be under water & a 12-15 foot storm surge several miles inland. Low areas even worse. The storm surge may take several days to peak. Especially when the open the Damn at Falls Lake in Raleigh to take pressure off it.Well, I'll be here awhile I guess, I have 5 gallons of gas, a Weber BBQ and a six pack of water. I'll be good.

A friend of mine is fireman in Charleston, I haven't had the chance to talk to him, but I imagine his wife and kids are leaving and he will have to stay. Stay safe.I’ll be riding this one out too.

My thoughts are going out to Jer and his beloved wife Gail who have no choice but to ride out this storm in their Homestead. Check in often, Jer.
Thank you... Good luck @BIGBARNEYCARS , you will be in the thoughts and prayers of many of us.
That sounds really bad... you fella's take care of yourselves up there.
I hope she's changed her mind...Our daughter is living in the path of Florence.
About 3 miles off the coast just north of Mrytle Beach.
A number of residence have chosen not to leave which I don't agree with and our daughter is one of them...
mr. fix it

9/12 - Looks like they still think the Wilmington area will be the target. I saw one map calling for a 6-10' storm surge from Sunset Beach up to Southport, and 10-15' from Carolina up to the Morehead area. @Yeahrightgreer you better have your waders ready if you have to hang around for the party.
Hang in there Jer and let us know you are OK.
