Well it's now day 3 without power, I fear my descent into madness is approaching ever fast and if things keep up this pace I may commit a homicide
But ya know, we all good out here
At the rate it's going, Hurricane Milton looks like it will be incredibly destructive. As of the latest forecast I could find on the weather channel, it was "centered 560 miles southwest of Tampa...a strong Category 4 packing 155 mph winds as of 5 a.m. EDT...tracking east-northeast at 12 mph". According to the NHC, it could potentially be "one of the most destructive hurricanes on record for west-central Florida".
I know it's easy to get jaded with hurricanes and that sometimes, they aren't really bad enough to be worth evacuating for, but from what I can tell, this one absolutely is. If you're in an evacuation zone, leave if you can or find a shelter if you absolutely can't. Please stay safe, everyone.
good morning tumblr! be careful. i have saved a whole load of these to my phone at this point, so...
peak storm surge-
more storm surge - darkest purple is >10 feet, and is worst - though we might need more colours
recent track, showing landfall at 2 am on Thursday rather than 8 pm on Wednesday
75 is apparently completely clogged, as you'd expect at this point. people are leaving en masse and with good reason. there is free transport to shelters through uber in pinellas, hillsborough, and pasco - use it. the promo code is MILTONRELIEF. jim cantore arrived in tampa yesterday. jim cantore.
Hurricane Helpers Collaboration 🌧️
Ansy: I’m teaming up with my friend on IG, PKMN Professor Case, to raise funds for hurricane relief efforts in areas affected by recent storms.
Case: As Hurricane Milton approaches, we’re creating special thank-you art for anyone who contributes to our fundraiser to support those in need. Details coming soon—stay tuned for how you can help!
From both of us, thank you! & if you are/were in the path of either hurricane, stay safe. 🩵
Not my meme but figured I'd share for those about to ride out the storm

A tornado did come close to our house, took out a couple huge oak trees, did some fence and boat damage, but most importantly, my wife's ass is 100%!
We're safe. Thanks for everyone asking.

Hurricanes suck :(
Me and my family are currently safe but power has gone out and it’s loud still we’re doing pretty well so that’s good! We did get a flash flood warning earlier though which is less good. Anyway this is a very different post than usual for me but I can’t sleep. Everyone else is Florida and other affected areas stay safe!

Edit bc I'm seeing a lot of confused international reblogs: this was posted because of Hurricane Milton absolutely demolishing Florida this week after Helene went through and because US insurance agencies are kind of assholes. Stay safe out there and thanks for signal boosting!
