It sounds like a compelling argument at at first but it is not the case.
See Omnipundit reply to you or read about Broken Window Fallacy here

After H Michael ripped through the Panhandle and SE corner of Al and SW Ga the people who made money were in construction, sold blue tarp, ran tree services,, hauled trash etc. but the majority in the impact area spent money trying to find alternate shelter elsewhere, not to mention jobs lost due to businesses destroyed. And that was 8 months plus if not still ongoing.

It is stimulating the economy right now through clicks on TD and The Weather Channel. So if it turns back out into the ocean and does no damage then it would be a net positive because of clicks

I'm so glad Ron DeSantis is the Governor of Florida. Could you imagine if Andrew Gillum was on the weather channel right now telling people to stock up on neck bones.

The first lady of Florida is an absolute smoke show. He should have her there.

I thought he was going to prison?
ETA: I just saw he got a sweetheart deal, and was let off with only a $5k fine. He is pretty corrupt to be so young.

TWC to be sure.
How much does Chicken pay us for clicks? I was told checks were in the mail!

Miami still near being in the cone. If this thing would happen to jog south like that, is the NE steering still supposed to happen?

I get paid for upvotes and downvotes, not based on clicks. I’ll work on that for my next contract renewal.

Shitshow forecasting, all based on an Upper High that isn’t really there.

And will not have learned a single thing from the experience.

Supposedly. Turn early, turn often.

No what I was saying is if we hit the bottom of the cone, will that mean the steering is gone, or just delayed?

I have friends who cancelled their trip to Key West this weekend from Louisiana. Way better safe than sorry but it's just funny how this stuff works out. Storms do what they're gonna do.

That would delay it and put it at my house on Tuesday. Put that out of your mind.
