I get that, but in the Bahamas, tourism and finance are their big money makers. There is money there and a government that should have a system in place to protect its' citizens from their one enemy, the weather.
We will see a system put in place after this.

Maybe it's the point of your gif, but for some reason that gif isn't moving at all (rotation, either) on my computer screen.

That was also discussed earlier. I believe the gist was that, while abnormal, it is possible.
Dorian seems to play by Dorian's rules.

There was another area south of where we live in Abbeville that was wiped out after a hurricane in this area. Just can’t remember the name of it. South of Esther and Henry from what I remember reading.
Delcambre,or something like that? They rebuilt the town but a few miles away.

Couple hundred people are riding out the storm in a church in Freeport.

No delay of any significance.
The move north is coming. This delay was forecasted. The players are in place. Dorian should be moving north, slowly, by tomorrow.

Why aren’t they swimming south away from the storm

They should have all gotten on their yachts and sailed away from the storm.

What do you mean? What kind of system?
You think this is the first hurricane Bahamas has ever seen?

Apparently, they just lack midwestern sensibility.

Thanks for your contribution here. We’ve been in the crosshairs for a week in south FL so I’ve been following the frick out of this thread.
I heard the NWS hurricane head say a few hours ago they think it will be affected by that trough around 1 or 2 a.m. and start the push north. Sound about right or has something changed?

Probably going to get flamed but why do people continue to try and live on these islands that get hit at least every decade?
Like what is going through the mind of a woman who gets pregnant and wants to start a family on an island that should be uninhabitable except for those with the means to leave at a moments notice? Seems pretty selfish to start a family on a land that in the near future be the target of a hurricane.
