Dr Jeff Masters Category 6 blog, and comments


Blog is excellent, comments require some reading to figure out who knows things. You'll see all sorts of half baked commentary but there are some guys and gals on there who do know their stuff.

Remember him commenting on Master's blog back in the Ivan/05 days. There's no one better at breaking down the storm in a way the average joe can understand. Pretty much required viewing when watching storms.

This is my go to, most of the posters know their weather and a few pros who add a lot to the discussion. Again though, not everybody knows what their talking about. You can generally tell by their location if it's wishcasting or sober analysis.

Looks like we're getting some model consensus on landfall Thursday overnight in the immediate Wilmington area:


Yup...but the question is what's that yuuuge bitch going to do once she makes landfall.

A lot of the projects/hoods are in Wilmington; and unless someone sends them a car and by force they never leave

Not to get too poliboard, but I bet quite a few politicians and members of the MSM are licking their chops at the prospect of these people staying and being in harms way. They probably have the speeches and reports ready to go for this weekend. How long before this is made all about Trump?


After Katrina and Harvey, the state (N.C. in this case) would be responsible.


However, the Stafford Act dictates that the local government contact the state government which contacts the federal government in order to get assistance. That was the issue with Katrina. If you remember, Mayor 'Chocolate City' Nagain was very late in contacting Governor Blanco. By law, the State did not have a directive to send help to New Orleans and Bush did not have any way of being able to assist. Just because of one incompetent official.

Heres an interesting observation, Brunswick Nuclear Plant is about 18 miles south of Wilmington NC right on the water.

So basically what we're looking at is a reactor breach that results in flying giant mutant rattlesnakes in a hurricane.

Looks like that facility is a 2 reactor facility.

I am genuinely curious what they are going to do to keep the rods cool in event of power failure.

I don't blame the chucktown folks for not leaving, but if I'm in the dirty myrtle my arse would be on the road.
