With the current map on NHC, is there a reasonable chance we are going to have 5 active storms at once?
ETA: 5 day chance of development for "1" is 70% and "2" is 50%

I haven't been to Wal-Mart. Food lion on IRBY still had lots of supplies no water or bread though
CVS still had a bunch of stuff as well as aldi.

I talked to my wife earlier and she didn't mentioned anything in West Florence but I assume most places are getting low.

Most places near me still have gas. I filled up Monday

This Gulf disturbance won’t be very strong, but Lake Charles is on the NE of the development. I’m assuming, by the looks of the size of it, there will probably be some rain involved.

Ya, I'm going to fill up after work after this latest Euro shift.
Not worried about flooding because my house sits up on a small hill in Forest Acres, but losing power would suck.

You didn't flood s few years ago? You choose a nice spot lol

The beaches in the low country are already so eroded. This storm is going to wreak havoc. It's sad.

Yeah I saw they were trying to replenish myrtle beach before this came.
Ah well
Ah well

My mom's house is in Johnsonville. She has large pine trees around her house and they have withstood Hugo, other hurricanes, and ice storms. If this storm follows the euro, I have a feeling this would be the breaking point.

Ha - I'm in Forest Acres too,i think we made this connection during the 2015 flood.
Best of luck

Goodbye Ocean Course in Kiawah. Not important in the grand scheme of things, but damn! Awesome golf course!

I used to camp at Hunting Island when I kid into my teens. The cabins and road on the other side of the dunes had been swallowed up years ago. The tent camping areas might be gone after this. A buddy told me that the old primitive camping area was under water already. I had great memories there. Sad to see it go.

I'm supposed to play there in late October. Hope it survives unscathed.

It looks like a rainmaker in an area that has gotten a good bit of rain the past two weeks

Doubtful. I would expect at least parts of it to be marshland.

Hope so. Still sometimes the real thing is different. Question is how high are the generators above sea level and how strong is the facility against a 20ft wall of water? My concern would be generators drowning out and not running
