I'm More worried about the camera man filming the feed on that rig. How will he get back to shore in time when it gets real Hairy?

Now the rain intensity may degrade the signal enough to lose connection however. Tends to happen with those.


For anyone interested this is a link to a buoy nearby that records wind speed and direction for the Frying Pan. I posted it before but it seems a lot of people want to see what happens to the flag .

Eta, also has wave heights.

if the flag starts to go before the camera transmission... I may have to stand up in my office, put my hand over my heart, and belt out a hearty Pledge of Allegiance

I remember playing golf the afternoon that Ike was blowing in. The wind was about 30 consistently. With huge gusts. I hit an 8 iron from 120 yards flush. It hit its apex and then came backwards toward me. Total distance about 70 yards. Lulz. Was fun on the downwind holes tho.

That link also has wave heights, 20' waves are forecast later in the day, along with 70 mph winds .

We will see if the flag can persevere.

Mangkhut. Badass name for a hurricane/typhoon.

Unlike Florence which is a bitch name.

Also I wish we used the term “super hurricane” like AZNs use “Super Typhoon.” Also badass.
