LoL... Backing in. Pinch me I am dreaming if that was ever attempted!

Sorry... Too deep way too deep. Carry on.

Where is Election Day there. Voters love storms. It ain't a jet plane with Nose-Wheel steering. I will shoot video of my wife pulling the car into the driveway. You'll have greater appreciation for Dorian's track. LoL...

That's razor close. I almost wonder if it does less damage just slamming into one smaller point... Then taking the whole coast in a path of damage. Like a scratch on a car. One dent on fender vs. a narrow one on three or four panels! $$$$$$ wise this will be alot!

Honestly... Yes... It sounds harsh. But, is it? My old man would have handled it the same way... Maybe sans the scolding part, that was a bit over the top for 2019. People really should take swimming lessons. All humans have ability to swim. Also... Should have one of these in your vehicle: Get to the roof...

Nice... That's what I thought it was at first .. Looked like a gunstock. Figure, back in those days, you had one smokey shot at the enemy before they were all over you like ugly on an ape... You miss, better have a back up plan! ?

I am just waiting for Dorian to get sucked into the "Salmon Cannon" between the Jet Stream & the High over Bermuda:

AWESOME! Yeah... What is that thing he is swinging... Does it have an official name?

I cried when Johnny Rambo had to surrender in: First Blood. You should have too, unless your NOT an American!

The Last of the Mohicans Alice's Suicide But... Then Natty opens up a can of dual muzzleloading whoop-ass! And Chingachgook unloads on Magua which quickly dries the misty eye: Then there is the final duel in Rob Roy... These are man card foggy eyes! ^^^^^

I always figured you for a "Beaches" or "Ghost" kinda guy. Not that there is anything wrong with that. ? Me: But... I am a Commie...

I'd shiv the Mofo!

The called that "the stadium effect."

LoL... You tell him!!!

One coast rejoice will be another's pain. Too bad it can't hook out to sea like a Trump hook on hole 5! LoL... I take that's a "Bermuda High?"

Interesting fact... 1/3 of time... A storm will NOT pass through the predicted cone of uncertainty. I have a hunch it ain't passing east!

My Niece from Vermont is a sophomore @ UNC-Wilmington.

Yup! I'd almost try anything right now. Can we still *NukeIt©? *But steer it over Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens first? Then NukeIt©? J/K!!!!!!!

Window guy told my sister... Nothing may stop CAT 5. The windows they replaced go to 175. Door, sliding glass door is $10,000. Yet behind patio/balcony shutters.

180 sustained. 220 gusts. Sure is a perfect looking storm... YIKES!

I was spot on a day ago... There is no low in sight (outside of Dorian of course). Watch @ +2:45... It will ride the trough between two split highs:

Yeah the high on central part of country. Like you said: "Funnel"...

My sister is just shutting things off... Shutters closed, power and water off and leaving Stuart now. She's right on the ocean, yards away. Said... It was a ghost town. Two highs. One over the Ocean above. One over The States. Got no where to go, being blocked. Like poster said, best bet, ride the groove between them if the high over Bermuda nudges east.

Mushrooms with me. But my trigger @ 10 years old was my older sister calling them: Fungus. Which the are, right? I must have made piece with my inner fungi. I can eat them since I was 45. Not sure what helped me cope??? Next step: Olives & Coffee. I really want to like olives and coffee. They seem like noble foods. Who wouldn't love a good tapenade and cup of coffee in a classy cafe. For now I am stuck eating a doughnut and drinking a Coke (from the soda fountain) at a DunkinDonuts. /smh
