Just picture the headline if you guys end up dying and once you do you will know you shouldn't.

Really sad to hear how much damage Irma is already doing, though at sustained winds of 185mph I can't say anyone is surprised. Irma is kind of terrifying.
I just saw that JetBlue has capped flights out of Florida at $99, so that may be a good option for folks.
Strange to see your avatar in here, as Chan Marshall tweeted earlier today that she was evacuating out of Florida. Guess she was there for a show?

I mean, maybe just think about taking this one weekend off and see how things go? I feel like prioritizing DnD over the strongest hurricane ever recorded is playing into all the worst nerd stereotypes there are.

I know that feeling. My mother is St. Thomas and I lost contact as well.

Just wait to see how it is Sunday. Doesn't seem like a decision that has to be made immediately.

Welp, went to Publix, did what was required.

Have family visiting Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. Anyone know what to expect in that area? Any place I can check to find it? I think it's supposed to be passing through tomorrow.

Sorry to hear. :-( I am still trying to stay positive.
Your friend/group member is an idiot.
Another great reason why JetBlue is the best.

The Buffalo chicken tenders sub from Publix is simply the best. Every now and then the footlong is on sale for $5. Stomach busting every time. Sooooo good.

The teacher is something else or probably forced by the school admins?
Also, what the heck is 'American' Math?
A Cat 5 Hurricane is basically a reaaaaally big F3 Tornado, so you're not far off.
As a small mercy, it looks like PR isn't going to get a full frontal hit. I imagine it'll still get torn up pretty bad, but a straight on hit could have been far more devastating.
On the flip side, that just means more time in the ocean to maintain strength...

Hurricanes that strength span tornados that strength.

See, in America, the greatest common factor is always Texas for every number and group of numbers.
Also we only use Arabic numerals ironically out of contempt for anything that's vaguely foreign.
Except, notably, almost everything we use in day to day life.
It doesn't make sense, it's not supposed to make sense. See, American schools teach you the exact wrong way, so you have an easier time figuring out how to do it the right way. If we show you everything that's WRONG, whatever's left must be right, right?
I got a Publix sub today and got a bone shard in my buffalo chicken tender sub.
Days later, the hurricane passes... All is quiet...

Is the house you play at sturdy?
I already had to tell my roommate we aren't having a hurricane party after he asked me if he could have friends over after the fact of telling them they could stay at our place. Like Jesus dude at least take it a bit seriously, it's a cat 5 not a tropical storm or cat 1

This thread is really bizarre - heartbreaking pics of hurricane devastation and sandwich discussion. Take it to the publix thread, jeez.

The publix thread was a spinoff of this thread. This is a Florida specific thread and we have a couple of days until it hits us, so yea

this. we're working through stress down here. changes of pace are good.
Jesus Christ, that is heartbreaking. I'm honestly blown away that there was only 1 fatality. Most people kept their lives which is the most important thing but still, losing everything you own is just devastating.

It's very early yet. I can't imagine there was only one death (though the population is quite small).
What is Greek Math? Like geometry? Pythagoras?

I am writing a murder mystery that will include the detective, the suspects and an alligator all stuck in a Publix during a Cat 5.
I need to beat Hiaasen to the punch.
Better yet, find an indigenous bird species being threatened by a publix being built. Take that hiaasen

Oh, Florida Man will have a prominent role once I get this thing funded. We'll get Publix to pay for product placement, and name a sandwich after the movie. It'll be phenomenal. Let's all make sure to survive this storm and we'll spend the rest of our lives never wanting for chicken tender subs.
I would believe it, but what is the source on the pictures and why is there a Russian text overlay?
I still remember I had to read "Hoot" for school by flashlight during Charley. That is all I will ever associate hiaasen with for the rest of my life
See the link - seems to be a reputable French meteorology website.
