Hurricane Milton

How does a person settle down in a state like Florida with constant hurricanes? Wouldn’t you be worried about your stuff being destroyed constantly?
Honestly I like the lack of state tax but once I save up for a house I'm thinking about fucking off northward again because my career can have me live anywhere now. The hurricanes aren't the reason though as they're really not as bad as you'd think. I've went to work during more than one of them. The heat making it impossible to breathe during certain months is the fuckery I just can't deal with.

I'd vouch for socal, great weather year round (if no fires).
Except it's expensive as shit, full of faggot politicians/laws, and hell on earth levels of traffic.

Sorry bro, there's no way in hell I'm stepping foot near the west coast states. Also Florida is a stand your ground state and that's a very important factor.
 
>It was, in fact, a nothingburger
How am I always right? It's a curse being this High IQ, lemme tell you.
It's funny to read posts like these while having been out of power for 12 hours (likely to be out for days after as well) and directly weathering very strong parts of the storm for half of that. Enjoy your hot meals and non-rocked home broski.
 
Damn, that shit reminds me of hurricane juan back in september 2003. Ended up without power for 13 days and that was getting lucky. There were a few rural areas that took nearly a month to get the power and road access back up and running for. Parts of halifax looked like a war zone for an entire year and practically everybody with a pickup truck and a chainsaw was asked to help clear roads of fallen trees so emergency vehicles and such could get around. Everything was flooding in many towns and I literally saw sheets of metal roofing flying through the air, and ended up randomly coming across some over a year later in the woods that got dumped there by the storm. People went absolutely batshit on that one. But yeah, one thing I can say for NS is with the amount of hurricanes and major snow/ice storms they get there they have some of the best trained and experienced power and road crews in north america, which is likely why they sent out that convoy to florida before the storm. The governor did well in arranging for their help. Its good to see someone in the government knows what they're doing in situations like this

Literally the last time you posted that, it was followed up in the same exact minute with this happening:

FORT PIERCE GET TO FUCKING SHELTER IMMEDIATELY

I wouldn't call that, along with the tornado outbreak that rocked Florida earlier today that has arguably become a record breaker, a "nothingburger".

If it's within your means a large battery bank and camp stove will make the days to weeks after more bearable.

If you are feeling more adventurous:

But normally I stick to canned goods.
 
Took the truck two streets over to check on our friend who lost power. Went out to make sure it didn't float away then said let's some snooping. That ended fast. Back inside comfy mode with by Boston.
