I don't make the weather, sweetie. I just bet on it like I do the horses. I wish no ill harbor on anyone anywhere. But either way the chips will fall where they will. Maybe some of hurricane victims would do well for themselves in some of these plays, too.

I think that the NHC is purposely giving us erroneous information about Florence's forecast in order to load up on ECCI, NSMG, & WEGI at these levels, and tommorow morning they will announce that Florence will go due west for a US east coast landfall as a CAT3 storm.
It's not like they are ever held accountable for their constant inaccurate forecasts that they post on their website concerning these storms.
