How bad is it there? I'm trying to find up to date videos, but all I'm seeing is moderately severe winds in Mérida and Cancun just seems a bit stormy.

Seems like it steered North enough to avoid anything catastrophic

It'll still be bad for the costal regions, but avoiding landfall will hopefully cause the damage to be more limited. Even though that means Tampa is totally fucked now

I mean yes, but can you be suprised at this point?

Luckily comrade Milton and friends have saved their strength for the USInc. of A. Put into perspective, when the weather is actually severe, like Helene, the electricity and/or water may be turned off for a time to protect the infrastructure, that did not happen this time. Confirming that it was only a bit stormy for a few hours. Didn't even notice it tbh. Hope Floridian comrades can stay safe.

I remember a lot about Katrina and now it seems like that same part of the country is just going to get hit by hurricanes larger each month on a regular basis. Part of the problem with Katrina was government incompetence and not being ready for it. Not a lot has changed since then. I think they reinforced some sea walls?

Rapidly approaching the era of days where eons happen

Same as it, ever was

Also life expectancy is getting shorter
