    it’s funny because what normally would be barely organized tropical storms or depressions like instantly explode into Cat 4 and 5s now

    the storm might have still hit Fl in a more climate stable world but it would have just been a rain event. instead looks like Tampa, Sarasota, or maybe Fort Myers are about to get 12ft of storm surge

    load up google maps and look at the ridiculous, mind bogglingly stupid neighborhoods just built on sandbars with little canals. all McMansion ranches crammed together, with their glass enclosed pools and boats.

    now imagine them under 12ft of roiling surf

    for those that wish to witness nature’s power and to help stimulate the imagination
