mother nature about to deliver what the deep red south voted for.
Can’t wait for them to call FEMA!
Already Arkansas has been denied FEMA funds for tornadoes a few weeks back. The south doesn’t have a chance. Florida about to become uninhabitable.
Not a single magat should be rescued
Who’d rescue them? No fema, no states E.M.A, no rescue, no tents, no hope.

Did you know MS has the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency? I’ve always found it adorable that if you get swept away they’ll send MEMA after you.
And Louisiana has the Cajun Navy.
Trump already ignored sanders Huckabee arkansas
“Let us be thankful, oh Lord, for what we are about to receive!”
These aren’t the people who treat prayer as a sacred thing. They’re the people who think prayer means telling God their wishlist or showing off their morality for others.
I grew up around magats. They’re going to interpret natural disasters as “the end times”, which means if they survive they’re God’s special chosen people, and the people who die or suffer must not have had sincere faith and were living a life of sin.
Until a hurricane threatens their Florida vacation home, then they suddenly give a fuck about humanitarian aid
Look! Those two twigs fell in a cross sign! Jesus speaks to us!
God wills it!
It’s the Hurricane Surprise Season from now on.
Think of all the good things it will get you! No more pesky “evacuation orders”. No more lost time in schools and businesses just because some scientist thought there is a cat 5 coming in and tells you to better stay at home!
You aren’t thinking fourth dimensionally.
If we don’t measure it, it doesn’t exist.
No such thing as a cat 5 hurricane. That’s just gonna be called a “Windy boy”.
Those hit hardest probably won’t call it anything, them being dead.
Hurricanes don’t kill that many people (in the us) because homes are built fairly well due to regulations from prior hurricanes. I’m guessing Florida has rolled that back, but too soon to see major failures. So it’s very likely that a lot of poor people will lose their homes and they won’t have wind or flood insurance, but outside of catastrophic failures like Katrina hurricanes aren’t killers…and Katrina was a human problem. For example the deadliest hurricane in a while killed 150 people. If we didn’t do anything about Boeing we sure aren’t gonna worry about the weather.
US homes maybe more resistant in hurricane countries than elsewhere in the US, but storm intensities are on the rise, and conservatives are not known to be smart about resilience if it costs money “unnecessarily”.
Being rather unprepared will add to the damages. What do people on the coast do when the hurricane comes? They screw boards over their windows. This alone has probably saved a lot of lives. Hurricane strength winds and shards is a nasty mix.
It will get worse, with human lives getting more affected than before.
Well, yes, but it’s still trivially small even if it moves from 1 major storm every 4 years to every 2 or every 1, its still not a particularly large impact in terms of deadliness.
Hurricane proofing houses with boards is…I guess effective. But most homes in hurricane prone areas should really have proper shutters.
Covering windows doesn’t do that much. The big dangers are the wind ripping the roof off, large trees being blown onto the house, and floodwaters rising above the level of the ground floor. I think windows breaking is more of a concern with tornadoes.
Id think the reverse, except the tree point. Lots of people put trees in their lawn that are not suited. Giant palm trees stories high are fine, but a short bushy tree might fuck your house up.
The reason windows are protected is hurricanes while not anywhere as fast as a tornado can still pick up small stuff at ground level and send it through anything near. If a tornado is picking stuff up and throwing it at you, a shutter wouldn’t help.
if people aren’t evactuating they are going to get more deadly. On top of that increased frequency means less time for areas that are affected to recover before the next one hits. Florida could very well end up effectively uninhabitable due to how many of even “minor” ones they are getting.
Definitely in some areas, but it’s not like we’re losing all ability to track these storms. It’s not like we’re back in 1910. More likely is there would be more false alarms (turned at the last second due to things we no longer know how to predict) leading to some people refusing to heed the warnings.
I’m not arguing on habitability just deadliness.
No more worries about rotting meat on the supermarket shelves because … no one’s gonna inspect it.
All they need to forecast hurricanes is a felt-tip marker and a very stable genius.
Everybody knows that hurricanes are caused by gay sex! No forecast needed.
I’ve been doing the wrong rain dance
You’d think there’d be more hurricanes in Utah, then.
Less wind and much more soaking.
Time to organize the world’s largest orgy.

Don’t live near this person.
Too bad hurricanes mainly hit states that voted for Trump. Oh and what’s the status on FEMA now, I can’t keep track anymore. I’m sure they’ll find a way to blame Biden though.
Trump did tell sanders to deal with it, when tornados ravaged her state.
FEMA’s still got ads running in the mountains from the hurricane last year, the one that hit Asheville. So they haven’t completely folded anyway.
It’s like a nazi Germany that completely crippled itself before expanding outwards. I feel bad for (sane) Americans but damn
Marge says the president controls the weather, so they should be okay, right!?
I thought it Obama’s personal weather machine.
Edit: spelling
Maybe he just lent it to Biden…
Round me, they miss calling out a bad hail storm, then abundant warning for one that didn’t amount to much.
Thanks orange turd!
Thanks Trump!
