Oso planning to go pro
Fiona's path is heading directly towards one of my favorite places in the world. I don't think they have seen anything quite like this and the potential surge. My thoughts are with the Maritime Provinces and particularly Nova Scotia. I really hope these wonderful coastal towns are not completely devastated.
Tell that to the people of Bermuda and PR.
Well, of course but these are islands that see hurricanes constantly and have some preparation and knowledge of how to deal with them.
Well, Bermuda and Puerto Rico do see hurricanes regularly, but as islands, both are limited by available resources and the difficulty of lifting supplies and manpower from the US mainland to these islands.Puerto Rico was just blasted by this hurricane and I don't think the suffering there should be lessened by the fact that "it happens all the time."The prayer should be that the folks are well-prepared and that emergency services are ready to deal with the Maritime Provinces before and after the hurricane hits.
Was fortunate to visit Bermuda and stay at a rental residence in the middle of the island.No fresh water source in Bermuda. Residents have lime coated roofs on their homes and cisterns under the homes to collect the fresh water. The cisterns will probably be full to the brim after hurricane Fiona.Also, fortunate to visit Puerto Rico before hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017. I do not know if Puerto Rico has recovered from those two category 4 hurricanes. There was a Scooper living in PR giving updates at the time. Hopefully the USA gave Puerto Rico the aid it needed to recover and will for Fiona.
Oh, my goodness. The Oak Island dig! How will Fiona affect that?!I guess we will find out over the winter.
I expect at least two episodes about Fiona, as well as the narrator foreshadowing for at least 3 others.
At least I see Marquette gear on the show once in a while, so there's that.
Meanwhile, TD 9 is predicted to grow into a major hurricane and hit Florida. Kid in college is right in the predicted path.
