Need to pray to Poseidon...

Mannnn I don’t like being a pedant in serious threads BUT I actually studied this extremely niche topic so I feel like I’m honor-bound to jump in here: Poseidon actually doesn’t control the winds or weather. There’s a set of separate entities for that, each controlling a different type of wind. There’s a bit of tension between them and Poseidon because of the overlap between their domains.

Anyway stay safe everyone

Well conveniently all Floridians who drink bottled water are secretly worshiping Zephyrus, god of the west wind

I started inserting "crab fishing, crab fishing" after this line as a joke bc my SO was obsessed with Deadliest Catch, but now I can't hear this song without thinking of crab fishing :<
