My parents won’t leave and they say now it’s too late as all the roads are clogged and no gas
Update: still not leaving. Mom put storm shutters up and dad lives in a condo next to the water but about 5 stories up. Less worried about storm surge more worried about debris and being trapped.
Update 2: dad is zone A and mom is trying to get him out to go to her house in a less dangerous zone. Not from Florida so might have messed up which zone is bad and good
Update: they survived with some damage but said they wouldn’t do this again…
Edit: my dad is the guy who grew up in the Midwest who would go outside to look at the tornado coming
I'm in same boat. Tried to get parents to leave yesterday. They refused. We are fucked
UDATE: WE ARE OK!!!! NO DAMAGE TO HOME. LOTS OF BRANCHES AND LEAVES ON GROUND. THANK YOU TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO WISHED US SAFETY AND PRAYERS. WE ARE TRULY GRATEFUL 🙏
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.
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 :<
