BREAKING: Hurricane #Helene has been upgraded to a CATEGORY 3 Major Hurricane with winds of 120 mph and a pressure of 959 mbar. This is one of the largest and most monstrous Gulf Hurricanes recorded in recent decades, and a potentially catastrophic, 15-20 ft. storm surge is being predicted for the Big Bend of #Florida when Helene violently crashes into landfall later tonight.

@rachelmillman
in light of the Adams news, his property he pretends to live in in Brooklyn is in my neighborhood. I walked by it today and the basement of his neighbors had flooded, and the guys working on it gleefully informed me Eric’s toilets were also backed up

I think this is the most unsurprising news I've heard since I first saw the guy speak, except maybe I expected this to happen about a month after he left office, not during.

Meanwhile in Tennessee...
This is what it normally looks like. Apparently the dam is designed to treat a situation like this.

The governor of Tennessee refused to ask President Biden for help, unlike all the other red states in Helene's path.

Yes. There are so many posts on Xitter about how the residents of the area just never expected something like this to happen. There are small towns that have been wiped off of the map.

Hope it is not poisonous or worse. It is pretty strong in Duluth. Do any of our government experts have the chemical formula. I would like to google it to see how bad it is. It is not too hard to find the formula since you know the chemicals stored at the site. Just add water.
The company made pool treatment chemicals. The smell in the air seems to come from chlorine gas.

If the air conditioning system draws air from inside the home why do we need to turn it off? Is it due to it possibly creating a negative pressure difference and pulling in air from outside?
