No, actually. The farther it goes the weaker it'll get. But most current predictions say it won't hit land until it passes South Carolina or so, and that'll only be the outside edge of it. North Carolina will get the worst of it, and by the time it gets to NY it'll be a category 1 storm. However, that's still winds from 30-80 mph, and rain, lightning, and thunder.
I planned a small road trip for Saturday. Now it's fuck.
A few things come into play here. There's mob psychology, which is kind of interesting in and of it self, and there's the possibility of assholes being assholes. Also, I would guess that hurricanes aren't terribly common in the north.
Oh wow. We get 30-50 mile a hour winds and storms here all the time in the good ol evergreen country. We call it 'winter'.
And if you assign a number to each letter, A+P+P+L+E= 50
This is a horrible, horrible thing.
