Webdip points question

If a player abandons/leaves a game and no one takes over their position, is that player still included in draws to end the game? Do they get a split of the webdip points from the game?

"notifying potential tenants of a flood risk is recommended but not required. Renters and leaseholders are often left in the dark."

Yeah. There's a lovely bit of Florida law. Great for landlords. Working people get screwed.

bo_sox48 (5202 )

The Dali Museum is not a bad place to go but I would always recommend a sponsored shelter. Churches are built as well as any buildings around, too. Find one and go. They can't call themselves a church if they turn someone away.

Irma could push west, as I said last night and a few days back, but only so far. It would be worse for Tampa and the western Florida coast to be east of the eyewall than west of it. I don't have anything in front of me right now to look at so frankly I don't know.

bo_sox48 (5202 )
09 Sep 17 UTC

I would also recommend a new building. Andrew and Charley spurred dramatic changes in building codes that might make it safer.

Shes posting pictures of puppies on facebook. Sigh

bo_sox48 (5202 )
09 Sep 17 UTC

She's not getting to Atlanta. She could go further inland but she needs some gas left in the car for after this is over.

Ogion (3882 )
09 Sep 17 UTC

Again, what Bo said. Tell her there is a serious storm chaser friend giving you advice and she should follow it.

I live in Chattanooga, and for the traffic jam on 75north this morning shocked me Took me a few seconds to digest why, then i started looking at all the FL license plates, many with camping bear in the back that I saw

I honestly wish I had a place for them all to stay It was sad seeing the mass exodus

In Chattanooga? Holy cow. Seems a little rough since you guys look to get Irma once it's done with Florida. Gotta wonder if NO will get flooding downstream.

Stressedlines (1559 )

They were not stopping in Chattanooga. There is a highway split at Chattanooga, one road goes NW towards Nashville, the other towards knoxville seemed like an even divide between the 2 for the FL plates.

As i Understand, Kentucky seems to be the final destination of these folks

At least Jose missed Barbuda. Small mercy at this point, since every building is damaged or destroyed and the entire population was evacuated to Antigua

Ogion (3882 )
10 Sep 17 UTC

Bo, you mentioned being just east of the eye is the most dangerous place to be. Why is that? Apparently the track has nudged a couple miles west to send the eye over St Petersburg (not that one!) meaning just east of the eye will be... Tampa

Ogion (3882 )
10 Sep 17 UTC

Found it. The right side has the spiraling winds plus the motion of the storm on the right side, while the left side has the spiraling winds minus the movement of the eye. So with 130 mph winds and moving at 10 mph, the right side adds up to 140.

You'll find this amazing. The Bahamas has lost its ocean. I'm guessing Jose sucked the water out?

Looks like this thing is shifting from Chattanooga a bit, going more over Birmingham than us.

Ogion, I saw that they said it would slowly come back as the storm released it waters

Ogion (3882 )

Yes, but that's a lot of water!

Any word from your sister, BB?

Shes near the airport and Tampa bay bucs stadium. Said theres a good number of drainage ditches in the area. Shes got my nephew, the dog and her fiancee with her

Ogion (3882 )
10 Sep 17 UTC

I guess then the building strength is key. I hope she is safe. From projections I saw pretty much everything south of her is likely to under water with 15 feet of surge.

bo_sox48 (5202 )
10 Sep 17 UTC

This is gonna make its landfall between Tampa and Naples as a low- or mid-Cat 4. Too much vertical shear for it to strengthen and it's just wrapping itself in dry air off the mainland. Still gonna be windy as shit and high surge, still dangerous and very life threatening, but no records will be broken today.
