One guy stood on another's shoulders to mount it. 6' was mentioned, But it doesn't matter with a surge of that magnitude or higher, Its catastrophic.

B. They honestly expect emergency services to go out during a major cat 4 hurricane and rescue them. C. You really can’t fix stupid. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea that would be a big deal in savannah area. They don’t get hit often by canes and one that hits at a right angle is especially unusual. Probably lots of vulnerable areas even in a cat 1. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just said the camera being covered is 12 feet of surge And it's 12 feet above ground level (if the camera is 12 feet above ground). The actual surge would probably be 15-16 feet or whatever it is above the normal water level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a couple hundred thousand in the last hour I think Numbers are going so fast because substations and main transmission lines are failing.

MattPetrulli Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Looking ahead, NHC issuing hurricane warnings for SC/GA coast at 5 PM is a real possibility. Every global model with the 12z suite has it going under some type of deepening during the day Friday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately that's why mandatory evacuations are issued. We can't force you to leave, but no one is coming if/when you need assistance during the storm. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooralph Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Am I hallucinating or does it look like the SW part of the eye wall could slide under Charlotte harbor and spare them the worst of the surge? Seems to be moving ENE now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
