Storm after storm after storm hitting FL. Man that’s never happened before. Must be global warming.

When did everyone stop calling every wet event "The storm of the century"

[@nonya.bizness]

yeah, hurricanes battering the same populated area over and over again is just another "wet event", like the drizzle in the remote desert outside my window.

Is DeSantis going to ban tropical storms and hurricanes from entering Florida

[@nateh3441]

Desantis is excited that he is going to have another reason to break out his sexy knee-high white boots.

Where is trumpys sharpy. We need guidance. lol

[@marshalbaek5580]

everything eventually returns to dust. Spend a respectable amount of time pursuing things that won't. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, be humble, have self control...are good examples...

[@john-smith.]

Get your Fancy boots out Ron.

[@kristanichols6215]

God bless and protect everyone in the path of the storm,and the animals and pets.For anyo e that evacuates please,dont leave your pets behind.😢

[@yankeesusa1]

Don’t keep saying they haven’t had time to prepare. They’ve had plenty of warning. Even if this was a tropical storm or cat 1 it would have almost the same effect. The direction has been known for a while.

THIS JUST IN: trump proclaims that if he was potus he would get out his magic sharpie and save florida from this hurricane.
