Harry Crouch’s San Diego office is a study in male outrage. The shelves are stacked with books entitled Making Monsters: False Memories, Psychotherapy and Sexual Hysteria, Legalising Misandry and Hotsy Totsy FemiNazi, badges – “California is Sexist & Hateful Against Men” – adorn the walls, and a bumper sticker on the back of the door reads: “Don’t be THAT girl: embarrassed about a hook-up? Angry at a boyfriend? Willing to destroy a life?”
This is from the forecast discussion of Major Hurricane Florence from this afternoon. As a meteorologist, when I saw this, my heart sank. They don’t use wording like this for every storm.
Florence is going to be a devastating. There will be huge amounts of flooding, both from inland rain and from costal storm surge. Winds are going to be some of the strongest you can get from a hurricane. People within the path of this storm could lose everything.
If you know anyone who lives on the North or South Carolina coast, tell them that if there’s an evacuation ordered, they need to get the hell out. Do not take chances with this one.
