  1. Yeesh … and putting it over Arkansas covers three whole states, most of four others, and healthy chunks of at least two more … we tend to get rain from the Gulf storms, but that map makes me even happier I don’t live on the coast, especially since the Arkansas River’s only about a mile away. I hope those who can’t get out can find somewhere safe.

    1. Given the population of southern Florida, I’m very worried that many, many people won’t get out or be able to get out. And CNN just said Irma is back up to Cat 5. I’ve never had any desire to live on any coast and I hated Florida the two times I was there. I’m quite happy right where I am.
