it was the same up north when a blizzard was in the forecast. Last hurricane or two, people got into fights in the gas lines. Weather people feed into the frenzy IMHO.

No, remember some of us have been listening to
Hurricane hype for over 20 years and start to get
Hurricane fatigue.

Who is getting fuel for their gas grills and planning the block party to cook up the defrosting food in the freezer? And make sure you can find the manual corkscrew you bought before the last hurricane! If ya hafta go shopping - don't forget the toilet paper!

Because I have T time on Friday.
