did 96 just eat 97 on the cmc run? lol

Alas, I don't do the evil FB, so I can't see the video   Any chance that it's on youtube?

Dear Mother Nature,

I know most of us on this planet are assholes and have been treating you very poorly for a long time, so you're using this hurricane season to send us a HUGE message. I get it, I really do. I'm with ya, sister! However, I'm exhausted and still recovering from following Irma since she reared her ugly head, including all weekend and the aftermath this week - and it didn't even come near me! I have AT&T U-verse, and one of our channels is a severe weather channel that is only active during severe weather events. It was pretty cool - no commercials - they just jumped from local broadcast to local broadcast all over Florida during Irma. I had it on all weekend. I followed this forum constantly.  I watched every SnapChat and youtube video posted from Florida to watch everything I could, and now I'm still watching to see aftermath and rebuilding progress. I promise, I'm paying attention. And I know I'm not alone. 

That being said, please spare the southern US from anymore direct hits this year. Between Harvey and Irma, I have been riding high on weather adrenaline for weeks now, and I need a break. For God's sake, you almost killed poor Dylan who is probably suffering from PTSD now. We just can't have that! Speaking on behalf of everyone on the Gulf, we beg you to please give us some peace and quiet for the rest of 2017. (Except for Washington DC. Go ahead and do what you need to do there to make any further points about climate change.) Those of us along the Gulf Coast and all of Florida would greatly appreciate the respite. Oh, and please leave the Caribbean alone as well. They've had more than their fair share.

If you really can't help yourself, you can send us a TD here and there - but nothing that registers on the SS scale, or comes even close. 

Sincerely,

HeatherWeather
