This is so nice. The utter devastation of the area is so heartbreaking.

I'm still confused. If the hurricane didn't hit Florida until Wednesday night, why is the Carolina flooding being attributed to the hurricane if it happened before that?

I've had a crazy week so I haven't been able to read anything 🥲 pardon my ignorance

I’m guessing pre-hurricane weather surrounding the main event. Storms can be enormous - while the eye maybe only be a few miles the weather pattern can span hundreds of miles either side.

That’s purely an educated guess though, idk for sure.

From Florida to South Carolina is around 600 miles or more. It was also in the Gulf. 🤔 For south/mid Florida there wasn't much damage unless you were on the water. Didn't get a chance to read how Tallahassee/ whatever the area directly hit fared bc it happened overnight. When I woke up it had already dissipated.

EDIT: My bad it hit Thursday night. I don't even know what day it is lol

We got storms in Indianapolis that are attributed to the hurricane as well. I didn't fully lose power, but it went in/out most of Friday.

We don’t deserve Dolly

I love her. 1 million is crazy, most celebs don't donate that much even though they could.

THANK you for the Rumors on the FEMA page, just sent it off to the people in my fam who think FEMA does not have enough because it was diverted to the illegals

I am soooo sick of seeing people label the area as Ukraine and caption it with "now maybe the government will do something".

Why are they so obsessed with AI photos of Trump?
