| #11 The larger problem in my mind is how slow it's moving. 5MPH westbound. It's not just going to hit, it's going to DRAG ON. I'm not sure there's going to be anything left of the Bahama's after this, 20ft surge supposedly. Certainly looks like it from the provided video's |

| #5 Apparently the storm decided to head north after President Trump chased it away from Mar-a-Lago using his Trumpian super powers. Sorry, h8ters! Sympathy for anyone in the storm's path. |

| #3 For those keeping track at home, #HurricaneDorian is now just 15 mph shy of the ALL TIME record for maximum sustained wind speed in an Atlantic basin hurricane. Dorian could give this record a run for its money. |
