>>54309991Yeah how about don't listen to the news stations then, obviously it weakens after landfall, that's what fucking hurricanes do when they interact with dry land. The issue isn't what category it is if you're inland, it's how much rain it dumps and if you live in an area vulnerable to flooding, which literally is a shitton of the inhabited portion of socal and NorCal lmao. Central California literally turned into a lake 150 years ago because of torrential flooding but yeah
It's a very easy distinction to understand if you don't fap to porn all day and like, literally just read a single book on how flooding works with storm systems. Try to guess what hurricane Harvey was when it did the most damage to Houston and where most of the damage and deaths came from, cuz it wasn't the wind at all (which is the only metric saffir Simpson measures)
What do you think the map I linked measures anyways
But none of this is probably a concern to you given that you don't own a home and never will, so I get where the nihilism and anti-intellectual attitude comes from (I don't watch msm either dumbass I just know how storms work thanks Tommy degree)
