I stopped reading after your first sentence which is clearly false. The Pinelands National Reserve is over 1 million acres. Ok but the fact still remains that the infrastructure and population density in the NY-NJ area is so much larger than this area of FL. There isn't $65 billion worth of property in the region to destroy. That's all I'm saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to Mexico beach is possibly the dumbest thing someone can do right now. They could end up with cat 4 sustained winds and a 10+ foot surge. completely ridiculous.

My only worry is for the first responders that may have to put their lives in danger in order to save those morons that have no regard for their own.

I know people kind of idolize josh on here, but it is so dumb. It also encourages amateurs to try as well. Would any chaser drive into an ef3 tornado? That is essentially what they are doing here, adding it will last for hours, and surge. It is is extremely irresponsible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look I was told in the other thread and in pm’s that the chasers there are professional and have lots of equipment. They’re doing us a service, how dare you disparage them.

Windspeed Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 Josh was in the eyewalls if Haiyan and Patricia. He's smart even if a huge risk taker. He might get killed one day, but he has always admitted the risk. Still, he usually seeks out the safest concrete structure to record data and has years of experience. Hopefully he will be okay.

Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk guess we're going to find out just how safe it is to ride out a high end cat 4 in Mexico Beach since that one chaser is trapped there I believe after trying to go to PSJ.
