Incredible! #Irma has now been a Category 5 hurricane for 69 hours straight (as of 5PM). This breaks the Atlantic record of 42 hours.

Nothing to do with climate change though, so I'm led to believe
The NOAA consensus advice on climate change re: current day hurricanes is v cautious tbf. Long-term it expects an increase in average intensity, but there's no consensus at all on frequency.

Is it a bit PC gone mad to suggest 'Incredible!' Isn't the most appropriate thing to tweet when describing something like this

Awesome would have been more appropriate.

And if you think that is inappropriate, then it's because you're using awesome incorrectly.

Rush Limbaugh said this hitting Florida was a "liberal hoax", so I'm hoping that all his listeners have decided to take a day-trip to the most exposed parts of the Coast.

Says the guy who reads huffpo.
Are you saying the news isn't true? If not you really don't have a point...but don't let that stop you...👍

And as much of a leftist rag as it is, it is still more credible than anything the rush conspiracy network pukes out...not that that's saying much...

Having been through the worst cyclone to hit us in decades, I can only wish as many people as possible have evacuated. :(
