This is obviously has a potential to be horrific and devastating, but you are super into

0:04.0

weather. So I wanted to give you an opportunity to talk about the hurricane.

0:07.8

Yeah, this is going to potentially be pretty catastrophic. So it gained a lot of steam

0:14.2

overnight and it's a category four, but it's really just a couple mile per hour winds away

0:20.3

from moving to a category five. And today and tonight, that golf coast region of Florida

0:26.7

is going to absolutely get bombarded. Now here's what I learned and I learned this the hard way

0:32.1

having owned property in North Carolina near the coast. You get caught up like us in the Midwest.

0:40.0

We judge it based on oh, what category is it from the standard of what are the winds blowing?

0:45.1

And like you would see sometimes category one hurricanes can be far worse than a category four

0:51.8

because like what happened in North Carolina where my property was is the range just sat

0:58.8

over the area for days on end. It's the equivalent of like a giant downpour in central Indiana.

this is going to hit as a four they say, but you can't even sometimes a four I'm doing air quotes here

then you're okay. If it's a quick moving storm, you can batten down the hatches and assess the

1:27.1

damage later if it's a slow moving storm. And that's what this one kind of is. It's going to make

1:32.0

landfall sometime between two and four this afternoon. It's a slow moving storm. And if it cuts

1:39.0

across and it gets back out into the Atlantic, it can pick up steam and come back and hit again

1:45.2

possibly on the Carolina Georgia coast. I am always amazed that you would love to be down there

1:52.4

being a part of these sort of things. I would love it. It's on my bucket list, man. Like it is. I've

1:57.0

done everything in radio that I've ever wanted to do. I've done radio row at the Super Bowl. I've
