I’m worried for them and everyone else Can you elaborate on "fossil diving". Very curious and two overlapping hobbies amongst my scores of hobbies.
October 10, 20241 yr With all the hurricanes going on I forgot about the dock strikes for the locals in Florida. My gosh they won’t be able to find anything in stores for a while. Does it hurt to be this stupid? Like, do you have to wear a helmet or something?

October 10, 20241 yr Why the fuck does the news media have to be so hyperbolic? I just heard someone refer to this as a “once in a thousand year weather event”.

October 10, 20241 yr Here's another nominee for today's Darwin Award. Storm chaser's truck quit. He (and two others) hitched a ride to Sarasota to see the storm. And are looking for a ride back to Orlando.

I think that the shallow sandy waters off Tampa Bay or so have lots of fossil shark teeth. So you can go diving (or snorkeling?) and have a decent chance at finding some. I have never tried, so I don't know the details, but it sounds cool and I want to try it someday. This storm might (dunno) stir up things and bring more teeth to the surface, so in the end it might not be bad for shark teeth finding.
October 10, 20241 yr Fuck. I thought those were resolved, no?They are but still some lag. We are seeing 2 week delays plus still.

Lots of fossilized shark teeth, way less hurricanes. Some say Sasquatch lives there, but I dunno.
October 10, 20241 yr Does it hurt to be this stupid? Like, do you have to wear a helmet or something? No dipshit, everything is delayed across the country because of the short strike of the 30+ ports shutting down. That was my point. Do tell us all about logistics and how they weren’t affected whatsoever you dumb mother fucker.

One issue with the Florida teeth, is that the water can get murky and there are cases where searchers for fossil shark teeth found live alligator teeth instead.

October 10, 20241 yr Avatar has never been more appropriate. Hopefully Florida has as little damage as possible.

October 10, 20241 yr Holy shit these Florida people have no idea what they're looking at. "I'm getting scared" Young lady you should have been in full shitting your pants mode a minute ago. She’s in a Waffle House that’s still open. Why would she panic?

Hell a bunch of them are patting themselves on the back in this thread after getting everything wrong over the past 8+ years.
October 10, 20241 yr I'm watching the Ryan Hall guy and like him; he keeps his cool and isn't hyperbolic. They're discussing the backside of the eyewall is coming on shore now. He and his chasers are talking about what's coming on shore now, which is a lot stronger than the front in this case. Lots of flooding from the rain itself, beyond the storm surge. The airport has received 5 inches in the last hour on top of the 7 inches they'd already gotten today. Storm surge is much worse right now to the south around Punta Gorda/Port Charlotte where all power is out.
