    Default Perfect storm?

    I-40 is cut for months. I- 26 is cut for who knows? All ports on the Eastern seaboard and Gulf of Mexico are shutting down this week. Gasoline is already running out. Fill up everything you can. A lot of stuff is going to be in short supply if the rail bridges linking the West Coast ports are washed out as I suspect many are. Should get interesting...

    I’ve always thought that was laughable, personally.

    Friend just called to tell me his entire farm on the Wateree near Camden is under six feet of water. Duck ponds, fish ponds, fields, everything, one big lake with a sluggish, roiling current.

    I've seen two different weather predictions that another storm, possibly two, will form and follow Helene's path. I hope they are incorrect.

    It'll drop quickly with the river.. probably going to end up with an extra small lake for ringnecks. If my jon doesn't end up in Sumter, hopefully not, because it's tasteful. Doubt the tractors will go anywhere, but I can't think of a single food plot that's not going to be under.. also might be able to catch some fish in different places, all material things.

    The lines at the gas stations are unreal. The things I’ve seen people putting gas in is even more unreal. Panic has sat in.
