I’ve been seeing so many bugs lately that are usually totally gone by November bc its been so warm… last night i had a dream i saw fireflies and i didn’t even try to catch them bc i thought they must be already stressed from being in their adult stage this late in the year 😭 i know its bad bc climate change but I’m really enjoying the warm weather. I hate the cold and i miss my animal friends every winter…

Found a Reddit thread about people discussing leaving after Milton and asking others if they would do it too, and the amount of replies saying it’s Florida we get hurricanes astounds me.

Like I’m sorry are y’all really that dense that meteorologists the people who study the weather were getting choked up over how quickly this thing got its act together? Is hearing these people who are typically calm and collected about these things anxious and upset not harrowing?

And to those on the coast saying to move inland, not realizing that inland gets impact from these things too? Sure it’s not the surge but flooding, wind, tornados? They all still impact inland it’s not like it hits the coast and dissipates that’s not how massive systems like these work. Several areas inland had flash flood emergency’s for Milton, the nws doesn’t lightly hand those out. Oh and those tornados from Milton? Other than being wedge tornados that Florida rarely gets, killed people and one has already been rated as significant. These impacted areas forecast to not be hit hard by Milton at all.

There were others saying that if you don’t like hurricanes move to where there are blizzards as if this past winter wasn’t mild as hell for a good portion of the conus. Like Buffalo the city that got that monster storm back in 2022 didn’t really have snow this past winter mild.

Perhaps instead of thinking that these people looking to move after Milton are weak maybe you should be looking at the fact that Florida just got hit with major hurricanes with only a week separating them. And yes that’s a fact of living in Florida, but I also think that this should be raising concerns, because the question then becomes how many times do you rebuild before it becomes to expensive to?

Fort Myers is still cleaning up from Ian and now they also have to clean up impacts from this storm. The big bend got hit by a major last year, then a hurricane earlier in the year and a couple weeks ago by Helene which was a major hurricane.

I drove past that area the other day, the one Helene impacted, I was well off the coast and there were trees snapped in half with their bark stripped off, trees knocked down billboards torn. Not to mention the rain dropped on the Carolinas.

When do we say instead of “it’s Florida we get hurricanes”, this is concerning? And yeah you could bring up 2004 and Florida being hit with four hurricanes but I raise you all this is the first time since records began in 1850 (that we know of, since satellite improved data) that Florida has had major land falling hurricanes three years in a row.

This is what happens when the oceans are so warm. Hurricanes thrive on warm water, they in reality are designed to redistribute the heat in the ocean. But that hasn’t been happening this year, maybe it cools down for a week or two but then it goes right back up. That’s part of how Milton was able to be so intense so soon after Helene went through.

In the end I think Floridians need to be more concerned with this trend, because if it keeps up who knows how many lives will be lost because people think it’s Florida hurricanes happen.

[Intro]

I hear voices in my head

They counsel me

They understand

They talk to me

[Verse 1]

You got your rules and your religion

All designed to keep you safe

But when rules start getting broken

You start questioning your faith

I have a voice that is my savior

Hates to love and loves to hate

I have a voice that has the knowledge

And the power to rule your fate

[Pre-Chorus]

I hear voices cryin'

I see heroes dyin'

I taste blood that's dryin'

I feel tension risin'

[Chorus]

I hear voices in my head

They counsel me, they understand

They talk to me, they talk to me (Oh!)

They tell me things that I will do

They show me things I'll do to you

They talk to me (Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me!)

They talk to me (Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me!)

[Verse 2]

All the lawyers are defenseless

All the doctors are disease

And the preachers all are sinners

And the police just take the grease

All you judges, you are guilty

All the bosses I will fire

All you bankers will have losses

Politicians all are liars

[Bridge]

I see darkness fallin'

I hear voices callin'

I feel justice crawlin'

I see faith has fallen

[Chorus]

I hear voices in my head

They counsel me, they understand

They talk to me, they talk to me (Oh, oh, oh!)

They tell me things that I will do

They show me things I'll do to you

They talk to me (Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me!)

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

I hear voices cryin'

I see heroes dyin'

I taste blood that's dryin'

I feel tension risin'

[Chorus]

I hear voices in my head

They counsel me, they understand

They talk to me, they talk to me (Oh, oh, oh!)

They tell me things that I will do

They show me things I'll do to you

They talk to me (Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me!)

They talk to me (Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me!)
