Wow, a storm surge of 4-5 feet other than in inlets swamps house sitting just above sea level. That's not so shocking to me.

So, Liberals now measure a storms strength not in winds, not in storm surge, and not in the size of the waves, but instead the storms strength is measured by how many folks built properties at sea level near the beach.

I'll stick with winds and waves, but feel free to measure it any way that you like.

Actually us libs leave the storms strenght up to climate scientists. I understand you don't trust those folks though.

We typically measure destruction in dollar amount, home and business destruction, and death. You know, 233.

The statistics for wind and storm surge prove that it was a minor hurricane. The damage that happens proves that lots of folks built properties in high risk areas.

Had Da Beers diamonds stored 20 billion in jewels on the coast and lost them all, I suspect Forkie would have upgraded that storm to be a Super Duper Hurricane.
