So many conflicting news reports and too many reporters seemingly enjoying getting people riled up. I went to work and my wife stayed home but many people in my area evacuated. We even stocked up on supplies but I didn't think anything major would come of it--at least in our area. Savannah got flooded a little but it takes nothing to flood those streets. |
Your neighborhood not getting it as rough doesn't necessarily equate to the media blowing the whole thing out of proportion. Besides, I do agree that the media tried to hype this up somewhat, but in this case they should. If they just released statements like "Hurricane Irma might, maaaybe ruin your home" no one would take it seriously. It's better to overplay things like this than underplay them.

Wow, the elipses really make a difference. Can I delete two of them, though? Five just seems a bit too much for me.
