Well...somewhere between Florida and Carolina looks most likely...at this point...

It may just be an old wive's tale, but I remember hearing that an active hurricane season means a snowy winter.  I hope so.  Cold and snow means dead fire ants.

Nobody said to worry; prepare.

It may just be an old wive's tale, but I remember hearing that an active hurricane season means a snowy winter.  I hope so.  Cold and snow means dead fire ants.

I saw the pictures of the huge rafts of ants and had a vision of napalming them - what a perfect opportunity to catch them enmass and terminate them in droves. And then my vision had a vision of burning masses of ants all running under anything that wasn't waterlogged and setting it on fire.

Yea, I know - I'm unsafe at any speed!

Yes fire ants....people in the northern states just don't know what they're missing out on.

Heh!

Yeah...we have enough with skeeters, bitin' flies (my ankles look like ground beef!), ticks,...and thanks to open borders clowns...a chance at crap like West Nile...carpenter ants (need more woodpeckers!) and thanks to the high water infestation-level frog population...I don't need fire ants! 

And seeing those floating islands of them down in TX...I had a similar thought to 'Soup - flame-thrower!

Looks like Florida...



And they think Cat 5 is still possible...Cat 4 very likely, so nothing to mess with!

And the panic is kicking in...

Look at this bullsh*t in the US Virgin Islands:

http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/05/virgin-islands-allows-national-guard-to-seize-guns-ammo-ahead-of-hurricane-irma/

Quote
U.S. Virgin Islands Gov. Kenneth Mapp signed an emergency order allowing the seizure of private guns, ammunition, explosives and property the National Guard may need to respond to Hurricane Irma.

Mapp signed the order Monday in preparation for Hurricane Irma. The order allows the Adjutant General of the Virgin Islands to seize private property they believe necessary to protect the islands, subject to approval by the territory’s Justice Department.

Mapp issued an emergency declaration Tuesday and mobilized National Guard units to prepare for the massive storm.

“This is not an opportunity to go outside and try to have fun with a hurricane,” Mapp said. “It’s not time to get on a surfboard.”

Yes - one can see the logical jump from THAT statement to immediately confiscating guns! And when will the guns & ammo be returned, one wonders...

I think this statist clown is asking in his own twisted way to be duct-taped to a sailboard and launched into the storm-surge...

Meanwhile in Florida...

https://www.clickorlando.com/news/central-florida-shoppers-filling-up-on-supplies-ahead-of-hurricane-irma

...he who hesitated, may not get squat...

We'll have to see how this goes...storm seems to want to take the grand tour, sometimes landfall weakens them and fresh sea re-energizes them...by the time Florida comes up who knows what mood she'll be in...plan for ornery though.

Be safe!
