Then like I said, at least people are still ready right now instead of waiting for the last moment when the threat of the hurricane hitting them is still very real. But then again it's the media, experience > media. I would hope the residents of the hurricane states have enough severe storm or hurricane experience to know what to expect.
Alarmboy seems WRONG!

Incorrect, Alarmguy is really smart person who can think for himself, look at the information provided on factual sites like the NHC/NOAA, interpret that information and make sound decisions based on knowledge and fact, not TV and Internet fantasy and postings.
Alarmguy is not a pampered snowflake who listens to media "presentations" that are nothing more then actors promoting you watching their TV and Internet postings so they can generate advertising revenue off of you. He can think on his own, not some idiot who runs away like a scared sheep because the media corralled him like a dumb animal into believing they can predict the dangers of a storm 1,000 to 1,500 MILES away and increase the sense of danger to almost panic when it is still 500 miles away.
So all this panic for SC and people leaving the Columbia SC area, Alarmguy was right, [censored] storm passed right over us and wasnt even a tropical storm when it did, not even a wind gust over 45 mph, no torrential rains. In fact the "public servants" at NOAA were correct and their was NO reason to leave Columbia, they NEVER said to, but you might have thought otherwise once the media built this storm into the storm of the century where snowflakes didnt know where to turn.
Why is this??? Because the so called CAT 3,4,5 (or whatever crap you want to believe) arrived on the NC coast as a minimal CAT 1 and quickly died down to a tropical storm 150 miles away from Columbia, by the time it got to Columbia it was a depression.
The new snowflake generation cant think and reason for themselves and that is dangerous, as they will always follow the most convincing "leader".
What is a snowflake, ever give a cashier exact change with a large bill? They get bewildered and can not reason to figure out the change until they punch it into the cash register to figure it out for them. Are you one of those?

This pic is quite humorous as well. Anything to sensationalize a story.

The term "snowflake" amuses me a lot. You state how the new generation can't think for themselves yet you're using a term founded on facebook; how's that for irony? Sounds like if people die, you'd complain how "they had all the time and warning in the world it's their fault they died."
Besides, congrats the storm was downgraded and people can return home relatively safe and unharmed. What's the issue with that?

The storm wasnt downgraded, the storm never was a CAT 2,3 or 4 to hit the mainland of NC/SC.
It was a CAT 1 to hit the mainland of NC only, SC almost nothing, the weather forecasters and media hype made it larger and everyone in the media made a huge profit/ratings on that hype.
The only "downgrade" was the hype as the media and weather channels made a big issue of this when the storm was well over 1000 miles away, like hello joe public?
It was a bad rain storm for sure in NC but my posts are about SC not NC.
Hotels in SC CLOSED down FIVE (more or less you had to check out by 12 noon on the TUESDAY before the storm that never arrived because of a mandatory evacuation of the entire coast of South Carolina based on weather "report on a Storm about 1,300 miles away at the time.
My brother lives on the COAST of SC that borders NC, for goodness sakes he went down to the beach SAT afternoon to see the damage, there wasnt any.
The storm hit SAT morning he lost power but still went down to the beach 6 hours into the storm to check it out, wow, terrible storm for SC huh? Driving around in your car, to the ocean no less during such a bad storm which was literally right over them.
Give it a break
) ... and the term Snowflake, you find it ironic? Why would that be? Isnt it funny how everyone knows what it means, why? Because its true.
In case anyone doesnt understand this post, its about closing down the ENTIRE state of South Carolina FIVE days ahead of a storm OVER 1000 miles away that never came.
