A genuine weather update, from my sister in Raleigh.

Looks like Hurricane Dick not Florence!

At least you have the Harveys, suggest you drink it all and then hopefully the hurricane will pass you by, or vice-versa. Hope all goes well and you all stay unharmed.

Since moving from Sussex to North Carolina, we are about to experience our first Hurricane. Fingers crossed we won't have the peak of devastation - we are well away from the coast (near Raleigh) but warnings are still of catastrophic flooding and the "odd" Tornado.

Any top tips from NSC's greatest for survival most welcome.

Whilst there was no water in the shops I filled up on Sam Adams and Goose Island IPA yesterday and do have a keg of Harveys in the garage.

At least I'm reassured that despite the record high temps around the worldly wise scientists Farage and Trump assure there is no climate change - just need Boris to confirm.

I've spoken to my brother who lives in Fayetteville and also has a house in Wilmington, they seem to be content with preparations, not overly worried.

Yes - she seems to have taken a bit of a left and looking to swerve the Raleigh area. Good for us, expecting a spot of rain still.

"Tremendously big and tremendously wet"

That's what she said.

It’s a small storm now, more bark than bite. We used to enjoy holding bin lids and “sailing” on skateboards if you are into that type of thing.

Put all your valuables in the dishwasher. If your house floods then your most treasured possessions would be dry because the dishwasher is water tight.

The weather channel, owned by NBC, can't make money unless people watch and people don't watch unless there is something dramatic going on on the telly screen (or dramatic graphics, CGI)
