“Urging Floridians to prepare” lol. Walmart in Lakeland had no refrigerated products (EMPTY!) at 6AM this morning and people already streaming in to clean off rest of shelves. If you’ve been in central Florida any time at all, where hurricanes hit from all angles, you know not to waste a second 😂

Do you believe in climate change yet ...?

[JoeysClones]

I feel like sandbags are a psychological help at this point. Keep us in your thoughts and wallets please. I am told 9+-30ft surges.
My cousin in the air force is telling Me all of Tampa- Central Florida- West Palm needs to evacuate.. because She doesn't know why they're not saying it may reach a Cat 5.. it's not dropping...that patch is heated from a solar active geomagnetic storm.
Seriously get a second opinion from another trusted source.

Ronda sagtits! Get your mickey mouse boots on and help clear those debris Mr. "topgov" 🤮🤮🤮

Climate change or not, it might not be a bad idea to bounce, if ya have the means. I feel bad for the elderly stuck in nursing homes on a good day, I hate to think how so many might be forgotten during this. Our society doesn’t value our elderly very well . 😢

[Fedupnow]

Maybe the us will recognise global warming now 🤔

These are the "Last" of the "Last Day's" Matthew 24:3-14. Jesus said it would be this way during the time of his "Presence" and the "Conclusion" of this system of things. He said there would be "Fearful Sights" during this time period. Compare Luke 21:11. The extreme changes in the weather, flooding, fires, famines and Hurricanes are all part of the composite "Sign" that Jesus gave mankind to watch for before the End comes. The End is imminent. Seek God and his righteousness, seek meekness, seek Gods Kingdom while there is still time. Zephaniah 2:3.
