Haiti was not the topic of the thread,it was the effect of the hurricane on Florida .Just saying that some in the media went a little overboard.
Shep Smith went apocalyptic ......said everyone and their kids were going to die
I agree it's best to play it safe and evacuate and glad it didn't result in many loss of lives on the coast

Did the thread title get changed, because it is Hurricane Matthew now. Hurricane Matthew devastated Haiti and killed hundreds of people there. Their lives are important even though they aren't Americans.

For anyone pooh poohing the media coverage while safely tucked away over a thousand miles away, Matthew had the potential to destroy communities and kill just as many that died in Haiti. It's easy to be Monday morning quarterbacking the hype. I for one am glad people got out and stayed safe.

100% agreement. Better safe than sorry.

Default Mad Matthew

SAMIAM is correct. This thread was started to indicate the concern for folks connected with our Lakes Region area with the march of hurricane Matthew headed north and aiming toward their homes in Florida. 🐻
