Hurricane Nate

Hurricane Nate is due to become a category 2 storm by the time it makes landfall this evening, they forecast it going north then curving northeast to go through Tennessee ...Looks like I'll see part of what's left of Nate here at home on Monday...

Hurricane Nate is still intensifying and racing northward toward a landfall tonight on the northern Gulf Coast as at least a Category 2hurricane.

Hit in Orlando last night. Massive storms and rain for about an hour. Amazing to watch.

Quite surprised there is still alot of damage here from the last hurricane that hit. Still bags of branches and missing roof tiles everywhere laying on the sides of the roads. Who is responsible for the clean up in such situations?

I image city services will handle clean up in the streets and property owners will do the rest.
