Can't say how much over hype the various news chans are doing BUT
This is one of the largest AND slowest hurricanes in many many years, wind speeds aside it's almost worse when the thing just hammers a spot for 12-14 hours then a quick wham bam fuck you mam high wind blowing system.
Also even though the thing has been downgraded to a cat 1, the SIZE of the eyewall is that of a cat 3, and when it hit land in NC they clocked sustained winds of 115-120 BUT they did not put it back to a cat 2 system.
All in all my fingers are crossed that all 'our' friends family co-workers etc are safe but I won't lie here, I LOVE watching the coverage and seeing these 'reporters' in the wind and rain telling ppl to "get out of here"
