You think we should go ahead and make a megathread for this, since it's probably going to be non-stop shit

Looks like Joyce is about to clobber Helene and Helene is supposed to hit Ireland in the future.
sadly, i didn't die or get washed away. I barely even got a heavy storm here in fayetteville.
damn, I forget that some hurricanes come back on themselves and can reach up to Ireland. that's crazy

Nothing really major coming out of those two right now. Helene might end up as a nasty storm in the UK but it won't be a tropical cyclone that far north.

The one that I'm keeping an eye on is Issac, who might sneak by unnoticed and then become an issue for someone (maybe me)

As for Florence. It's still flooding and raining and slightly windy in places. Still a few days of it for some. Jim Cantore of the Weather Channel stumbled upon a Waffle House that had no power but was serving food in Wilmington so the Waffle House Index is moved to Condition Yellow.

This baby probably deserves it's own thread. Winds well into the upper 100s (like 160-180mph) barrelling towards highly populous Asia. Not gonna be a good one.

Widespread flooding has occurred, as expected:

The remnants of Florence will continue to move across the North East until they dissipate.
