We have close friends in Naples. They got evacuated from there and went to Orlando, now they got evacuated out of there and are just heading north to where her parents live, but I want to say that's now on the track as well

They were all supplied up and ready to ride it out at home and the Naples evacuation happened last minute. They have a 6 and a 3 year old also

Hurricane Irma don weak small even as e still dey run to enter America. Dis na as e don enter Cuba, scatter things there.

Di hurricane drop leg for Camaguey Archipelago, north-east of Cuba as category five storm, but e don drop small to category 4.

Bahamas escape am, as Irma change road for how e waka.

Dis na di first category five hurricane to jam Cuba in decades and although e don drop to four, e go climb again to five when e reach Florida.

Authorities for Florida dey comot millions of people from dia houses to prepare for di storm wey don already kill 21 people for di Caribbean.
Its honestly my favorite thing ever. I read it every day now and make myself cry laughing. My coworkers don't find it quite as funny

Why dem dey call Hurricane human being name

Plenty people don dey try find safe place as Hurricane Harvey scatter Texas for US
Di biggest storm wey United States of America never see for 13 years don land for Texas.
Dis Hurricane Harvey don scatter plenty houses and tori say e even don kill five people.
Hurricane Matthew wey bin happen for 2016 kill plenty people and scatter house join wen e happen.
Harvey and Mattew na human being name, so how hurricane dey take get dia name sef? In short, why dem dey give hurricane name at all?
Why dem dey name hurricane?
Hurricane na type of storm wey get plenty-plenty rain plus strong wind. Sometimes sef thunder go follow join.
Meteorologists wey dey research weather matter think say if dem give hurricane name, people go fit remember am well-well and e go help people wen dem dey talk about am.
Hurricane Harvey na di biggest storm wey don happen for US in 13 yearsImage copyrightNASA
Image example
Hurricane Harvey na di biggest storm wey don happen for US in 13 years
Dis name wey dem dey give hurricane na based on list wey dem don arrange before each hurricane season start. US National Hurricane Centre start dis one since 1950.
As e be so, na di World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) dey arrange all di name wey dem dey give hurricane.
Wen storm go first start in a year, dem go give am name wey dey start with A and e go continue like that.
Before-before, na only woman name dem dey use till 1979 wen dem con add man name.
Dem dey shuffle di list of names, so di name wey dem dey use for 2017, dem go repeat am for 2023.
List of 2017 Hurricane name

Irma as it engulfs Cuba and approaches Florida

At some point there is going to be a satellite image of Irma blocking out all of Florida from space, just like it blocked out all of Cuba, that'll be pretty cool.

Like I said, what's a hurricane? Here in land of red and green maples, we never see that shit. No hurricane has ever made landfall in Ontario, only the maritimes ever see anything of note in that regard, and very rarely.
