Noon, Saturday, Sept. 3: As 75 percent of folks are rallying to leave LBI before Hermine arrives, the remainder are walkin’ about or nonchalantly waiting in line outside restaurants to leisurely dine.

As is always the case, double-barreled reports are being loosed, left and right, regarding storm hazards – many that I just don’t see. In fact, since yesterday, I’ve seen the Hermine-ish system showing strong sign of turning east over North Carolina and South Carolina, as I had 50/50 suspected.
