Do you know anything about the loud boom and vibration earlier in Little River. According to others it was heard in sunset beach and calabash as well. @EdPiotrowski
"Yesterday I adopted the oldest, sickest, and sorest shelter dog. I'll never forget his eyes.
When I went into the cage he didn't even bother to look, he knew I wouldn't even see him.
Curling around the corner He'd accepted his fate. The volunteer said to me many times...
Are you sure this one? Are you sure? YES! This is my dog.
He opened the cage and 3 animals fell on me.
I ran towards him, suddenly he looked at me as if he saw an angel... I hugged him and told him that now he'll be happy again.
Now he sleeps in my lap... probably the first peaceful sleep he ever had.
Give it a life. Give it a hug. They need us."โ

โI heard a boom!โ Williamsburg County man said he heard a military jet fly over his rural home before crashing

What a remarkable day in the life of #Lee. It doubled its wind speed in 18 hours ( 80 mph --->160 mph). Heck, it intensified so rapidly that it completely skipped over category 3 this afternoon. #scwx#ncwx
Welp, that escalated VERY quickly. Hurricane #Lee may already be a Cat 5 hurricane, or darn close to it.

At 11pm itโs very likely #HurricaneLee will be a cat 5, rapidly intensifying at more than 2X the criteria!! Taking a look at the Tropical Cyclone Heat Potential, #Lee has really just entered the stretch hotter ocean temps. Will be interesting to see how intense it can get! 1/
Hurricane #Lee has continued to outperform even the most aggressive intensity forecasts and may soon become a Category 5 storm.
Two hurricane models are forecasting that Lee's maximum sustained winds will increase to 195-205 mph tomorrow, which would be the highest wind speeds ever observed in an Atlantic hurricane.
#Lee has the potential to be one of the strongest hurricanes we've ever observed in the Atlantic Ocean.
@ScottyPowellWX@WBTWNews13 Yes you did!! I was actually outside (yea Iโm one of them people) looking for it when the warnings went off. Yep. You called it. Youโre my new Ed. ๐คญ๐คซ๐
Idalia is now a category three hurricane and is expected to become a category four hurricane before landfall this morning in the Big Bend region of Florida.
