Frost is totally weather!
But it's a whole different weather vibe than a hurricane. It's a different temperature and everything.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's still got water in it. I don't see how they can possibly be different.

I think what we need is a movie where people run from a hurricane. It's the only way to solve this.

You can't make a good snowfort in a hurricane.

There is a bodysurfing tradeoff.

What is even happening?
Frost is much colder. It's much slower. It's lower down. Do we need to send you back to Michigan for a refresher course on frost, ita?
Partly for selfish reasons because I will never get a chance to visit NO as it was
Like you Maria, I'm mostly just horrified and heartbroken because of the tragedy, but I have to admit, there's a small bit of "I'll never get to see it" in there, too. A lot of people I've talked with though, those who've been there, and those who haven't, feel the same.

The closest I've come to bodysurfing is a bellyflop. Burrowing is much easier.

Still, it's bad enough that it is archived on the interbunny. I don't need my failed attempts at race sluttage shown on basic cable.
ftr, I don't need any potentially successful ones shown either. I'm demure that way.
Ah, so THAT'S the way you are demure.
Watching the news. I don't think people 'stealing' groceries should be called looters.

I agree, Trudy. And at this point, with all that water, and no electricity, the people taking things like groceries are performing a salvage job, more than anything else.

Me either. It's not like they can buy food anywhere.
