I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
If it helps, Nora, my parents are not particularly concerned. Watchful, but not freaking.

There's definitely a range of reactions happening which confuses me. We'll see what happens at this point- we've been pretty good at being prepared, so I guess it's just a wait and see situation.
It's still a tropical storm, at least.

Dana, where do your folks live?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yeah, that happens. It's hard to predict which way a storm will go, so some people prepare for the worst, and other people prepare for what seems most likely, and other people just go into denial. (From my experience in several NOLA hurricanes, my best advice is to make sure you know how you're going to evacuate if you need to, and don't freak out.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Avocado's got a very luxurious texture. The mouth feel is gorgeous. I'm not good with vegetables (it's fair at this point to tell me it's a fruit, but off point to no particular benefit), but avocado is rich, fatty, and delish. And it grew on a tree! Magic!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I have intolerances to a wide range of foods - some known, some unknown. I just ritually take claritin with me and sometimes take it before because I have itchy mouth, burning mouth, rashes, hives, whatever when I consume too much of some items (including fruit).
I'm not giving up fruit.

I eat eggplant in spite of itchy mouth because my mom has done so for all her adult life, and it seems to be one of those allergies that doesn't escalate.
Shrimp, I'm avoiding because that one can start out as itchy mouth and progress to anaphylactic shock, so I'd rather not risk it.
