    We're scheduled to fly into Savannah next Wednesday (9/13) to go see my son, D-I-L, and granddaughters. Going to be watching Irma closely. We'll most likely be re-scheduling. My son is designated as the first responder to go back into the Arconic factory where he's the Asst. Plant Manager. I doubt we'll get to see him much if they have any damage to the forges. He and the PM were issued chainsaws, safety gear, and A/T trucks so they try to make their way back ASAP as soon as the storm passes.
    His insurance covers 80% of any hurricane damage. He's got his 20% in a money market account for such instances.
    And my understanding is the taxpayers under FEMA "give" very little that isn't required to be paid back. At least by those who can afford it. That's what my son was told by FEMA officials he spoke with at his plant when they visited.
    Yeah, let's pay people that don't work to keep "not working" by providing infinite entitlements. But, penalize those who contribute to the economy by having jobs, and mortgages, and will likely pay back the money loaned in full.
    We don't want all those coastal liberals moving to mid-America anyway. They'd never fit in.

    Hurricanes can be job killers, too!
    Jobless claims surge after Hurricane Harvey

    Source: The Hill

    BY VICKI NEEDHAM - 09/07/17 10:10 AM EDT

    Unemployment applications spiked last week to the highest level in more than two years in the wake of Hurricane Harvey's lashing of Texas and Louisiana.

    Weekly jobless claims hit 298,000 in the week ending Sept. 2, an increase of 62,000 from the previous week's 236,000, the highest level for initial claims since April 18, 2015, the Labor Department reported on Thursday.

    The one-week jump in claims was the largest since an increase of 81,000 in November 2012 after Superstorm Sandy barreled into the Northeast.
    Claims jumped 96,000 after Hurricane Katrina hit in September 2005, according to Gus Faucher, PNC chief economist.

    With Hurricane Irma bearing down on Florida and the East Coast, claims may experience more surges in the coming weeks.

    Ouch!

    That's just the first week- wait until next week, when Harvey's losses sink in, and we get our first chance to see Irma's U.S. job losses......

    Latest on Hurricane Irma: Nasty!

    Latest data projections and computer models show landfall expected NEAR OR SLIGHTLY NORTH OF MIAMI, then running right up the Atlantic Coast of Florida, into Georgia and the Carolina's.

    The construction business will definitely benefit from these storms, more jobs more profit.

    It looks like the latest prediction has moved Irma more to the west coast of Florida.

    Look out nnuut it's headed your way.

    It could also head farther west, over water, and/or weaken. If this were such a tradeable scenario, markets would have moved more than they did - since this information was available before the close...remember that typhoon and the nuclear thing a few years back? The market effect (which was less than the economic effect on semiconductor supply); was about 9% and lasted something like a day or two.

    I don't think it will make land fall as a category 5, and may not as a 4, or 3. The actual path is very difficult to precisely know 2 days in advance. Miami is not in the cross-hairs currently.

    Hope anyone that lives in Florida or have friends and relatives there, that all are safe. Just found out my wife's sister in Tampa has power and are doing OK.
    May the force be with us.

    That is some big storm, Nuutt!

    Hey- where is "Boiled Peanut" in Georgia, anyway? Is it east of Atlanta?
