Hurricane Florence is approaching the Carolina coast and the eye is expected to make landfall tonight in North Carolina.
The Waffle House storm center is now in operation.
Anyone who has traveled the Southeast knows about the ubiquitous Waffle House at every interstate exit.
Ok laugh about the existence of a Waffle House Storm Center all you want but it's legit a great indicator of measuring the severity of extreme weather. It was even open during the Atlanta snowstorms of 2014, and FEMA's been using it to evaluate storm damage.
Waffle House is OP. https://t.co/DSzUo6Q94W

And when the Waffle House is closed you know there is a severe disaster.
Moments ago Matt McBradley posted this from Shallotte, North Carolina.
It doesn’t look good folks.
From Shallotte in southeast North Carolina–
Via Mike Cernovich:
The wind is growing stronger. But more significant is that the @WaffleHouse in Shallotte, NC is now closed. The chain is famous for its storm-hardiness, and its closure is perhaps the greatest metric that the storm is nigh.

It’s it’s closed — run for your life!
FEMA's Waffle House Index: "If it's closed, the storm is real bad…."
