Glad that @iCyclone made it through #Dorian in the #Bahamas. One thing he mentioned in his tweets got to me. He said that being in the eye and the slow movement of the storm allowed him and others to find another safe location for the second round of the storm. (1/3)

With that in mind, the @NHC_Atlantic mentioned not to go out into the eye. I guess in this extreme situation, it made sense to do so for safety. In most cases though, you shouldn't. Normally hurricanes move faster, and weather can go downhill quick if caught. (2/3)

I can't imagine being surrounded by storm surge and destroyed buildings. Not knowing if the building you are in can survive another 12+ hours of Cat 4-5 winds/surge. I think Josh saved lives since he's been through these disasters before.
