@buzweaver: Hurricane Isaias: The Waffle House Warning Hurricane Isaias is threatening the Gulf Coast, and there's one Southern tradition that tells you just how serious things are getting: the Waffle House Index! Isaias briefly reached Category 3 strength before weakening to Category 2. As of Friday evening, the storm was approaching Florida's western Panhandle with winds near 115 mph. Forecasters warn of life-threatening storm surge reaching 6 to 9 feet in some areas, damaging winds, flash flooding and possible tornadoes. Heavy rainfall could also spread across the Southeast this weekend. And here's where the Waffle House Index comes in. Dozens of locations in the Florida Panhandle have reportedly closed. When a restaurant famous for staying open during hurricanes shuts its doors, Southerners know things are getting serious! Stay safe, follow local evacuation orders and monitor official weather alerts.
