Although some stark images show how much Hurricane Dorian has devastated the Bahamas, it is perhaps even more worrying that the full extent of its destruction is not yet known.
With this in mind, it's understandable that citizens of the southeastern United States would be concerned about what the storm could do here. In times like these, staying informed about where, when, and to what extent the storm will strike becomes of paramount importance.
It is likely for this reason that the confusion in the wake of President Trump's insistence that Alabama will be in the hurricane's path has resulted in online backlash. But depending on how this confusion came to pass, that's not the only issue at hand here.
