hhmmmmmmmmmmmm

Fill up now! Wall street is sure to run up oil prices on this bit of news.

[Duggan]

****, we might get cloudy skies in NY.

[jmikesteen]

I just hope it stays that far south. If it moves even 100 miles to the north I will get water on top of already saturated ground. Dang , time to get out the scuba gear.

Send it this way!! But somehow miss LA, MS, AL and Tex.

 

Seriously, "bad drought" is an understatement right now.

 

I'm sure whatever happens, it will be the government's fault.

Where in MO are you webfoot

[Webfoot]

Just south of KC

[jmikesteen]

I was born in West Plains but only lived in a VERY small town of Alton until I was 2 then on to Memphis, Atlanta then down here

[Webfoot]

Beautiful country down there. We take a float trip on the Current or Jack's Fork every summer.

[tucker301]

It's like it knows exactly where it wants to go

 

Here's the latest time, position and strength forecast.

Thursday AM, it's drawing a bead on the gulf coast of LA, MS at 115 mph.

 

[jmikesteen]

Maybe we can get everyone out and call it a wash this time.

[tucker301]

I suggest that FEMA start now.

If they get a lot of busses and offer everyone a free 42" plasma and a $5,000 debit card if they evacuate, they could save money and countless lives.

[jmikesteen]

Looks like it is Tampa instead of NO , prayers, but the way the storm really looks it could be us or the east coast. Very shifty little devil. It is getting pushed around right now.

I hate that it's you guys, but you are better at handling it than NO ever will be.

Looks like I could be seeing it by next weekend as well.

[jmikesteen]

This is the poop, Just had to buy preminum for 3.29 to fill the tahoe, Well I have reservations for Boca for the next 3 nights, If nothing changes , shutters go up in the morning and wife and kids leave early afternoon. (me too) M1014 in the back of the tahoe

[tucker301]

The timing of the cold front coming in from the NW is going to be critical for us. It should push it back out off the coastal Carolinas.

 

Keep us posted as long as you can, and good luck.

[M1014]

looks like the Tampabay area is gearing up too ,,,soon there will be no gas and no groceries no lumber,no etc,,etc,,,loading the Benellis with the special hurricane ammo ---------------------------good luck jmikesteen

[jmikesteen]

Tampa is going to get a by, I canceled Boca at least for tonight. I like being on the left side. If it stays on this track and stays at a 1 or 2 I will be better off staying home. Thanks 1014 and back at cha.

With the current path, it's not going to have enough time over water to regain much strength at all.

Looks like good news all the way around.

[jmikesteen]

I still think this sucker is going to go up the east coast.

[Duggan]

Maybe it might hit a city that isn't under sea level.

[jmikesteen]

Well we are every bit of 10 feet above down here Duggan!!!

 

The rain has started but I am so glad the wind speed stayed down. We aren't even putting up the shutters. This is a cake walk
