Bad enough for you all gettin this storm down there, but why do you feel the need to share it with me up here in Illinois. I didn't send my Tornado down to you did I.

Been rainin for 2 days straight here already, they're callin for 2 more days until it stops and that will be just in time for your hurricane remnants to get to us and start a whole other front of rain. Alright already I get the hint, the arc's goin under construction in the morning.

Thats what our company meteorologists send us every hour. I've done quite well in the business and think I'll be staying awhile longer.

I washed the car this morning, I bet you it rains tonight or tomorrow. Who wants to bet me it will not?

Starting bet is $10,000.00

They need to send the one that shows the "hook" closing in rapidly. If that happens soon enough look out. That will make it intensify rapidly most likely to a Cat 4 well before landfall.

The wind shear is decreasing which is a BAD sign, you want it to increase in order for the storm to weaken.

Russel the best video on that site was the anchor getting pelted by the wave, his reaction was awesome. Sounded like he got a nose full of ocean water.

It is actually and that's what they're concerned about. The core is actually closing and staying small which is a sign that its gaining strength because it causes the wind speeds to pick up. They're seeing sustained windspeeds above 100 knots as it gets closer to the shelf it could very well upgrade to a class 3.

STUPID STUPID STUPID PEOPLE!!! The Coast Guard are now working their butts off because they've received over 150 calls for help. Stupid morons were ordered to leave and choose not to. Now men and women are risking their lives for these idiots!!!
