Hurricane Season is Upon Us

[Youngblood]

Umm,Thanks Youngblood ...trust me bro,I have a frontrow seat and bags packed sitting by the frontdoor........I am not staying through that insanity again.Hey.....we already have leaky levees discovered two weeks ago.If I fail to log in here at least once in a 24 hour span.........Im floating down the Mississippi

In some strange and twisted way, I envy you for it too. Of course not the hardship, death and destruction. Wouldn't wish that on anyone.

But damn I want to see me some hurricane. If I had the money and time and means, I would be in one of those planes flying thru it as it formed, and there on the shore where ever it lands.

We got hit by Hurricane Juan a few years ago. It beat us up bad even though it was only a Cat 2 storm. It's forward momentum was very fast so it hit us with the thud of a cat 3 storm.

Check out what Hurricane Juan did to Halifax, Nova Scotia (that is where I am from)...it beat us up and pissed on us all night.

You know Dean, I have seen it and I did follow it. I remember it was supposed to lose strength as it worked it's way up the Eastern seaboard, as they often do, and hit as a strong tropical or weaker Cat. 1. But it wouldn't give it up, and plowed in at a Cat. 2 and moving quickly, as you say. Unusual that strength for there.

But those hurricanes are almost always moving fast by the time they start moving towards the North Atlantic.
