Guest swirlundergrounder Posted August 28 Report Share Posted August 28 Not again, this living down in the 'Deep South' is getting scary....I can't remember the season being this crazy last year. Think this is headed our way? It's now a Cat 3 hurricane and it's expected to become a Cat 5 within the next few days.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted August 28 Report Share Posted August 28 Hard to tell at this point, the predictions only bring it to Wednesday, and that puts it near the Bahamas...check the NHC (www.nhc.noaa.gov) website on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Adam Singer Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 this shit needs to swing north or south or something!!! its going to fuck up alot more than our weekends if it hits us!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 They say it is going to be a busy season every year. Well, the NHC is starting to get a little more worried, enough that they are telling everyone to watch the storm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adam Singer Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 it cant come on like a monday or tuesday, *has* to funk the weekend doesnt it?i mean if there is going to be a massive storm to cause death a destruction (lets hope not)...it should at least get us off of work/school!

Guest JMT Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 1999 marked the end of the hurricane "down cycle," which meteorology experts say lasts for a few decades. we are now in the higher activity period. the last one was from 1920-1959, where 73 hurricanes were discovered.for this year expert forecaster William Gray predicted 3 major hurricanes. there has already been 4, with 2 classified as "major". Francis is already a 4 and still cooking. this one could f some stuff up.ive lived here my whole life. personally i like the excitement they cause but i really hope it turns away.

Guest pod Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 Current landfall prediction is around Vero Beach. However, the NHC is saying it is way too far in advance to tell for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest swirlundergrounder Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 This sucks. I have no way of boarding up my windows cuz my living room in my townhouse is all one big window and I'm on the water as well so if the water rises in the case of a direct hit my whole place would get flooded..Looks like I have to move my studio stuff upstairs if thats the case b4 evacuating if necessary........ :-\ :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest swirlundergrounder Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 So if this thing hits Vero Beach would we still have to evacuate the Miami area or not cuz were would be on the weaker side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Well Vero Beach is about 150 miles north of us. We'd certainly feel "tropical storm" effects this far south, but it wouldn't be anything really worth evacuating for. The newest estimates have it hitting Jacksonville, so if that is the case, the worst we'll get is a lot of rain. Again things could change, so we won't know for sure until Thursday or so...

Guest Clarisa Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 I just heard on the radio a newsflash that says FRances will be hitting Vero Beach and north Florida. So South FL is spared this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JMT Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 still some time for it to turn a bit more south, unforunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 I just heard on the radio a newsflash that says FRances will be hitting Vero Beach and north Florida. So South FL is spared this time.You never know. Check www.nhc.noaa.gov for the best info. It is where the news stations get their info from. Then they stylize it up making it seem like the end of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest swirlundergrounder Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 Yep I got all my insurance stuff gathered up and confirmed just in case. But doing so for some reason onlly scares me more that Frances will hit us....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
