He will not respond to your question because he was booted as it was the biggest troll around the net,the infamous Great One.


What in the world kind of code is that? What happened before and who is the Great One? Pvt me if it isn't fit for public consumption...


Greatone is a troll who was banned from storm2k a while back. Hes an annoying pest who gets his jollies out of aggravating others.


Also, Greatone likes Joe Bastardi a lot (nothing wrong with that, just a characteristic, it's his opinion and like him or not, he is entitled to his opinion) and many of his posts contain typos. He also thinks a hurricane was a C5 just based on "this couldn't have been any stronger/destructive" and other similar statements. Just some warning signs to look out for.

Back to the topic. Very interesting that Cangialosi is interning at the NHC this year! And I also thought from an earlier post that I've never heard of the NHC having a female specialist (then again, I'm young, so what do I know?) In any event, I look forward to getting to "know" these knew specialists.

Not bad the potential salary of a meteorologist at NOAA. I would bet the specialists earn more than that higher end of range. After all, they are true life savers, which work for long and uninterrumpted periods of time...
