There's nothing like seeing Christmas avatars and taking about hurricanes at the same time. It's kinda freaky, actually. Someone needs to make a list of all of the records that were set this season... It would go on forever and ever.

THE OFFICIAL
FORECAST DECREASED THE FORWARD SPEED BEYOND 72 HOURS TO COMPENSATE
FOR THE EASTWARD COMPONENT SUGGESTED BY THE GFDL. BY THEN EPSILON
SHOULD BE A REMNANT LOW...WE WOULD LIKE.


Another humor quote from Avila at discussion of the 4 PM EST advisorie. :)
