imagine if this stalled like that on the coast instead of a hundred miles offshore.

Hey Charleston Hugo Vet! I've missed ya this season. I was starting to wonder if you moved!

I'm burned out on Ophelia and gave up even thinking of preparing anymore. This has been a tiring storm to watch.

YES!!

I'm rapidly losing interest...

The only thing I'm interested in right now regarding Ophie is what her blood alcohol content might be. She definitely looks like she's drunk and has been behaving like she's been drunk her whole life.

I've really enjoyed Ophelia and not been board at all. She has not been the typical system and has really kept everyone on their toes trying to figure her out. Kinda makes things interesting.

Yea I was enjoying watching the first 4 days or so, but gotta say I'm burnt! It seems like this has been going on for weeks! I think it has only been a week since she started off the coast of Florida. I was also watching on the news that there alot of storms that lasted more than 15 days some of which I remeber being like 21 days. Can you imagine? Seems like everyone would be sleeping by the time it hit. Just hope everyone along the whole east coast there has there ducks in a row.

It's from Orlando. I was born and raised here and while growing up people from other cities in Fla. always, at least the people I hung with while growing up, always refered to Orlando as *O Town*. And by the way we still do. lol

I've seen fickle storms but come on already. The crazy things is after threatening 3/4 of the SE Coast, and points North, she is just as likely to spin off into Laa-Laa Land that is the North Atlantic, then to finally make landfall.

I think even the Global Models are tired of this storm. They all are agreeing for it to just recurve on the latest run.

Ophelia needs to make up her mind. She's just sitting off the NC coast...spinning herself to death. If you look at latest satellite pics, she doesn't even look like a tropical system...there's NO convection in the center.

I have a feeling Ophelia will be around for awhile...making landfall as a moderate tropical storm...50mph.

If she spends some time over the warmer water she is heading toward now, she could strengthen some, but she definately looks strange on satellite with not much of a defined inner structure.

I still enjoy tracking these things though. She is all we have right now.

I just want a day or two off from work.

I see where you are coming from with this comment, but I would'nt wish too much you may get more than you bargin for. Like the folks who were well away from Katrinas eye at landfall but are now out of work for longer than they would ever care to be. I know this is not a Katrina, but be careful what you wish for. :wink:

Maybe Ophelia is taking her time, checking out all the good beach vacation spots. We enjoyed her rain in Cocoa over Labor Day (not).

She looks like the ghost of hurricane past.

She's had too much to drink, and now she's passing out, ala weakening bigtime. Not to mention, she's been moving like she's been drinking a little too much tequila!
