I'm in Utter Shock as a Possible Major Hurricane Gamma Lurks

[fuzzyblow]

I seriously can't take another one! Wilma cost my SO's job (she sold theatre subscriptions, and nobody can afford them this year, so they cut the jobs), and we're still struggling just to eat and live!

Vandora, I can't go on your web page

It's down right now, sorry about that.

Ever heard of Wilson's Creek? It's near Boone and Blowing Rock, NC. Anyway, after the remnants of a hurricane passed over, the entire valley flooded, washing away everything. They left it a park land afterwards, you can still see the foundation of the mill. This was in the early 1900's.

It reminds me of Charley/Dennis. But the Gulf is way to unfaverable for a hurricane this time of the year.

Alot of areas were "UNFAVORABLE" through the course of this Hurricane Season and many formed none the less....It wouldn't surprise me if we saw a major affecting the US Thanksgiving week.

i have family that lives in Zionville, TN right outside of Boone/Banner Elk and they have taken us hiking down in the wilson's creek gorge area. Some of the most beautiful scenery in the southern appalachians in my opinion

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, this thing isn't even named yet.

<P>

We all know it's going to be Tropical Storm Gamera.<P>

do you have a personal ulcer doctor?

I've enough of the tropics for tonight (and for 2005 for that matter)...

good night.

I ordered a "STORM CANCEL/SEASON CANCEL" notice after Wilma. We've dodged the bullet for these last two seasons and thus, I ORDER Gamma to keep our streak intact.

Jeez, I'm so sick of this season.

I'm starting to think it may not get a name.

I could not agree with you more.I can't believe all the hype this thing is recieving.There's a very little chance of this becoming a major hurricane and a even lower chance of this impacting the U.S.This looks to be a problem for areas in the Carib and possibily Central America later down the road.I don't see this having any impact on Florida.

The big climatology 8-ball says "It is not that unlikely."

Being "a problem for areas in the Caribbean" is practically a given since it's in the freakin' Caribbean, right? As for Central America, I'm thinking climatology says Cuba and possibly Florida is more likely than Central America, but I haven't run any data sets so I won't say I'm sure of that.

Talk to the people in the Grenedines - *hype* about a storm applies to more than just the shores of the US and a *problem for areas in the Caribbean* matters.

you think living in North Carolina would be much better? Our year is to come yet.

[nequad]

Talk about an early hyped up call of a major. Sheesh...I don't think we'll have a cyclone by days end.

You can pick yourself up off the floor now Chris.

[CHRISTY]

the chance of a major hurricane are decreasing by the minute of this shear does not decrease.

All the smart ones are! Like folks tell me when I get on my "FL going to Heck" soapbox: "So, go." So, I've made it into an anagram (or whatever): S.O.G.O. (Sell Out Get Out). Yep, the smart ones ARE.

We just had a meeting (Orlando) for the future development of the Hoffner Avenue Corridor. Okay, so the county people were late due to... traffic. The room wasn't set up and was WAY too small. Instead of turning away the overflow, the PLANNERS hosting the meeting did exactly the same as they're doing to the county: they just stuffed them in on top of those already there. Fire Marshall would've had kittens.

Found out that for now at least, they aren't taking out homes along the corridor. They DID rezone us for GREATER DENSITY, though. (sigh) Also, the south side of Hoffner will be rezoned to Industrial. Let me guess: there go our property values (?).

<P>Um, I was making a joke. Gamera is the giant Japanese sci fi turtle.<P>Of course, if you have to explain a joke it's a failure in the first place.

before 2004 we went a few yrs without a major hurricane strike.its just nature catching up for loss time
