number 2 in the eye?

#1 Postby weatherwoman132 » Sat Mar 18, 2006 9:55 am

okay, I've just recently learned 2 more things about hurricane wilma..... when she was making landfall in florida, they saw a number 2 in the middle of the eye.....is this true?

go here.... http://www.watchermagazine.com/?p=2079


ALSO, wilam had two eyes after she crossed florida? what? I surely would have loved to see that amazing picture when the storm passed us here, but we had no power for weeks. if anyone has any information, or pictures on this, please reply!

That was really amazing when I heard about it. What was really freaky was that after it had a 2 in it's eye it then had two eyes. :eek:

where is a photo of the two eyes of Wilma? (i wanna see it) as for the number two in her eye...isnt it a little ironic that the news station is called NBC2? why is that the only photo of it? also...why havent I heard about other local news stations having similar sightings on their dopplar radars? for some reason, to me anyways, 2+2 isnt = to 4 with this photo...i think there maybe more behind the image...otherwise nice photo...
