You might be a hurricane nut if re-analysis reports make you giggle with glee, and you plan your calender for when the next batch is released.


(the above describes me.)

You MIGHT be a hurricane nut if, when you check your kids' rooms or closets and classify them as being from category 1 through category 5.

You might be a hurricane nut if (when gas prices were cheaper) you used to stop on good hurricane seasons instead of bad ones (e.g. 1995 instead of 1994) :)

You have people call you in the middle of the night with recon reports.

You know EXACTLY when the next GFS run will be in.

You are disappointed when you see some hurricane forecasters' names and not another.

You have memorized every major hurricane strike in your area.

You spend more time at your computer than outside during ASO.

You might be hurricane nut if your wife is threatening to leave you before the season even starts because she's already tired of your nonstop tropical talk.

You might be a hurricane nut if:
you take the bathroom pass and go to the library for updates each class.
you have over 100 hurricane-related sites bookmarked.
When your mom tells you to go to bed you:
ask her for five more minutes so you can get the 11pm advisory online
or
obeys and catches it on the weather radio

^^^All relate to me :wink:

If you pospone your wedding because its in the peak of Hurricane season, you might be a Hurricane nut.

Better yet, if you purposely schedule your wedding on the aniversary of a famous Hurricane so you always remember it, you might be a Hurricane nut

1. if you actually stand outside and film the hurricane as it affects your area for at least an hour, then ten to twenty minutes of afterwords to show local damage...then you ARE at least a hurricane nut...that is completely me!!! oh, and
2. if these "You Might Be A Hurricane Nut..." jokes you make are things you actually do...also fits me...
