I agree. My wife has been yelling at me for the past week saying something about me not paying enough attention to her.....I'm not sure what she was saying, I really wasn't paying attention.

It is addicting though, and VERY hard to keep up with.

Couldn't agree more! Even one of our other moderators calls Storm2k "THE LEGAL ADDICTION".

Yeah, well, especially when you're being picked on lately. :x
But, this time I find no one wants to talk about it anymore (except you guys)
All the people around me aren't paying attention to this. They're sick of listening to the weather channel, of dealing with this 24/7. I can't seem to get anyone's attention. No one wants to listen to a word I'm saying about it.
Everyone's busy fixing the problems that came about with Francis, and not looking ahead.
And so I sit here, totally shaking in my boots about this next one, all alone.
Staring at radars, and models, (which are really new to me) and putting a lot of faith into hope.
But I'm pretty scared at the moment, and think a good cry is in order. :cry:

Hey Vb I havent seen any posts from you in awhile....saving your ammo for later in the track? :lol: being a fellow Houstonian I look to you for insight on where Ivan might go. Any thoughts on the predicted trough that will save TX?? If it misses it we could be in alot of trouble....

I agree. I have been accused of abandoning or not paying attention to some other people. Part of the addiction for me on this board is you never know what to expect in some way and to perhaps gain a little of insight from some veterans that have tracked these storms for a long amount of time.
