I know that many are thinking the same thing. It seems as if the press are aching for a big deal out of Hurricane Isaac so that it moves the Republican Convention coverage to the second page. I am watching this situation with a close eye.
Is Isaac pooping out? In the latest satellite image it looks like it’s been cut in half. A few days ago a FReeper opined that it might hit a “dry patch of air”, at which thought I scoffed, but here it is. They were showing this on TWC, and just a few minutes ago one of their talkers mentioned that Isaac was being ... I forget the word, but something violent ... truncated or something. He passed off to a colleague who brushed it off, proceeding to say that what people were saying to him was, “This is such a big storm, how ill it affect me?”
Now just as I type this I heard a weather babe say “dry air” about four times in twenty seconds.
Stay tuned!
