I hope it will turn into a tropical storm, and bring rain to the parched plains of the USA.

Several models are pointing at landfall in the Carolinas, this of course is subject to change.

After 8pm Friday night, when I’m on a plane to Nevada from Newark, I dont care what category this thing is.

Good bye NY and good luck.

The Northeast does not handle storms very well.

Sandy had declined to a tropical storm and still did major damage.

The last actual hurricane to hit anywhere in the USA was in 2008 (Ike).

The Global Warming crowd thought we'd get more hurricanes, and bigger hurricanes. Not so much. It's been tropical storms at most for 7 years.

I’m in southern PA and I find Accuweather’s reference to Isabelle (2003) a bit ominous.

We were in the NE wind sector. Lots of downed trees and lost power for four days.

Bought a whole-house generator later that fall.

Get ready for another week of “the worst storm in recorded history”, “never a storm like this before Global Warming”, “we need hundreds of billions to fix stuff”, and on and on ........... maybe even a photo shoot of Christi kissing His Arrogance to get a little more cash.

Sandy was a category 0 when it hit. That is when it counts.

No, I just dont really like it here anymore lol.

When the day comes that mom (82) unfortunately passes on, I’m gone.

She’s very healthy though lol. That italian diet really lengthens the lifespan. But she needs me as she can’t get around like she used to.

BTW, I stopped eating the Mediterranean diet as soon as I moved out and gained 50 pounds in a year!

I’m that flight, too! We’ll have to toast our departure.

[maybe even a photo shoot of Christi]

Some camera manufacturers offer a fish-eye lens and/or a wide-angle lens for such engagements.
