Earlier, KNBC (Moyers/Williams) showed Fidel going on live television, advising Cubans to prepare for Ivan. Uncle Fidel put a roundtable discussion of 'experts' on live TV and showed maps of projected landfall. Three guesses whose maps he used. (hint: they weren't keyed in Spanish)
Just came inside from an awesome Mohave Desert lightning show visible where I am from around the Barstow area. It is outstanding.
