The latest GFDL run shows a peak intensity of 170 knots, and then landfalling at 145 knots around the center of the Texas coast. I certainly hope that doesn’t pan out, and I doubt it will, because it is still the one outlier for a U.S. landfall. The rest are still putting Dean into Mexico.
Hey NN,
Thanks for the ping.
This thing looks like it’s going to hit Cayman. Do you know if Onyx still frequents FR...I was wondering if her daughter was still on the island.
LOL. I can understand that, sort of. :)
ROFLOL.
About time they got it going early. Texas also has prep work going on, but no emergency yet.
Very clever. ;o)
Bttt!
Madam Blanco has declared a state of emergency, and asked the President for funds. Go figure.
Why does this not surprise me?
I know I’m late, but wanted you to know I am praying for your dh at the loss of his Mother. She is resting in an Angel’s arms, now.
If the Louisiana pols didn’t use everything already sent their way to pad their pockets,....
I suppose they are a bit nervous, after Katrina. I agree it’s about time they paid attention, but really!
I am so glad I am leaving for upstate New York soon. :)
Glad you asked that - even tho I don’t have an answer for you. I had been missing onyx a lot, but thought we just weren’t crossing FR paths much because I’ve been having puter probs.
Her last post was early June. Rats. She gave the Dose to someone else. How sad. I thought it was because she was having cataract surgery, but it also seems there was an opus of sorts.
She may be with the others staying wide awake, but not sure about that - another place my puter probs won’t let me go.
Cayman is definitely under the gun - see this section for reports and updates from people there:

Speculators are wiggy with anticipation.
Let’s don’t even talk about FEMA trailers. I’m still so disgusted over that. I feel a REAL investigation is in order about those trailers. Somebody, probably several somebodies, got very wealthy from building those horrible trailers. I would like to know who.
On the sat photos, Dean now looks really, really bad.
Pray for Jamica to have rasta power to repel the storm to either side of the island.
