Hurricane Sandy From Space
NASA
Just in case you thought the Hurricane hype couldn't get any louder, check out this dispatch from Weather Channel meterologist Stu Ostro:
- History is being written as an extreme weather event continues to unfold, one which will occupy a place in the annals of weather history as one of the most extraordinary to have affected the United States.
- REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE OFFICIAL DESIGNATION IS NOW OR AT/AFTER LANDFALL -- HURRICANE (INCLUDING IF "ONLY" A CATEGORY ONE), TROPICAL STORM, POST-TROPICAL, EXTRATROPICAL, WHATEVER -- OR WHAT TYPE OF WARNINGS ARE ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AND NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER -- PEOPLE IN THE PATH OF THIS STORM NEED TO HEED THE THREAT IT POSES WITH UTMOST URGENCY...
- With Sandy having already brought severe impacts to the Caribbean Islands and a portion of the Bahamas, and severe erosion to some beaches on the east coast of Florida, it is now poised to strike the northeast United States with a combination of track, size, structure and strength that is unprecedented in the known historical record there...
- A meteorologically mind-boggling combination of ingredients is coming together:

Is this the same guy that said hurricane Isaac was going to hit “the landmass between New Orleans and Alabama”. That un-named land mass happens to be Mississippi, it’s now reffered to as “Landmassia” by some.
Hurricanes spawn tornados as well, he didn’t even mention that !
Close, but no cigar... :-)
Batten not Battan
Sorry typing to fast.. That and that Eagles game took it out of me.
Bedtime, big day tomorrow!!
'Hurricane' is much scarier than 'tropical storm'...it is Halloween, after all.
I already heard an idiot, I think in Maine, saying that this should result in delaying the election a few weeks.
Well, Otraitor-o took HIS time off while Benghazi embassy personnel were being tortured and murdered. ‘Bout time he put some time in at the job, eh?
By the way, nutty, yes. Going under through that thin salt water ice into moving, deep water making the Academy guys have to go after the “victim” is nutty.
My buddy started his landscape archtictecting business in the months after that storm having discoverd how talented he was at climbing old trees with a chainsaw.
There was much of that work.
Our problem is a yard full of numerous ginormous looming old creaky trees, several of which could fall directly onto our roof, pretty much on all sides of our house,which would completely destroy our 2nd floor — or, even several of their really heavy creaky old branches, some of which probably weight 2 tons themselves.
So, we’re sleeping downstairs. . . .
I live 75 miles from the water at VA beach and I just told a friend of mine I upgraded the storm to a category .3 storm. “Irritating to walk the dog in”
I’m sure someone here has already asked for clarification, but is this Huge or Series?
My cats will NOT be happy with the howling wind. They hate t-storms, for example. The lizards, on the other hand, cope a lot better. Nothing bothers them except if I'm late with the crickets, LOL.
Make that Hugh or Series. Sheesh!

“Fox...has Whorealdo standing out in the street.”
Excellent! Any chance they can leave him there until after the election?
By the grace of God, for those who love Him, or will.
