The Climate nuts are so praying for a Cat 5.
Don’t worry it will mess around in the East for Years without accomplishing anything.
The big question is will the storm end up in the Gulf of Mexico—heading towards the oil production platforms off the coast of Louisiana or Texas. That is the type of thing that could send the price of crude oil soaring.
Reporters everywhere are wetting themselves with anticipation.
How many hundreds of people are employed by the NWS to sit at their desks and wait for a storm to form, no matter how minuscule the chances that they will be a threat to our coasts? Our well-equiped television weather stations can do the same thing with private money, not money from the federal government.
Case in point: For decades, the TV weathermen in Oklahoma City have been the best at warning viewers of approaching tornadoes, much harder than slow-moving hurricanes. The NWS, realizing this, decided to put the government’s weather center in Norman, 25 miles south of OKC, so they could get in on the action and cash their taxpayer-funded paychecks. They are totally redundant and a waste of money the US Treasury could use.
I’m sure the Warmers will be out in force telling us this hurricane is a direct result of AGW. We’ve had a reduction in these storms over the past several years, but facts DO NOT matter to them.
Obama and the rest of these nuts have an agenda that includes destroying our coal industry, and having us live like serfs. They need to push this myth, by any means, at all costs.
I loathe Warmers!
Not that I want Danny to hit Puerto Rico (lot’s of family, friends and colleagues there), but they really need the rain. There has been a huge water drought there for most of the last 18 months. This will be a blessing if it passes by as a TS or a light Hurricane without causing much damage. Also, if there is major damage, the sympathy volume will be so high that the Republicans in congress will feel like they have to act and provide PR a financial bailout on top of hurricane relief. The economic problems in PR are systemic and need to be restructured not bailed out.
Will the hurricane expect more respect tomorrow?
“I’ll take it!”
