Here We Go Again.......

Well, it's only eleven days into the 2006 Atlantic hurricane season and we have our first tropical storm. And just guess where it's headed


FLORIDA!


At least it's just a small storm (for now).

Hmmmm. What could I say about that? Hmmmm.

(Lemme see...oh yeah, here it is...mostly sunny over Bend, high around 70 degrees, overnight down to low 50's, winds 1-3 knots out of the south...) (Wait, here's another...Summer steelheading has picked up on the Deschutes River, with fish to 20 lbs. being caught near the center of town...)

You Floridians.....always complaining about something. Weather, ballots, etc.

Uh oh...

I heard on a TV show the other day that it's not so much the material buildings are made out of as the way it's held together. The materials don't "break" apart so much as come apart at the joins. i'e, . screws instead of nails. ...lotsa screws.

Any truth to that?

If so, I hope you have lots of plywood, lots of long screws and a tourqy power screwdiver. ...and lots a good luck thay it bypasses ya or at least is as weak as a kitten.

 

[Hi Ho]

About all we have to worry about here in Washington are earthquakes. It's 70 and sunny here.

and volcanos!

Hey, my plan is to become another transplant to the Northwest.

Hurricane center says Alberto might become a Category 1 by tonight. No problem for us in Central Florida. It's heading North through the panhandle. Just another wet, rainy week. But still, a hurricane after only two weeks into the season.

EDIT: Matt, I keep telling you that Florida blows. Just more proof.

 

[mazersteven]

not again

Hey I don't want to do this again. Hurricane Francis

 

[Hi Ho]

and volcanos!

Well that depends on where you live. Just don't move to Orting (in a valley right next to Mt. Rainier.

On the coast, there are tsunami's.

I don't have to worry about those things.

If memory serves me right, that ain't the only active volcano in Washington

I see that you're due for 40" of rain before the blow is done. That'll stop that drought in its tracks, alrighty. Think on the bright side...it'll keep the palmetto bugs down.

It sure isn't, but they say it's most likely to go next.

 

[majorloser]

And yet AGAIN!

Latest predictions make hurricane Ernesto hitting the West coast of central Florida.

(Gene: you can always drive over here )

20 lbs Rainbows!! Where again are you located.

 

[majorloser]

20 lbs Rainbows!! Where again are you located.

Mr. Budz lives in my (hopefully) future new home. The beautiful state of Oregon.

 

[billy p]

ahh

to live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, both here in Canada and the U.S.! Must be a painfull decision !!

 

[majorloser]

Argh!

This mornings release. At least it may just be a Catagory 1 storm...........maybe.

EDIT: Monday afternoon update

 

[billy p]

Hope people don't

take this storm lightly. Wilma did alot of damage to the major urban centers last year as a cat one, this guys going in that direction head on? I hope FEMA is up to the task this time!!
Good luck, Dave
Regards, Bill

Bah - we live in Florida. What's the worst that could happen?

Well, you could be laughing at the storm ("What weasly storm?!", says Clint) when a palmetto bug comes flying/blowing in the door at 110 mph and catches you right in the teeth. Ewww.

That would be bad.
