stockpile food and water...review your insurance documents...if you can afford insurance...hide in the closet...and don't forget your battery powered TV...the weatherman-of-doom is here to scare the life out of you


Hurricane season news coverage has officially begun!
 
Our local TV weatherman kept saying, "I wouldn't want to be you!" as severe areas of the hurricanes moved through central Florida. That's real "refreshing" to hear!

The guy got blasted on talk radio shows for his uneeded hysteria... And - he deserved it..

there was another forum i was on. one member under the spot for "Location" under their name had the following:

"I live in the harmless praries, no hurricanes, no earthquakes, no tsunamis"

and every time i saw it i always thought "What about tornadoes?" since the "praries" obviously means the midwest, aka tornado alley.

i live in Washington. the TRUE harmless part of the country. we had a tornado...took of someones shed door and a few shingles from a house.

we also had an earthquake that rated a whopping F0 and didn't even wake me up in the middle of the night.

we're on the wrong side of the continent for hurricanes, and i personally am too far inland for tsunamis.
 
After going through 3 hurricanes, I know tornadoes are much worse.
Central Florida is not known for killer mid-west tornadoes, but we got a few..
Just a couple miles south of where I live, 22 people lost their lives in the middle of the night! I emphasize that since most all of the strong, damaging thunderstorms happen late in the afternoon -- not this storm thunderstorm!

Some say this was due to the governments project called HARRP, and I cannot disagree with that suggestion since there never was a tornado outbreak this bad - ever in Florida.

Quote from link:

"22-23 February 1998 (Sunday-Monday), the most devastating tornado outbreak ever to occur in the state of Florida, in terms of both loss of life and property damage, occurred within the National Weather Service Office in Melbourne's (NWS MLB) county warning area. Forty-two people died as a result of the tornadoes and more than 260 others were injured.

...it was evident that this event was of historical significance."
