Irene

(1/2) > >>

Josef W. Segur:
SciManStev and I are wondering what tomorrow will bring as Hurricane Irene comes ashore. The model forecast tracks leave it uncertain. The most westerly forecast brings it directly over my location tomorrow evening, others threaten Steve more though I'm not certain where in New Hampshire he lives. It's large enough that we'll both get a lot of wind and rain no matter how it tracks. Should be an interesting experience.  ::)

Mike:
I hope everything goes well for both of you.
Steve is a close friend of mine so i worry.
He mentioned elsewhere Irene could hit his area also.
Fingers crossed.

Raistmer:
Ouh...  :o  :(

arkayn:
Stay safe.

If it's the first time for you it can be a harrowing experience.  Just remember to have the windows taped, stay down, and listen to emergency broadcasts in case of evacuation order.  We used to get quite a lot of these (well Cyclones we call them when rotating the proper way  ;))  in North Queensland when I was very small.  Best of luck & stay safe, I'm seeing various news of places that have been hit already, so I guess if it hasn't passed over you already then you're still to cop it.

BTW: these things tend to have an 'eye' of calm that can pass over, leading the curious to go outside for a look.  Don't do that, the other side comes suddenly & is responsible for most casualties that way.
