Hurricane Joaquin: Category 4 storm is unlikely to make direct landfall, but forecasters are warning of flash floods from historic Charleston, South Carolina, to Washington, D C., and officials in Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia are bracing for the worst.

Yeah, apparently we're all going to die. Again.

I will be in my closet with my cat
Twice a tree came through my bedroom window. Imagine waking up to that & then climbing over it.

The trees!

I might as well laugh & order take out

You're in Wyoming now. Where were you when the Hurricane put trees through your house?

i hate it when that happens...

I am sorry I cannot confirm or deny classified information.
So...I will inbox you the coordinates.

It's partially over land. It can strengthen when it gets back over open water.

probly will, with the warm waters there.. right in the middle of the gulf stream

I follow the storms on the NOAA website.

This is where I also follow storms and weather patterns up here.

I have lived on the coast long enough to know that when they are predicting a storm to make landfall here and its 4 days away it isn't happening.

Walmart near Ocean City was out of water 2 days ago.... haha...

Oh that is funny

Have the fema cards been issued yet?

Like the Katrina refugees, hurricane survivors are gonna need new tattoos, and money for strippers.

Here are a couple of links I use for my own weather stuff. I do occasionally listen to "expert" weather reports too, but I always start from these RADAR and satellite based views, to decide for myself whether the mass-media-profit-driven frenzies are worth paying attention to or not.

I could see myself that Joachim wasn't moving north at any rate at all, all last week. So every time some reporter claimed I'd need to duck in cover the next day, I knew they were just drinking the wrong hooch on the job.

You can start from mine, and use links to home and such to find a version that shows you your own area.

i just use intellicast.com, they have all the radars that i need to see... they predict it will go out to sea without hitting anymore land
