Just saw a report saying Hurricane Matthew is expected to crank back up to a Cat. 4 and head right towards south Florida. This is a big dog that's been wrecking shit and killing folks. I think the latest model has it going right over GF's house.
Seriously, as populated as that area of the state is, this could be a disaster. Hope it takes a quick turn to the east and out to sea.

I read for about half a day it was a cat 5. Strongest recorded in 9 years or something. That thing gets anywhere near land and it's gonna be trouble for sure. What about the uga game in Columbia?

I imagine that's about the time this thing should be working its way into South Cakalakee. I hope it blows a tree on every Georgia fans' car.

Hitting it and then looping back around and hitting it again. That's some serious ju-ju.
Why does God hate south Florida? Is it because of the Dolphins?

Just saw that too..very possible that loops around, hits FL again, gets into the Gulf, strengthens back up and hits gulf coast

Personally, I blame GF, because he hasn't invited us to his pool.

Question. I don't much watch the weather unless it's for my area, but did I see in the local news last night that a tropical storm is out there headed to the coast and could possibly colide with the Matthew? Would that cause some "perfect storm" like shit?

Project Stormfury
In the early 1960s, two significant developments in the area of storm modification energized the quest to weaken and eradicate the hurricane. The first was the development of a new cloud seeding process by Dr. Robert H. Simpson, who was the director of the National Hurricane Research Labs in Miami, Florida.
Simpson, who eventually went on to develop the classification system known as the Saffir-Simpson Scale, theorized that hurricanes could be weakened by releasing frozen nuclei or particles of Silver Iodide compound (AgI) into the wall clouds of a hurricane or tropical storm, and imbalance the forces within the storm system.
Simultaneously, a group at the Navy Weapons Center in California improved seeding technology by developing new seeding generators that would be able to release large amounts of crystals into tropical storms and hurricanes.
As a result, Project Stormfury was born in 1962. Prior to that, a test case had already been done on Hurricane Esther in September, 1961, and with some success. The project team of workers from both the U.S. Weather Bureau and the Navy was able to decrease the sustained winds in the storm by ten percent.
After the creation of Project Stormfury, the new team assembled put together a reformulated idea on how to attack a hurricane. They proposed that a hurricane could be weakened by converting the supercooled water within the deep clouds of the storm is converted to ice, the hurricane's vertical column of air would be warmed and the storm would be weakened.
The team didn't have many chances to work on this new idea over the next eight years because there wasn't any storms that were far enough from land, and the team didn't want to risk litigation in case something went wrong. The team did have several chances though.
First, in 1963, they were able to conduct tests on Hurricane Beulah, but with only marginal success. Then, in 1965, the team considered seeding Hurricane Betsy, but due to the close proximity to Puerto Rico and other Caribbean islands, and the storm's erratic motion, the team did not go through with it, and Betsy ended up slamming into South Florida and causing severe damage.
Betsy was the last major hurricane to make a direct hit on South Florida before 1992 when Hurricane Andrew devastated Homestead, Florida and ended up causing $27 billion dollars in damage. Finally, in 1969, Project Stormfury was going to have a significant test case.
It was on the heels of Hurricane Camille barreling into the Gulf Coast regions of Mississippi and Alabama when Hurricane Debby was seeded on a couple of occasions over the two day period of August 19-20, 1969. Each time the storm was seeded, sustained winds were reduced significantly.
The first time, winds dropped 31 percent while the second time, they only dropped 15 percent. The apparent success with Debby helped fuel new projects, and improvements in technology. In particular, Hurricane Hunter aircraft, which went up dramatically during the 1970s.
Ultimately though, Project Stormfury was cancelled in 1980 since the team was unable to clearly ascertain whether or not the seeding efforts were really causing storms to weaken, or the systems just became victims of the environment around them. Nevertheless, the work done did bear some fruit as forecasters and scientists alike were able to learn a great deal from their research, and it has helped them improved forecasting accuracy.

So what you are saying is that we have no idea who is in possession of the weathering machine that GWB used to create Katrina!
We are doomed!

Obama has it, that's why this this storm could hit Florida twice, teach them mofo's about having hanging chads.

Matthew strengthened back into a Category 4 hurricane Thursday, the National Hurricane Center announced, as emergency officials urged some 2 million people from Florida to South Carolina to pack up and get out.
The storm's top wind speed surged to 140 mph Thursday morning, officials said. Matthew was moving northwest near 14 mph between Andros Island and Nassau in the Bahamas. Forecasting models predicted the storm could ride up the coast all the way to South Carolina, possibly making landfall over Florida Thursday night.
"When a hurricane is forecast to take a track roughly parallel to a coastline, as Matthew is forecast to do from Florida through South Carolina, it becomes very difficult to specify impacts at any one location," National Hurricane Center forecaster Lixion Avila said.
The death toll in Haiti rose to 65, officials told Reuters on Thursday, saying the storm killed at least four people elsewhere in the Caribbean.

This "parallel to the coastline" part is pretty scary. Anyone that is close best be making some rangements.

Weather update:
The wind picked a little bit today. That one cloud though wouldn't stay put to block some of that damn sunlight.

Seriously though, any word from GF?
Saw a pic where the Daytona Speedway itself was flooded up past the track.

Can't imagine he had any problems, out here in the west part of Palm Beach Co where the poor people live we didn't even lose power. I'm sure over there in the rich neighborhoods everything is fine.

Oh, so that's a "gated" community that GF lives in.
I've misunderstood that for years and just assumed.
