No Ma'am...not from AKV/WLV or the Poly. :tink:

GF or CR?
 
Wow and I thought we had it bad with no power for 5 days. Not looking forward to that again. At least this time we have the travel trailer (if it doesn't blow away :eek:) which we can run everything, including the A/C with our generator.

My brother said the exact same thing. I could be going over there.
 

Israel? Russia?

Israel or Bali?

Elizabeth was the first to guess Israel :yay: That is the country. I will let this go one more round to see if anyone can tell me what this is.





Yes, hoping for the best for you Ed and Terri! :grouphug: I like Terri's idea of having the RV. You can leave and still have the comforts of home. At least as long as you have gas for your generator. I hope you don't lose power or don't lose it for long.....

Thanks for the well wishes. Still a chance it will turn North before hitting FL, that's what we are hoping for.
 
are all the different lines different tracks it is take? what do they mean

looks like a few of those lines do right thru the center of Florida

:rotfl: Florida has to get it's "fair share" of those suckers! I was actually thinking this would be the year Florida would get hit by a big one first. :faint: All those lines mean they don't have a clue exactly where the storm is going. It depends on hundreds of things...currents, water temperature, land masses, upper stirring flow...the weather people put all their information in a computer and it spits out the probable paths. If it goes over Cuba, it should loose some intensity; as it nears the coastline it may produce more moisture (which happened in Harvey). It's far from an exact "science"; who knows...Redstorm wants to go into meteorology...maybe she'll "be the one" to figure out a more exact way to predict hurricanes! :rolleyes: The unpredictability is what's "deadly"; residents don't want to leave their homes if it's not necessary. The "cone" narrows and storm predictions get a little more accurate, it's then often to late. For instance, Harvey was headed on a straight track for Corpus; early that Friday afternoon it stirred more toward Port Aransas/Rockport. While it didn't make a lot of difference in this case; other cases it makes a great deal of difference. The storm could avoid Florida landfall all together and go directly into the Gulf...but Ed and Terri will still feel tropical force winds. On the other hand...the eye of the storm could pass directly over Terri. Everyone just needs to be prepared.

I'm still having "get back to normal" problems too just like you! Glad you're was for a much better reason...a REGULAR holiday! :rotfl2: Do enough to "get by", make it through the short week and be ready to get busy next week! :tink:

Yes, those are all the different "track models" that different weather stations predict.

Thanks for the well wishes too.

Jeff, Karolyn and Terri said it good. There are like 20 to 30 different modeling programs that take into so many different factors.. a couple of them have become so much better that others. The European and US models are 2 of the more reliable ones out there. They both agree on the track until Irma gets close to Florida.

The US model has Irma turning north before getting to Florida. The European models has it turning north almost on the west coast or actually in the gulf. You could almost say that there are 3 sides to a hurricane. The left side of forward movement would be the best side to be on. So the best case scenario for most of Florida is the US model. Eye wall stays off the coast. East coast will still see the bad winds. If it comes up the center of the state everyone gets clobbered. The eye of the storm is 50 to 60 miles wide. Hurricane force winds extend 60+ miles out from the eye. The worst winds would cover just about the whole state coast to coast If the storm goes up the left side or in the gulf then the west then west coast and central Florida see the worst and I would see tropical force winds. Terri is in the center of the state and I am on the east coast. The weather channel just said that Irma measures about 360 miles across.
 
Thanks. Power loss is going to happen . When Jeanne and Frances hit, I didn't have power for 2 weeks following each storm. I am hoping to not lose cell service. Going to need all of WITW news desk.

Last I heard is the cool front won't help at all. It will be the second high pressure area that steers this storm.

I vote for Ed to GO TO DISNEY WORLD! ::yes:: I'm sure you could handle a 2 week stay!:rotfl2: I'd call for a room just in case; still a few days before you have to decide...IF there's enough gas left in your SUV to get you there! :rotfl: We passed 3-4 stations here on the volleyball road trip that have bags over the pumps and their signs turned off. Terri...just TIE THAT TRAILER DOWN TIGHT! :eek: That would be great to have if you loose your power and the winds have died down. You need some pretty sturdy anchors though for the winds that storm is producing! Unbelievable that it could cover the entire state! :eek: We'll be watching closely with y'all and hoping for the best. :grouphug: :tink:

Some good times; some bad and they finally ran into a 5A state playoff team that would get the best of 'em. :( Lost game 5 11-15 after winning 2nd & 3rd game and loosing game 1 and game 4. Good night for Redstorm...saved a LOT of balls and good night on the serve line...got her FIRST ACE :cheer2: of the season! Played a good team and certainly had their chances but just couldn't get it done tonight! :faint: :tink:
