I don't worry so much about Anya this time around... I'm worried for everyone else in that band.

Especially New Orleans. That could get messy if things go very wrong.

The understatement of the year award goes to: Dark Vampriel! Congrats!

I know I've said it before, but I can't help but be concerned for Anya's safety in the midst of all this...

Don't forget that there's hurricanes every year and not all of them hit the States. Some end up just being tropical storms or depressions.

Well, at least one hurricane will hit the mainland. You can't just say that within 5 months, no hurricane would hit the states (or even the islands).

My friend near Atlanta is tired or me sending her the hurricanes. I was talking to her as parts of Ivan were over her house.

Yea...just like a usual spawn of 50 tornadoes on a bad night in the central US. That's a lot all right...next thing you know, I'll make a thread about it.

Anya: True but if you get ONE more... let it be Jeanne. Just so you can finish off the season early.

Colleen: Yea, but I think I'm the only user here from South Florida, save for Dryden, but he doesn't post enough.

Everyone else that posts here are about three or so hours away from me, towards the north.

They can still get nailed with something... maybe not hurricane-force winds but flooding or something.

Why don't we just ban hurricanes and put an end to this.

I'm too far north and to the west. To get touched by anything from a hurricane.

Did your hear anything at all when she spoke to you?

I just can't understand how you could live up in that area sometimes. But I guess you when you grow up around there, you get a bit used to it. But even so, that was just hard for me to say.

Even though I have a fear of tornadoes, I've never really been in one. The fear came from a nightmare (which is rare for me to have in the first place) when I was very young. I remember everything from it.

There was one time that I saw two tornadoes (on different accounts) from far away, and they didn't come close to where I was.

One funny story, is when I was 16, I was working at BK and it was a nice day out, and then someone mentioned that there was a tornado spotted about five miles away. I went to look out the window and I saw it! I had drive thru duty that day, so when I went back to my post, the people in drie thru saw it as well, but still waited like nothing was going on, just to get their food.

So it really doesn't surprise me when some people around here don't take certain hurricanes serisouly.

Yea, I worry for myself during this time of year, but I actually worry more for my grandmother (I mean, in the heat like that, at her age for a whole week) and my mother who lives on a freaking island (even though I haven't talked to her in ages).

There are so many natural disaters that can fall upon us all, really.

And hurricanes make "cool noises"...aw, sure, whatever you say. And I was talking to her over MSN, so no, I didn't hear anything.

MSN messanger...

Tornadoes can spawn from hurricanes, especially on the right side of the storm.

A friend of my father's lost his home in Charley due to a tornado. But at least with hurricane spawned tornadoes, you have a better warning, than with tornadoes that happen out of the blue.

Something that you might know, even though we are no where near tornado valley, the state of Florida is ranked number four for the amount of tornadoes that we do get. I found that information here. Illinois, where Hiryuu lives, is ranked number seven, as seen here. If I remember right, I think it was Charley that spawned about 12 or so tornadoes after he touched down, many in the Orlando area.

It's the same for me. But I get these kind nightmares frequently, so I'm used to it. But my fears are really, let's say...useless. We don't see much tornadoes around here, nor do we get hurricanes.

Likewise my dear, likewise.

You should've seen the one that leveled Utica, IL a few months ago. F3 Tornado alongside of a few F2, F1, and F0 spawns. The city doesn't exist anymore it was that bad.

Dang that's not cool to have a town completely leveled by tornadoes.
