Default Wow!


Just saw that Hurricane Irma is producing wind gusts of 225 mph. That's
incredible.

Hoping those in Florida have no serious damage or more importantly
injuries. There's a little bit of encouragement that forecasters think
it will lose a little of it's punch by the time it hits although it
could still be a strong Cat 3 or a Cat 4. Getting wacked with a Cat 5
could be devastating.

If it goes straight up through Florida it seems the worst would be on
the eastern coast, being in the strongest quandrant.
