It's really raining, on and off every hour.

This bouy is out in the 60 knot tropical storm...almost a hurricane on any
TV station, Weather Channel, NWS website.....

Notice how the surface winds near the 60 knot winds, directly in front of
the storm that's now just off Charleston are reading:

Wind Direction (WDIR): E ( 80 deg true )
5-day plot - Wind Speed Wind Speed (WSPD): 25.3 kts
5-day plot - Wind Gust Wind Gust (GST): 29.1 kts
5-day plot - Wave Height Wave Height (WVHT): 14.1 ft
5-day plot - Dominant Wave Period Dominant Wave Period (DPD): 11
sec
5-day plot - Average Period Average Period (APD): 7.5 sec

Is television telling lies to scare people into panic buying at WalMart and
the other advertisers' stores? It certainly looks this way from here.....

Hell, they were standing in a long line this morning to buy propane!
