Thanks for the latest participation everybody!

So it's getting beat up a bit, but not done yet. The sats show the damage, but it doesn't seem to be destroyed yet, Yes we want it to go away, right?

OK, I'm the inappropriate one who loves a storm. Yes, please no harm, no damage, no financial cost, but outside of that, I love a beautiful spinning tropical storm and every wave I see I wish it would become an sight to behold. (Disclaimer: until it affects somebody.)

I was born to be a meteorologist, even at 7 or 8 years old in Colorado Springs I was predicting hail storms and blizzards. I would be outside staring at the sky examining every cloud, and breeze. And that started as young as 4 or so. Why I didn't pursue that path, I don't know. But I started fixing things (anything that had moving parts) as a kid and ended up fixing machines and in I.T. since 1978. Now mostly web programming these days.

Maybe since I am not a professional meteorologist I can freely "wishcast" and fantasize about being Jim Cantori in the upper right quadrant of the eye wall of a Cat 2 or 3 storm, clinging onto anything that keep me from flying away...

Yea, I know, sick, but I bet none of us would on this website if we didn't have a "little" bit of that in us!

Anyway, thanks again and let's keep this site as the best.
