Re: Jeanne's a Hurricane

My neighbor went to pick up batteries and candles. I couldn't help but to laugh at her. (As a Fl girl, what we're going to get will be a picnic compaired to what Al/Fl got)



Why on earth would you laugh at her? The last time I checked it's just as dark in Georgia when the power goes out as it is in Florida. You know the power goes at here at times with a slight breeze, much less the remnants of a strong hurricane.

In addition, being on the east side of the remnants, tornadoes are a distinct possibility. Remember last week when the center of circulation from Frances went through west Georgia, yet South Carolina got hit with 36 tornadoes?

Seems ironic that a "Florida gal" would laugh at someone preparing for a storm.
