Re: Dennis' Landfall

I think they're getting a little giddy...

On our non cable tv we can watch local channels - showing golf, car racing, movies or the Tour de France. Even HD secondary channels are showing local radar (even tho when there's a hurricane in the gulf our weather is always exactly the same - hot and dry!). Last year, the secondary channels showed hurricane coverage. Not this year.

But wait! ABC broke into their sports show to show a couple of minutes of Dennis update! Looks like wherever they are, 2 miles from Pensacola Beach, they're the only people around. Good.

Stay safe!

National Hurricane Center Director Max Mayfield said the distinction between a 3 and a 4 should matter little to those in Dennis' path.

"It's a little bit like the difference between getting run over by an 18-wheeler and a freight train. Neither prospect is good," he said.
