Re: Hurricane Irene Moving Away from Hispaniola

There was just a 5.8 mag earthquake northwest of Richmond Virginia.

Right now the track of Irene is on the NHC's track. I don't think it's going to change much if at all over the next few days.

BTW, Irene is nowhere near annular, the entire system needs to be nearly perfectly round for that.




Yeah - we had to evacuate my building - just got back in a little bit ago.

I've been through Cat 4 storms, but being on the 3rd floor when an earthquake hits? You start wondering if you shouldn't head down the stairs

/sorry for the OT post.
