Thanks for the info on Erin.

I've always written off storms as soon as they got over land since I assumed that once cut-off from their energy source (warm ocean waters) that would slowly spin down and die. However given the right conditions its clearly possible a storm can not only survive but thrive (for short periods atleast) while over land. I think Fay will become one of those storms that gets studied in detailed in attempts to figure out just which parameters in the astmosphere are needed to keep a storm going.
