Seems a 3rd hurricane is set to hit the US this weekend / early next week. Hurricane Ivan has reportedly destroyed upto 90 % of housing on Grenada, with winds up to 200 mph. Glad we live in Va not Fl.

Well, I didn't board up for Charley, boarded the North side of the house for Frances, but this morning I am going out to get plywood to board all of it (if I can get the plywood).

What did Ian Fleming write in Goldfinger ? Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action !

It's a Democratic plot to make Bush look bad and thus lose the November election.

bush does not need anyones help to look bad. He can manage that all on his own.

No, it's a republican plot so Bush can visit Florida, stand on the wreckage of a trailer park and spout shit through a bullhorn again. Then declare war on weather.

Look out for the new weather color coding system from Tom Ridge.

Great photos for Time Magazine and a poll booster.

I think it's really because I have booked our first proper family holiday for the 1st of October and our destination is Florida.

Well I've had enough of this I am selling up next April and moving to dallas Texas. If there is anything left to sell!

Hey, I'm in Dallas, don't think moving here will get you away from house damage

We might not have the hurricanes but we had to have our roof replaced last year after a giant hail storm, our satellite dish looks like the surface of the moon, all full of craters

Move from Hurricane Florida to Tornado Alley Texas. Smart move

Hmmmm......not a bad idea at all- after all the weather kills more people than terrorists do, and catching the wind or fog would be about as easy as catching OBL has proven.

It would give them an excuse to bomb North Korea. Or wherever takes their fancy.

most killer tornadoes are not in Texas and we are always getting tornado warnings in Tampa!

For some bloody reason, I read that as killer tomatoes and didn't have a clue what you were talking about

Anyways, this is tornado alley:
