well.... a hurricane is headed for new orleans (200 mi east of me) its gonna be a category 4...
sometimes hurricanes shift course and the weather ppl dont expect it to.
after monday if im not on for a while thats what happened.
i might evacuate i might not...
****! this sucks
i dont want it to hit here... and i dont want to say "i wish it would hit new orleans" beacuse theyre below sealevel...
this thing's already torn through florida so its either theyre screwed or im screwed...


edit:

the blue dot on the texas coast is where i am. as for me where i live if it hits me im royally f***ed

Ew... Actually, though, hope that it doesn't hit New Orleans. If it were to hit, as a category four... The whole city would be underwater. No joke.

My god that sounds scary.

I hope it doesn't effect either town since in both cases it'll be bad. Actually I hope it doesn't hit any town at all. Although I have no idea what a hurricane is like since I don't live in America... we only get floods or earthquakes.

Err... obviously there is some sort of hurricane scale so what is a four like?

Typhoons arn't different terms, they are different storms. They originate in different places and swirl in different ways, like toilet flushes.

We had a hurricane in Denmark a few years back. It was really odd, cause my city was right in the eye of the hurricane, where there's nothing. So we had a clear sky with no wind at all, and on the TV you could see pictures from other cities with heavy rain and wind. Odd.

we australians are lucky, i dont think weve had any natural disasters since around 1950-ish, or at least thats what ive read.

well, hope everything turns out for the best, and that silly hurricane decides it wants to go away before it hits anything else.

Didn't you have some sandstorm thing in one city sometime? I seem to recall something about it.
