Yes. I admit that he knows (a lot) more than I do about the study of weather. What's the problem with that?
No, I'm laughing at you and your declaration of Met Mike18xx's authority.

Yes, because the screenname "MannyIsGod" gives you a LOT of credibility.You're awesome at this. Anyone who disagrees with you is insulted and cast out of hand. Must be a pretty simple way to go about believing you're right.
You're awesome..
This thread exemplifies the reason I stopped debating anyone on any serious topic on the internets. There is little point, and it just degenerates into name calling.
On other matters, Ike is a good-lookin hurricane, but not as pretty as Maemi:
I stood in the outskirts of that mofo as it flattened an island. Biggest storm in the northwest Pacific in 40 years.
You guys should go and live in Okinawa if you love typhoons!
I thought you liked to be spanked not whipped??? Have I confused you with another good looking man?

any residents of tinaturner, USA better watch the out!
Hey Manny...
Checked the models this morning?
That sucker isn't hooking and looks like it could make it into the gulf.
A few models have it slightly curvin but it's definitely going to hit the U.S. either on the east side of Florida or in the Gulf somewhere...yikes!
So there's a coin flip's chance I may be going to Miami to provide Web site help to one of our stations there. I know what I would be doing for those few hours I'd be off work.
Hurricane Hunters just penetrated the eye of Ike.
Pressure: 959 MB
Max Winds: 124 MPH
We'll see.
That H pressure extension in between Ike and Hannah is the just weird. Its already pushing Ike south of where the any of the models who think its going to recurve so CC is right that every 6 hours or so this storm looks more and more likely to get into the Gulf.
I still cant' believe the Euro which has it going into LA again. It would be extremely odd if that happend.
Models just updated. They are starting to narrow and seem to pretty much agree that Ike is gonna shoot the gap between Florida and Cuba and may hit the Florida keys as a category 4.
There are no words for how horrible this storm is shaping up for Florida. If he drifts N at all and then recurves, he could possibly hit Miami, Tampa, Orlando and Ft. Lauderdale in one fell swoop.Models just updated.

Or he could sweep in just south of Miami and skirt the west coast of Florida all the way up before hanging a right and breaking out to the eastern seaboard.
Everyone living in Florida should be on full alert this weekend. Ike could still go cat 4-5. Intensity forecasts have been awful this year and extremely conservative and they have him as a strong 4 right now.
What a great post to announce that I fly out to Miami tomorrow morning until the storm passes (come back Friday).
Wouldn't you rather know going in? I mean, I don't like being the bearer of bad news, but the more information you have, the better off you are in this case. I would start making preparations to get out if the forecast turns grim.
I have a very bad feeling about this storm. It's probably the last time we'll ever see a hurricane named "Ike".
And you're complaining about what I say? Thats such a huge unfounded thing to say.
Florida gonna get wet.

Oh, I volunteered for this assignment. I love covering big news and jumped at this chance when I got the initial call last night. I've been told the newsroom I'm going to gets shuttered, so as long as there's power and a net connection... I've got some news going.
well crap, I wanted to see if you wanted to go get that coffee tonight.
What's an EWRC?
Eyewall replacement cycle.
JB - take me with you!
So looking at it right now, would it be safe to say that Miami would get the brunt of the storm since it'd be to the north of the eye?
HAHA... honestly, man, I have a feeling I'm going to be stuck inside that station for 36 hours straight once that hurricane gets close to Miami.
Honestly, as much as I thought it was extremely unlikely the more its looking like this storm is going to miss Florida all together and hit Cuba then end up in the Gulf. Its not looking very good right now and the farther south it gets the less time it has to ever regain strength before making a landfall.
