its always fun taking bets on who will be the first moron to get trapped after going around the barricades.
Do it, I'll gladly sponsor the purchase of a webcam
Maybe if AHF and I sell advertising on our rain slickers we can get this financed!

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you just said but you have no clue how much I truely love and appreciate you.
I basically said stupid people annoy the out of you too.
You gonna do a live shot with the horizontal rain at your house?
I'm gonna probably leave. I'm not one of those redneck jackasses that think their gonna have a storm party and not get their mullet blown clear the off. I live in a top floor apartment and my wife's family lives in a house that will probably lose its roof within the first 2 minutes. I just flat have no where to go where I'd feel safe riding out a Cat 2 or even a 1.
I imagine I'd go to SA and visit my Grandfather.
I'm hoping this doesn't come here. It would stiffle my entire plan I laid out over the last 5 years. I'd probably have to find a new job and good paying jobs don't exactly grow on trees.
oh yeah I do hate stupid people.
I'm not going back and reading whatever it is that happened but I would be shocked if it was anything other than some people completely misunderstanding your point and just hurling away simply to argue with you....because its you. No doubt you're a condecending prick but I understand that you angle things just like I do.
Its nearly impossible to get anyone on this forum to:
"Make a point and make your arguement because you're gonna have to prove me wrong beyond just running insults out".
How many times have we had to request that on this forum?
Hope that doesn't happen.
I think the two o'clock update is gonna show this bad boy going to Brownsville/Mexico.
He's gonna hit the Rio Grande area
Rollin'... Rollin'... Rollin' on a rivah... DOOT, doot doot doot, DOOT, doot doot doot
Another hurricane, another hosing in the rain gauge.
nooooooooooo
not down here again!!
in dolly knocked out my power for like 20 hrs...sucked ass....
Ike Diogu is a welcome addition to the Portland Trail Blazers.
Damn, the models showing a landfall in the valley now.
Standby to standby is all I can say about hurricanes in general ESPECIALLY Ike.
If I can, I report "Live from the San Antonio EOC" when I'm there...
These "ridiculous arguments" you talk about were being espoused by individuals with more meteorology education than you or I have, Manny. I saw the points they made and agreed with them. Ike didn't retain annular characteristics for more than 12-14 hours, but they were there. No hurricane to my knowledge has been annular for the duration of it's lifetime. By the time our disagreement had picked up steam, Ike was already returning to standard garden-variety hurricane.
It's interesting that you would use "prediction" to absolve yourself of anything you say. So to be clear, you cannot be wrong, because you left a chance (however small) of yourself to be wrong when forecasting a system? Despite the fact that it did in fact make it into the Gulf, you're still right and I'm wrong because you made a supposedly obvious call? If only sports bookies were afforded the same kind of leeway when betting on the Monday Night Football game!
And if it was so unlikely that Ike would go where he has, then why is there an entire thread full of posts on Ike in the accuweather forums stating precisely why he wouldn't curve out to the Atlantic? Go look it up. They aren't just pissing into the wind to see the color of their own urine over there. Of course, with a name like mike18xx, how much could they know?
I've been as diplomatic as possible about this and have even restrained from posting in this thread for a while. However, since you are going to continue calling me out, I'm going to respond that you are not the only person in the internet qualified to talk about weather and forecasting. If you want to continue being a to me, then by all means go for it, but it's becoming quite clear to everyone else here exactly what just happened: Ike is in the Gulf, and you are getting seriously defensive. Chill out, it's just a hurricane. They're hard as to predict anyway and without the models we would likely all be taking shots in the dark. If the high shifts to the East faster, you end up making the call and I look like I have no clue what I'm talking about. I don't see a reason to take it personally. Then again, I don't mind being wrong very much... that happens too frequently for me to get upset about.
Having said all that, Manny and I are big boys. You guys making comments about it being a " fight" and so on, let me remind you: You're posting on an internet forum about a basketball team, in a thread about weather, trying to act like a tough guy. You're really getting it down pat there. It does not make you cooler when you respond to a thread that's far over your head with, "omg itz teh Nturnet u guyz r gay". But hey, if that's what boosts your self-confidence....

I figured you'd be less than enthuastic about that.
Think about this though, load up as many "Jerry Cans" of unleaded you can find in your ride and while you're stuck on 37 you can get an eaasy $50-$100 a can from all the saps who didn't fill up before they got out of town.
Seriously though, if this holds true, GTFO.
I'm not worried about getting the out. I'm more worried about the aftermath.
Have any of these forcasts proven to be this accurate this far out?
I wouldn't think so, too many variables in the mix.
I think since forecasts are to be taken as absolutes around here apparently, I'd suggest you wait another day or two before you start re-stratergerizing your game plan.
