Someone should ask Miss Global Warming Denier Sarah Palin what she thinks of all this horrid weather. She would say: "God is angry at the gays" or some crap.
its a regular year long White party down there.

can't answer that... google a bit maybe?
okay, how many did they have 20 years ago on average per season?
hurricanes feed/grow on warm water... we're having warmer summers in the Gulf. hence, more storms.
why is it warmer? why are ice shelves continuing to break off in the polar regions? its supposed to be cold there, right?
if its a myth, what do you attribute climate changes to?
No but the rare event that it was is now going to be an every season funfest thanks to a century of burning everything like it is a fall day and the leaves are raked up and the smell of football is in the air. Dipsh*t.
Please cross your fingers and toes that Ike loses strengh sooner rather than later. Thanks.
Ike is supposed to be a category 1 well after passing Houston.
Gas is already over $5 a gallon in some places in the country, even with crude oil dropping, and this is why. Oil can be $2 a barrel and it won't make any difference if the refineries suffer serious damage. That's the bottleneck.
Hold onto your butts.
Where in Houston are you? I'm at Stella Link & Bellaire. And we flooded during Allison! So I'm hoping for not much rain!
Where the hell is our great leader W amidst all of this???
Why doesn’t he broadcast himself into people’s living rooms reassuring people, telling people he will release strategic oil reserves, give people some psychological demerol, clam everyone down a bit.
Zero leadership, same as it always was.
PATHETIC
Not necessarily. The storm hasn't gotten here in Houston yet. No rain and relatively light winds. Just wait.... we'll be incommunicado before long!
We are starting to lose power and my neighbor just lost theirs. Send your good vibes down south, we need it.
Reports of damage are starting to come in from the further inland from Galveston.
Galveston is completely without power now, so darkness for the next 10 hours or so, as they endure the worst of the storm. Worst is yet to come.
Just had a 46mph gust here in downtown houston.
Our electrical lines run through some old oak trees and I see the trees really getting knocked around so not sure how long it will be before our end of the street is without power.
Other parts of Houston are without power already.
hurricane winds, 80-95mph will be in downtown Houston around midnight.
Expecting 5-10 inches of rain.
More later....
Send good thoughts our direction...it's getting pretty intense...
I guess it's all a personal decision, and like I said, Cat 4 or 5 and we would have left this morning. But it's a strong Cat 2 or may become a low cat 3 and that's not as bad for us. If we lose electricity, I'd rather be here at the house than out of town trying to get back in.
I hope I don't sound like one of those dumb people in Galveston who stayed. There is NO WAY I would have stayed in Galveston for this one. We're 70 miles inland and so again, not as worried. Hope my rambling makes sense... :-)
Still windy but no rain...worst to come about midnight or 1 am.
And next January and February when I'm wearing shorts and enjoying a nice meal outside on the deck overlooking the pool, I'll remember your post! :-)
