thanks teezdalien!

yes, stuart is right (scary, i know). cyclone is the same thing; just in the southern hemisphere. it spins the opposite direction because of the Coriolis Effect.

similarly to your toilet flushing the opposite direction as ours

Yah, we've been lucky that no other hurricane has gone by since 2005, but I hate it when some shit storm appears on the radar, and the media blows it the fuck up:

People run batshit around, buying crazy amounts of canned goods and gas goes up, the only good thing out of it is the "Hurricane parties"

i hope the hurricane forecast is wrong (it wouldn't be a first). my brother is getting ready to sail to the carribean to live there for a year.

Rose, your vagina better get prepared. That's all I'm saying.

SCIENCE!!!

But in reality... anomalously warm SST's in the Atlantic and weakening El Nino point to a higher than normal value. People should realize that it is impossible to predict the exact number of hurricanes (unless you are accuweather and will beat your chest of you are right and fade into the distance, if like usual, you are completely wrong)...but trends towards signalling higher than normal. It boils down to climatological statistics... probabilistic trends...but really...weak el nino and warm sst's that will give way for much more favorable dynamic and thermodynamic conditions in the atmosphere for hurricane development.

you're back

me?
