Research will hopefully be able to give you status green, yellow, or RED. As for your funding issues however, I don't really understand those....sounds like corruption? And corruption happens within both corporations and governments.
I live in a zone where if the hell breaks loose (nearby volcano) I have 4hours to evacuate.
Since this eruption only happens each 100 years or so, there is completely no profit margin for any company to spend money on it. However, being alert is an issue for the COUNTRY.
So, there is a lot of research and evac test-runs going on, since it's tic-toc-soon-time.
I do not regret seeing my tax money going on that....

Wait a sec, isn't that same "scientist" now arguing that GW is a farce while big oil money lines his pockets?

hmmmmmmmmm

Well, aren't it those "funded" or even employed scientists that are having New Orleans evacuated right now?

angus...  so without government funding we would have no hurricane science or warning?

Isn't it government who made it possible for all those people to continue to be in the path of that hurricane in a place that is below sea level?   Won't government just fix the place up again on my dime when the hurricane destroys it so that people can live there and wait for the next hurricane?

It wasn't the gov that plonked that city down there in the first place...it was completely free choice.
As for the warning, did you see any corporate warning? The gov. has warned and taken measure for something that seems to be petering out to storm strength. I guess that now you will state that less knowledge of the weather system is just the right thing. Sems to me that MORE is needed.
And, at last, there is another brewing, and heading for Carolina. More data.

The evil oil companies did. They evacuated thier workers and told them to prepare for the storm.

I'm pretty sure that if you'd have been there you'd have locked yourself up inside with your guns  :D

Well, luckily it wasn't all that a bad hurricane.
Up here we had some abnormalities this year, quite a storm in July (which I do not recall before) as well as a wild one now in August with windspeed up to 130 mph. That was rather bad. I'll try to post some pics later.
Luckily it didn't throw the family car over, but the Greenhouse went airborne and fresh turf started wrapping up! Even my air compressor was no the move.
I hate storms, so I guess I live in the wrong place  :eek:
