[nuchpatrick]

Eagler better keep yer hatch down too bud..This TS 12 is going to suck.. I have to put all my lawn stuff up before I go away for business to New Orleans..

Center of the eye of Hugo passed about a mile from where I was staying. Think the final verdict on that one was sustained winds of 135, but the measuring devices at several local locations were destroyed at 150mph+.

to ya and good luck. I'll be thinking about you guys, I'm just west of ya watching this thing pass by.

Update..from your friendly neighborhood hurricane weatherman:

Bermuda Public Forecast
Issued at 4:30 pm - Thursday, 4th September, 2003
Headline - Hurricane Warning

Public Synopsis - Fabian approaches from the south and is expected to be an almost direct hit late Friday. Friday morning will start with tropical storm force winds and steadily increase to hurricane force by Friday afternoon. We can expect embedded thunderstorms, heavy surf, storm surge and potential tornados to affect the island as Fabian passes by.

YIKES!

The CEO of the Electric Light Company said that this storm is going to make Emily look like a sugar coated candy stick...whatever that is.

Tornados scare me....me don't likey at all.

We are still hoping for a "wobble"...where the storm changes course just enough to cause significantly less damage.

[NUKE]

I'd be getting out of there myself Curval. How can you protect your condo if your spattered all over it?

Nothing is worth your life.

Too late for that dude.  No more flights in or out after the London flight leaves at about 7.00pm.

But I'm happy that the wife and kids are out of here.  I spoke to her a few minutes ago and they are safely in Toronto.

I wish you were with them

Good luck my friend,  I'll be thinking about you and say a good prayer for you.  Stay safe and don't go surfing!

[midnight Target]

I suggest you get your friends together, go out in the street and sing the chorus of Billy Joel's "Siagon Lullabye"


Just trying to keep your spirits up bud. Watch out for flying palm trees.

[AWMac]

Praying for your safety Curval.  Good Luck!!!


Pssst.  Don't forget to look it straight in the eye and say "HaaaaaaaaR"

[medicboy]

curval, best of luck and remember to stay in the doorway, oh wait that is for earth quakes, I guess this Cali boy (soon to be montana boy) doesn't have too many helpful tips other than WYA!  (watch your arse).


Oh ya, do what Awmac said, that should give you a good laugh in a bad situation.

[Bonden]

Good luck Curval - will be thinkin of ya....

Bon
