Hurricane Wilma Discussion

Well, since this one just became a category 5 after it was just a
tropical storm yesterday, I'm kinda thinking the world is ending...Oh
well. Jack this thread up there when it becomes necessary Walrus.
:smileyindifferent:

Good luck people, hopefully this is the last one this year.

It's not the end of the world, but all of our prayers go out to them. SMILEY

We were talking about this in our Chem class. The thing is the pacific ocean current thing or whatever it is in the movie The Day After Tomorrow, the temp has gone up 2 degrees. Now thats not a huge deal some may think, yet that 2 degrees will shift more storms into hurricanes, and move them closer into the US.

Crazy stuff is happening thats for sure.

**Fickey**

The bad thing about this one is that it's going to where my sister lives....(I told them not to go down there around this time of year SMILEY

) They plan on moving out of the state for a while....(Im glad I live in Ohio...the most we get is a few snow storms and a tornado)

I'm from the UK so we don't really experience anything quite like this, but our thoughts and best wishes are with all that do - sincerely hoping this one doesn't develop as the earlier storms did SMILEY

Sadly the likelyhood of severe and extreme weather is increasing all the time, films like 'The Day After Tomorrow' speed that change up, but its frightening to think it may not ultimately turn out to be just fiction....

I leave in Florida so we are getting stocked up on booze.

well this is the first i heard of this one, but for those who want to read about it. http://www.cnn.com/2005/WEATHER/10/19/wilma/index.html

end times may be near?

We just had the tail end of Typhoon Number 20. Went over the prefecture I live in, but wasn't much more than heavy rain this time. Yeah I know. Japan is boring and numbers the things instead of naming them. I had to explain the naming system of hurricanes to my other half and how they retired names if people died and rotated the lists every seven years or so. Wonder if that's changed? I haven't been keeping track lately.

Meh. I just hope that we've all seen the last of these types of storms for the year.

**Ic3b3rg**

not sure, but from that article it says they do not use the letters of the alphabit of X Y and Z. so many possibilites of storm names would be nice to see from those letters. Maybe xenomorph or Zippy SMILEY

**Aquatium.**

Yeah, stay safe anyone out there..

Also the film "Day After Tomorrow", even though its "fiction" its bassed around facts of what can happen, and we are seeing more extreme natural disaters happening every day.....

I know a lot of people hated that movie, but it's still one of my favorites. Don't know why, but I just love the way they ended it. In other news, we had a grade weak 5 earthquake today. That's a 5 on the Japanese scale that only goes up to strong 7, so this wasn't a "little" quake. Funny thing is it was just over a year after the last strong quake that did a lot of damage in Niigata (IIRC) which they are still sorting out today. I guess everywhere in the world has it's own disasters on a regular basis. We don't hear of them all though due to whatever reasons.
