PSA for the East Coast
Irene looks bad, if you need to get out, get out.
But chiefly turn in to your LOCAL nooz sources. Oh and since it looks like it will affect areas rarely affected...NYC comes to mind...if you have not done so...stock up.

3. What are the odds that any East Coaster who is on DU isn't
Edited on Thu Aug-25-11 02:34 PM by MineralMan
already following the local news on this storm? I'd think everyone on DU is already keeping an eye on the news. :shrug:

7. Some people just can't
do anything until they are prompted by the self anointed. I might be wrong.

15. I hope they are too
Riding this while pregnant is not a good idea.

She's still working on that time machine. Be ready any day now.

That's what she said.

Watch or listen to Joe Bastardi (sp?) as he has been calling the last hundred named hurricane paths the best.
He is NOT a member of the Cult of AlGore.

Wow, nadin--whatever the **** would I have done without your prognostication!
Or maybe you just telepathically communicated the need for me to pick up water, batteries, instant coffee, and 15 gallons of gas before I read this thread!
Brilliant!!!

33. I post they will unrec
they are children, go ahead unrec to your heart's content...
It really matters little if I posted about the color of the sky or cute kittens, they will unrec, that's what they do.
Though I am a liberal user or the alert button... for those who do post personal attacks.
I stopped engaging them a while back... it can't be done.

36. It's not about you.
It's the content, or lack of content. I've told you that before. I rec your threads when they deserve it. It's easier for you to demonize and attack, rather than admit that you mostly post non-great stuff.
PB and MM are fed up with her crap.
Both are hammering her pretty good.
She doesn't like it one bit. :rotf:

For those that need the REAL information. I added some windtags to give everyone an idea of what that would look like out from the center. This is what the NHC predicts for landfall. About 1100 am on Saturday.

A friend just returned from the Outer Banks. Looks like she's going to miss the fun.

Has "meteorologist" been added to know-it-all nadin's resume?

Yeah, I'm thinking the outer banks is going to get its butt kicked yet again.

Nope--she's too ugly. Give those Weather Channel bimbos credit--they may only have three functional brain cells between them, but...

She needs to be out in the rain.....you know, wet T-shirt.... :naughty:

Nadine has been through how many hurricanes? That's a bit like a SGT that tried to tell me what to do when I had more time in a latrine in the field than he had in the field.

Which reminds me. Two of my favorite TV babes, the fabulous Megyn Kelly, and the cutest of all the sidelines reporterette bimbos, Suzy Kolber, have been absolutely butchered by horrendous new hairdos.
Until now, I would never have believed that a megababe could approach Helen Thomas territory simply by making a tragic hair styling decision, but they have proven me wrong.
Now I just hope Erin Andrews doesn't show up with a mohawk.

See, the problem is, I didn't even know who Stephanie Abrams was until a year ago, until I found myself after a long night shift at the nuke plant in the almost-frozen Iowa tundra. Cedar Rapids, although a quite large town by the standards to which I am accustomed (Rochester being about 30K, CR being somewhat over 100K, and several cities like Iowa City around it) hasn't much of a "morning life", being the good Christian people they are.
By that I mean only two or three bars are open at 7 am, and those aren't exactly high-scale establishments, but as coach says, excrescence happens, and one does the best with which one is given.
Anyway, I'm watching the morning weather whilst quaffing my morning (post night-shift) breakfast of eggs and beer, when this woman appears on my screen talking up the weather. Ho-hum, says I.
Or HO HO HO HO!!! says I, when she turns to the side.
Anyway, at the risk of being bitch-slapped by the fairer sex at my obvious lack of chivalry (and let's face it, I really have none, especially at 7:30 in the morning when working on my second mini-pitcher) I was impressed.
Had I seen nadin turning to the side, I might have projectile vomited my second mini-pitcher. Had she spoken in my presence, I'm sure I would have.

If she does, I swear that I will wake up every night, every hour on the hour, to bitchslap you--for a ****ing month. :tongue:

Will do. We have everything nearly ready. Just a little housekeeping to take care of today and tomorrow morning. But if they say go we are heading west.

94. You never heard of those?
Disaster manager?
God too funny.
Obviously you are alerting on anyone who dares question your experience.
But thanks for the laughs anyway.
She who laughs, lasts.

96. Here is another thing you can get at your local camping store that is great... in a disaster, a cold night, a camping event...
metalized emergency blankets...
Genius! Pure genius!
I bet she 1-2-3-4-5 as the combination on her luggage too.

Has "meteorologist" been added to know-it-all nadin's resume?
It is now. Her list of expertise is now two pages filled of one-line descriptions. Wait 'til I had the running commentary.

As if nadin's lousy advice wasn't bad enough, MSNBC has the mayor of Chocolate City on to do an interview.

Is that "THE" Ray Nagan? The Ray Nagan, who along with a few of his cops, were the only ones that took Bush's advice and left New Orleans before hurricane Katrina hit?

If I followed her tips I would get blown halfway to Tennessee.
