Re: hurricane Earl/ reply to Dee's post

[Guest guest]

Thank you for this one, Dee. I do not think that anyone can be too careful nor too cautious about any Hurricane,and this gem ("My name is Earl") has another following it.Already, there are rip-tides all along the SE coast, and many swimmers have had to be rescued. I think they shouldclose the beaches until after these two threats have passed.I have a cousin in North Carolina; she feels as you and I do.Love to you, Dee, with hope for the safety of all in the path ofthis menace,nTo: MSersLife Sent: Tue, August 31, 2010 10:32:39 PMSubject: hurricane Earl

I don't know how many of us live on the east coast but I sincerely hope if anyone does that they are prepared for Earl if he should hit.

Some people on other message boards are poo-poohing Earl's danger and claim the media is overreacting, but as one who went thru Katrina, I don't think any amount of alarm talk by the media should be ignored

Yes, the path could change and go further east. It could also change and drift further west. Katrina was originally forcast to hit the Florida panhandle then wander off east and weaken. She didn't.

So please, keep an eye on the weather and don't take any chances. My friends heeded the warnings, evacuated and survived. Some of their neighbors did not.
