It really just needs to hit a specific Florida golf course.
Mar a Lagoon when?
Mr, Trump, I’m prepared to offer a fair deal for your soon to be lagoon. The sum total of one hundred dollars and fifty cents. Deal?
There’s also a certain governor who could stand to experience god’s wrath.
Two for one. That’s a bargain.
Poor Yucatan Peninsula. Seems to be nature’s speedbag for Atlantic hurricanes. They might have to adjust the rankings going forward. These warm waters are going to feed them like no tomorrow.

Fixed it.
As opposed to the ones which are merely extremely scary?
Well it’s wayyyy earlier in the year than we would normally see one this strong. I think that’s what’s different.
I know. I read the article. I was just making fun of the headline, which implies that there’s a non-terrifying kind of hurricane.
There is - a cat 2 is good drinking weather. :-P
Cat 3 is great kite surfing weather…
You can shoot a cat 1 to death with a handgun
Please do not shoot cats! Meow!
Flew a kite in a cat2 once. Also tried to play Frisbee but we lost the bee
So you just had a fris?
Yes there is.
Well yes. You have hurricanes of different intensity. Some are just a little more than a bad storm.
Category 1 hurricane speed is 74-95 mph according to my search.
I just lived through a relatively short, non-hurricane thunderstorm with winds measured a little above 80 mph.
Here’s where I wrote about what it did at my home alone.

Believe me, it was terrifying.
There’s terrifying (or should I say scared) and then there’s terrifying.
Dude… all I can say is that if two massive trees fall down right outside your house in the middle of a bunch of high wind and lightning and thunder and hail and torrential rain and are anything less than terrified, you are a hell of a lot braver than I am.
I think most people would reserve the word terrifying for extreme conditions.
Like 80±mile-an-hour winds that knock down trees across the neighborhood, take out power for over a day, destroy homes and cars, etc.?
How is that not an extreme condition? Do you think it happens around here once a week? Did you even see the photos? How often are you in such situations?
The most extremely extreme xetreme conditions, if you need.
Lets see if he makes it across Yucatán and “repowers” like Lee did last year.
