[ot] Hurricane Dennis
Good luck to everyone around the Gulf of Mexico, that Hurricane Dennis
stays out of your way! (last I heard it was up to category 4, and deemed a "significant threat") According to The Weather Channel, Dennis is forecast to move across Cuba and into the Gulf Saturday. The forecast track has it hitting the northeast Gulf coast (somewhere from New Orleans to Pensacola, Florida), but western Florida is not out of the question. They've been evacuating the Florida Keys, and will be closing the airport there later today. Of course, as we all saw last year, hurricanes have minds of their own... who knows if it'll actually go where forecast or not. So stay safe! Get a loan and put gas in your vehicles! Get out of there if they tell you to do so!!! Jeanne Hedge, as directed by Natasha ============ http://www.jhedge.com |

Dennis emailed me the other day, he's quite chuffed that they named a
hurricane after him. I'm hoping that it turns out to be a nice, non-destructive hurricane. One deserving of the name Dennis. Purrs for everyone around the Gulf. -- Britta "There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." -- Unknown Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album Jeanne Hedge wrote: Good luck to everyone around the Gulf of Mexico, that Hurricane Dennis stays out of your way!

Purrs and purr-ayers for the safety of everyone, human and animal alike, in
the path of the hurricane. May the hurricane weaken so much that it leaves minimal injury/damage in its wake. Donna, Captain, and Stanley |

As of 5:00 pm Saturday Dennis arrived, so far he has been gentlemanly. We
have been having bands of gusting winds and some rain. But, we are 70 miles inland from the Gulf Coast and 'cane is many miles out into the Gulf. All precautions have been taken, all items that could fly around, such as rubbish barrels, flower pots, lawn chairs are in the garage. We just got a big gust which blew some things off the fridg, the cats headed for the closet! I know one thing that will not happen this year that happened last year. No matter how dearly I love my friends and neighbors I will not help them fix their hurricane damaged roofs!! /s/ Charleen Hopefully all who are impacted by this storm will be okay.

Charleen Mr. Pumpkin Aggie Marble Victor Velcro Charleen, where are you located again? Sounds like Mobile is going to get it bad. They are talking a possible Cat 4 now. I'm in St.Cloud, Florida which is Central Florida, 22 miles from Disney. At this time, 7:00 pm, the rain is coming down in torrents, way beyond the ability of the gutters to take care of it. I had not moved to the garage two of my large plants in terra cotta pots because they were so large and heavy. I just checked on them. One has been blown over and is broken. The wind is blowing the rain as well as the trees and bushes around. If it is like this here I am fearful for the people on the coast and when it hits the Panhandle and La. Prayers and purrs going out to them. Charleen Mr. Pumpkin, Aggie Marble, Victor Velcro who are all hiding in the closet! |
