The Hurricane Risk for New Orleans



"OK, this is tool that I have a range rod," explains Suyhayda. "It will show us how high the water would be if we were hit with a Category Five Hurricane."

Which would mean what?

"Twenty feet of water above where we are standing now," says Suyhayda.

Alright, Florida, unless Ivan takes a sharp turn to the east, it looks like you'll get by with just a grazing wound...but if you can spare it, keep your eye on that little upstart over by the Virgin Islands, T.S. Jeanne.

Safest place is The Cellar. Hurricanes never go after The Cellar. Hear that Jeanne? Hurricanes never go for The Cellar. Going after Kitsume is too much fun.

Everyone have a drink for The Big Easy, tonight. At nine feet below sea level, that city is going to need it. What would we do without the French Quarter?

Going after Kitsume is too much fun.

First it was lightning, now hurricanes. The weather is never going to leave me alone!

I cannot complain a bit, though. So far, Tampa has faired really well through this year -- so far, so good. And we're just a little more than halfway through hurricane season!

Jeanne's long range projection takes it over Daytona Beach, again. That's where our home office is, and all this hurricane preparation really screws up my life...and I work in Eastern Kansas, ferchrissake.

It's that Cellar karma saving your butt.

I've not gotten hit for what I've written here?
Ladies and gentlemen, being an asshole can payoff! Woo!

So, if things are timed *just* right, the home office can get nailed by the hurricane while a twister rips the corrugated tin roof off your office?

Kind of looks like Ivan is sucking in the ISS. Now *that* is a big hurricane!

That's kind of scary. How did you know our office has a corrugated tin roof? (actually, it is standing seam metal, but close enough for most psychic purposes, I'd say).

BTW...I did not, in any way, shape or form mean to indicate that the relatively minor inconvenience caused to me by the current Floridian Hurricane Barrage holds a candle to the death and destruction being endured by those in the middle of these monsters.

I hope that isn't as organized as it looks in the still image.
Time to just laugh at them -- because there's not a thing anyone can do. A cruel joke? Well, better than May 20th in Codell, Kansas, I guess! (hit by a tornado on that date in 1916, 1917, and 1918)
