Forums Forums National News Hurricane Irma

Wow some damage beng done by this and before that Harvey. Someone's not happy with the way the worlds going and showing us that without one bomb Earth could be wiped out.

This is huge cools. Many millions in deep
trouble. We have some neighbours at Disney
World coming back Saturday instead of Sunday.

Don't think there's any need for sarcasm Rude, think Snowshoes was just making the point that people in Florida are being evacuated because it's going to hit there. I don't see any humour in this situation at all.

There was no sarcasm intended. The same content by another poster would have been taken in the context intended.

Didn't get to see what you posted RUDEBOX.
Can merely conclude.

My reply would have been the same to anyone who posted what you did Rude, and obviously Mark thought it was bad taste as well.

Said on the news tonight that in one place the hotel guests have been told to evacuate, they have gone to the airport, and there are no seats available on any flights out to UK.

Barbuda looks destroyed.

I don't think you guys have any notion
Of what devastation this hurricane is
causing plus there is two more behind it
on the way.

I doubt we do, not having experienced anything like it. I did live through a night from hell in Suffolk 1987, when the wind speed peaked at 110mph. That was horrific, and a lot of damage plus we weren't given any warning, but this is unimaginable.

Earthquake in Mexico now possible tsunami, so many natural disasters going on at the moment, don't think I'll be moaning about the rain here today.Such bad news every time you turn on the news.

Hopefully, it will persuade Trump that there really IS something in this global warming business after all and it is high time his country did something to alleviate it, rather than carrying on pumping more and more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year.

There seems to be a good chance of his bling flagship golf resort Mar a Lago being inundated. It is only a few metres above mean sea level and a storm surge as big as predicted would see it under water.

On the plus side, it has diverted the president's attention from sabre rattling around the Korean Peninsula which may allow things to cool a little there.

It is Cools, and the book of Revelations keeps shouting at me.
We never hear anything about the ships at sea in these events. There are plenty of them around, but I suppose they may change course or something if there is such a forecast.

I think the yachts that sailed from Liverpool are a lot further south than this.

They are preparing the animals in Big Cat Sanctuary in Tampa on Explore.org I hope it misses them as I'm not really sure quite what they can do of any worth against this .

Quite likely Snowy, by the time this video is finished. It's 2 hours long !
