Huricane #1

[DeeDee]

Well were fixin to get our first hurricane of the season. Hopefully I can get some good cloud pictures. (if I dont wuss out)

[mmeyer]

Be careful Dee Dee. No pictures are worth losing a life over. That said, I can't wait to see whatever you can get!

[Steve Foss]

Could be WAY cool. What MM said!

Oh, and see if you can get a cat in the picture.

[DeeDee]

Oh, and see if you can get a cat in the picture.

I'll toss mine out and see if I can get a shot before he RUNS back inside. He's a bigger wuss then I am!

[DeeDee]

Well sad news, it slowed down and turned. I will still get some pretty decent storms but nothing spectacular. Altho, it is good news for my house, atleast I wont have to rebuild again.

[Deitz Dittrich]

Glad you were not hit DD...picts would have been great, but I hate clean up picts!

[DeeDee]

Thanks Dietz,

I agree with the clean up pic's. I've had to many of those in 2004. I like the wind, cloud and lightning pictures.

[Catmendo]

Oh well DeeDee, there's always next time! Besides it's a long time between now and the end of October!

[Dbl]

Glad it missed you! How much rain did you end up with?

[DeeDee]

it hasnt stopped raining yet, so far not bad, I think they said we're to get around 6-8". Luckily we dont live in a flood zone so I'm not worried about that. Its supposed to rain until next Thursday

[Dbl]

Please send it our way, we need it! Stay dry DeeDee.

[DeeDee]

I'm going to try. Hey remember a couple weeks ago I asked you to send me some rain? Well thank you, but I think you got carried away, so you can have it back!

[UdeLakeTom]

A little patience DBL....Once it moves towards the Ol'Miss, it will start heading up the valley and hit here.

[DeeDee]

Thats true, its gonna go back in the ocean tun into a cat.1 make a u-turn and head north. So you may get some of this after all. The winds are starting to pick up and its cooled off quite a bit.

[UdeLakeTom]

Down to the 80's??

[DeeDee]

yep, 85 as a matter of fact

[DeeDee]

As most people know tropical storms and hurricanes are very DANGEROUS. I bet you guys even know that right? Well some people are just to...well I'll let you see for your self. He is in critical condition...

[Steve Foss]

Cool that you got some, DeeDee. They are sweet pics. I really like the pattern the clouds and sun make in the first one.

[DeeDee]

I'd like to take credit but they are not mine. Maybe at 2 am I will get some

[mmeyer]

Those are really telling the story aren't they. They're great, especially the clouds.

[Gary Crichton]

Why are all the people smiling.....

[MN Shutterbug]

Did I just see a meal of catfish and hush puppies go by?
