Cone of Doom

Source: WikipediaI don't want to write much tonight. Just about this . . . it's Cone of Doom time again. That super-fun time again to be a Floridian (or any other citizen of a state prone to hurricanes).

Dean, Dean the storm machine is heading toward the Lesser Antilles now. That's gotta suck for those guys. Might even make a fella or a gal think about moving to another locale. This storm is predicted, last I heard, to become a category 4. The Cone of Doom indicates that the storm will probably stay away from Florida, though. So, I'm relieved, but then all those poor folks in Mexico might be creamed.

When will we finally be able to control the weather? When will the Weather Channel start using my phrase "Cone of Doom" instead of Cone of whatever they call it now. You know what I'm talking about, right? That cone of uncertainty in the forecast track for a hurricane or tropical storm.

OK. Peace out peeps.
