Chatter Post: Thursday, May 29, 2013
This will be quick! I don't have a laptop that doesn't need to be plugged in and we've been having storms with continued storms expected after 8:00pm. So, here's a quick Chatter Post so that I can shut down the computer again!
ETA: They changed the forecast in the last ten minutes on Weather.com.. More storms aren't expected until 2am now. Huh.
ETA2: And yet there is thunder and lightning right now. Darn unreliable forecasts!
I've always been fascinated with weather, especially since I was able to see the devastation up close after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. I never, ever want to experience a tornado--they scare the crap out of me--but I have a bit of a desire to experience a hurricane from a pretty safe location. When hurricane season comes around and there is one that threatens to make landfall, the Weather Channel is on 24/7. I can't take my eyes off the t.v..
If you could be an eyewitness to a weather phenomenon (e.g. an earthquake, a hurricane/typhoon, a tornado, a tsunami, etc.), what would you want see up close or experience if you could be guaranteed safety? Why? Even if you couldn't be guaranteed safety?
