Irma from space

That would make a great desktop ...

hope you can get one at night with all of the lights in the big cities and the dark places in the rural areas.

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico - Hurricane Irma howled past Puerto Rico after thrashing several smaller Caribbean islands with roof-ripping winds, drenching rains and pounding surf on a collision course with Florida.

Nooo not again.

Edit: Do try to keep up, there are already numerous references to Irma on this thread, we don't need another. TIA

Catch 22 Sky, the honeymoon was booked over eight months ago so you pays your money and takes your chance although holiday insurance will undoubtedly cover such events.

Reminds me of 2008 when Hurrican Ike hit Texas just a few weeks prior to the SubSim Meet.

Oh brother!!!

Meteo France says that Irma is the most energetic and intensive Hurricane that was ever monitored in the history of weather recordings. Never before has a Hurricane rotated with speeds of cat 5 for 33 hours. And that was 26 hours ago - yesterday. And Irma brings her family with her. Say Hello to José and Katia.

Just came from a conversation with Neal two minutes ago and he is safe and soldiering on

I hope Neal and all others in the region affected will get by without problems

Mr Quatro · 09-07-17, 02:03 PM

Irma on the way to Florida and Jose right behind her and I think another one is forming already, plus the one in the Gulf of Mexico

I am cat sitting for some very unwise friends of mine. They are flying down to Disney World on Friday to spend the week at the park.

They don't seem to be worried, but I think their trip is ill timed. She told me that they may have to spend a day or two in the hotel but the rest of the week should be OK.

Yikes!

I had hoped that, too.

Hurricane Irma has claimed at least 10 lives and caused "unprecedented carnage" in the Caribbean - and storm Jose is gathering pace as it is upgraded to a category three hurricane.
