If anything... it looks like we might catch the west side of whatever storm is left after it enters the 'linas... we could use some rain... I just hope it's not a flooding rain.Kain99 said:Yeah well... Ophelia cannot slide up the bay! She's to BIG! If she does I will be chained at work, saving old folk instead of my kids so there!

What should we consider "ethnic" isn't everyone some sort of ethnicity? When my daughter was born 2 yrs ago I was pushing the German name "Katrina." I almost got it as her middle name.

Keep thinking that a hurricane cannot come up the bay. It has happened before. If I am not mistaking it was Hazel in 1954.Kain99 said:Yeah well... Ophelia cannot slide up the bay! She's to BIG! If she does I will be chained at work, saving old folk instead of my kids so there! Not happening!
This is the kind of thinking that NOLA in trouble.

After a quick search, I found 3 significant storms that came up the bay. (I am sure there have been more). In 1749 (Cat 3-4 est.) The Chesapeake Bay Storm of 1933, (9.8 ft storm surge) and Hurricane Connie in 1955.
Hazel took a more westerly track and was still a CAT 2-3 when it hit Hagerstown, MD.

Excellent point. "Ethnic" has become a politically correct code word for "non-WASP," which I think is ridiculous. One reason I love America is that the average American is very likely to have a varied ancestry, as compared with average citizens in other nations. My ancestry is English, Scottish, French and German, but I've been told that I look Italian or Jewish.Triggerfish said:

Kind of strange isn't it? A lot of people would consider an Italian person ethnic but will think of Spagetti as American as apple pie.

Kain, you are funny?Kain99 said:That Monster is to big to slide up the bay! Have'nt ya ever heard of thermodynamics!
The thermodynamics of the bay and surrounding terrain could induce the flow of the hurricane to include drawing it in, but in this case it is unlikely due to other meteorological conditions influencing our area.Best guess on this on and off again hurricane is it will hit southern North Carolina and immediately go back out to sea south of Cape Hatteras. Impact to SOMD, little to none.

That was that kennedy Sheila Jackson-(Ug)Lee. She's a one-note wonder - all she ever talks about is race (kind of like Qpid).Hessian said:
When she made that statement, I'd have loved it if some smartass would have said, "Okay - more 'black' names. We'll call the next one 'Sheila'."
