Preemptive Weather Warning

Post by Jordicus » Sun Aug 15, 2004 1:40 am

Figure I'll do it now ahead of schedule.

The remnants of Hurricane Charley, soon to be Tropical Storm Charley, will be hitting Northern & Central New Jersey at sometime between 7:00 am to 9:00 am EST (11:00 am - 1:00 pm GMT)

Be prepared for potential power & cable disruptions and Avlis downtime. Hopefully it won't happen or be very long or bad.

Keep your fingers crossed!

No worries about Avlis - you just stay safe and dry, you hear?

I hope you all take care and stay safe over there in that New World of yours.

We keep bitching about the weather here in the UK, but we don't get anything like that over here, thank the Lord.

Seriously though,

It's good to live in Sweden.
NO hurricanes, storms, volcano erupts( :lol: ) and the like.
Not even tornados ;)

But I hope it wont happen.
I once saw on TV what struck in Florida once.. *shivers*

it would be nice to have some kind of interesting weather though. clouds and intermitant sunny patches can only keep you entertained for so long. wheres the sheet lightening and fun stuff?
actually there was a big water spout a few months ago, odd for the UK

Seems NJ was spared as the storm had lost most of it's intensity before passing by.. :)

That is Good News indeed.

Florida is a wreck right now, almost hit me ( I live near tampa ) but I was lucky that it moved a little south, but I am sad for all the people stranded, who are now heading to where I live for houses and hotels..

No decent beer either i hear ;-P

Well, I hope the storm decides to stop at the coast and starts to play Avlis too - much better use for all that energy.

No hurricanes/volcanoes/earthquakes, we still get the edge of hurricanes and tropical storms, only during summer though so its nice then
<Fuzz> thankfully, no one quotes me
<GairusWHO> I think so... but don't quote me on that.

Yeah, shame we never get any rain either though..............

Glad to hear all are safe from this community, and sorry for those that have been affected.
