WILMAAAAAAAAAA!
Sorry. Couldn't resist.
So, the storm jumped from a Cat 2 to a Category 5 storm overnight. Yay.
It also looks like it's going to skim right between Cuba and the Yucatan Peninsula, thereby avoiding Cuba's mountainous terrain, which would weaken the storm significantly. Double yay.
So far, the "cone of uncertainty" is very large. Fnar. S'gonna hit Florida; that much is pretty much guaranteed. Triple yay.
Looks like it'll weaken before hitting FL, at least. *crosses fingers*
And if all of this wasn't bad enough, it was delivered this morning by an annoying meteorologist, who was the stand-in for the meteorologist we prefer watching in the morning (he's on vacation). This woman has way too much difficulty with the cue-cards, man. Such a ditz.
Par example:
"You'll see here between... [pause] ...Cuba and the Yucatan, right here. Here we have warmer... [pause] ...water. And that warmer water will provide... [pause] ...fuel that will feed the hurricane."
She also focuses on Orlando weather and never what's going on on the coast. :P
...And, yes, I do have a preferred meteorologist.
I'll probably go out today and fill up the car. It's pretty empty. We're pretty good with supplies, though picking up another carton or two of water can't hurt. And I might even swing by our local British import shop, because![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mscongeniality shared some of her PG Tips with me, and it's become my crack. Granted, some people (like my mom) would argue that I have "too much tea." I, however, disagree. No matter how much tea I have, it's always just enough. XD
Pfah. Too much tea. I've never heard of anything so ridiculous.
