Nothing, but very dark here in Alexandria.

I live on the 8th floor of a 16 sory condominium. What am I supposed to do?

My brother and SIL live in Centreville, near Dulles. I had called them a little while ago and didn't get an answer. Strange, I thought. Hope they are okay.

We had students on busses going home...had to find shelter where they could...not a good scenario at all. Very scary. We had some come to our school to shelter while it passed although they don't go to our school. Thankfully, all our busses have radios and were warned immediately.

Actually, Field Marshall Clinton signed the Kyoto Treaty. Heir Field Marshall Clinton never sent it to the US Senate because it would have been DOA. Heir Clinton said, "We will abide by the terms of the Kyoto agreement."

Sooo.....

what you might have said was . . .

"Si Presidente de bush de Eeuu no había abrogado el Kyoto Agreeement (sólo después que la aprobación del Senado es un tratado), esto nunca habría sucedido."

roughly translated . . . (trying to get the hispanic vote here)

If President Bush had not abrogated the Kyoto Agreeement (only after Senate approval is it a treaty), this would never have happened.

Looks a bit ominous on radar south of D.C. The Dahlgren tornado could hang together and hit east of Fairfax, maybe closer to the beltway.

Needless to say the high school football games have been canceled. My son's team is in lock-down in the gym.
