hmm ~ a doubter ~ you know even the meekest and mildest of hurricanes can decide to stop and rain on you for weeks ~ and there really is a limit to how much water a given piece of ground can handle.

None of them are kittens!

Sure I'm a doubter. The weather service can't get the local weather right 2 days in advance and I'm supposed to get myself worked up over a storm not expected to hit for 3 days and even then it has 5 different track possibilities and isn't even well formed.

Not saying it cannot become a problem it's just that after crying wolf at the slightest tropical depression one gets weary. You do realize that before last year the weather service never named tropical storms but decided to do so in order to increase the fear factor and garner more followers.

It's all about them wanting to be noticed so to do so they become one of the “Hey look at me” crowd.
