Hanna is going to bring us some welcomed breezes and nothing more in the way of stormy weather. It's kindof cool to look up at the sky and know the clouds I'm seeing are from a tropical storm. I said hello LOL.
But Ike. OMG there's a whole nother story. This monster storm is making a beeline towards Florida, with impacts possible by next Tuesday (I'm sure bands will start coming onshore well ahead of the eye). Of course that's some time away and we're across the state from where the current landfall might be. But part of me knew he was going to nail us. So this weekend will be a Hurricane prep & shop weekend.
Still you have to admire the sheer awesomeness of this photo from space (courtesy NASA):
Hurricane hunters will be flying out tomorrow to get some hard data which will enhance the forecast models.
It's been a wild year and it's not over. More later if Ike decides to vacation in FL.
