Hurricane Wilma is undergoing Rapid intensfication, and looks to reach Major hurricane status in the next few hours.

Then it will head towards Florida possibly as a Major hurricane. With very favorable conditions, it is likely the Wilma will countinue to strengthen. Allthough sheer is in the forecast later, and that should eventully weaken Wilma.

I laughed at the title, and hurrah another hurricane heading for Florida!

[Dark RevenantX]

God ****!

When will it end?

OH LORD, PLEASE STOP SHOOTING THESE WHIRLY SPINNY THINGS OF DOOM AT US!

[Taristin]

Hmm. The lord is doing it? Why, oh why, would the lord be constantly pummelling the south, (aka Bible Belt) with such a punishment?

You think Florida is part of "the south"?

[Mefustae]

It's part of the North now? Wow, no wonder I failed Geography...

It's south of the Mason-Dixon line, and was the third state to defect from the Union.

If there's still a "southerner" living in the state of Florida, I'd be very much suprised.  Geographically Southern, yes, but culturally it's nothing close.

More than likely, after it hits Florida, it be combine with a northern storm and become a Horrific Nor'Easter,and cause all kinds of problems for the North.

Then it'll decide to ignore the North as it is relatively unoffensive. Sip a cup of Tea with John Forbes Kerry, and then turn its wrathful eye upon Alabama.

It's now a cat 5 hurricane and it could hit the Southeast part of the US.


I wonder if it will hit N.O.

Wilma reaches impossible strength, becomes the most powerful hurricane in Atlantic history with a pressure of 882millabars.!!:eek2:

[achtung]

This is becoming so common it's starting to just mix into everyrday life.

[ZylonBane]

This is getting to be like time warp episodes on Star Trek.

The eye has contracted overnight to an incredible 2-4 miles wide, just for reference Kat's eye was 28 miles wide and Rita's was 25 miles.

So, Wilma's core is like a 8 milewide F-3 tornado.

Jeez!  Hopefully it will leak a lot of power before it hits Florida.

Hehe.... floate.

Wait.

I've done that one, haven't I?

Don't count on that too much. It probably will weaken somewhat when it hits the Yucetan, but it goes back over warm water after that. It probably will get it's strength back.


I do think it would be ironic if it turned an smacked New Orleans.
