Besides losing my power for a few hours, it was nice and breezy in Port Charlotte...

Wilma regains Cat.3 status as it speeds away, winds 120mph, moving at 37mph. It is epected to stay over water, but still help bring rain to the NorthEast. The it will turn extratropical, and we can say goodbye.

Wilma strengthens more as it races off, now with winds of 125mph, racing Northeast at 38mph. And acording to satelitte, it is slowly becoming Extratropical.

Seriously. I can't wait to see how much snow we're going to get this winter up here in the northeast. :doubt: :sigh:

While you're giving it away, I'll take 6 inches at least three times this winter.  Preferably all between November and early January.

For me, there is nothing darker, nothing bleaker, nothing more conducive to wrist-slitting than a New England winter. Ice, ice, and more ice. Everything looks like the end of a nuclear war. Dig stuff out of the ice, oh hey, guess what: Gotta do it again the next morning. And then later comes the slush. Puddle after puddle of brown, muddy, slushy water with soggy pieces of paper floating in it. My blood circulation dies as soon as it drops to 50 degrees, and my hands are purple from November until late May. I just lie comatose next to the window in the evening and set my Gregorian chants on repeat while the sun sets at frigging FOUR IN THE AFTERNOON.

And shes gone, Wilma is turning Exratropical over the north atlantic, however attention turns to the Carribean again as a TD could form over the next day or so.

I love exactly that kind of weather. :D It's not like that very often here though. :(

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I have 27 relatives living near Fort Lauderdale, and I just talked to them all.  Seems they all won't have power for 4 weeks, are stuck eating Chinese every freakin' night, and none of their houses escaped damage.  It's not that serious, and they are all alright :), although I can't imagine what the rest of the area must be like :(.  Hopefully things have some degree of normality by the time I get there after Christmas.
