Oh geez, you had to bring that up. My X-ray phone will definitely be off this weekend at the Manor Ho for sure. I don't want to happen past his room and accidentally capture a glimpse of, uh, global warming, if you know what I mean.

Check www.crownweather.com/ike.html Scroll down about half way and you'll see all the models. The site is loading slowly today, probably because so many people are keeping an eye on it. I hope you guys stay safe out there!
When it comes to hurricanes in the GoM, if they draw a bull's eye on you at the very beginning you normally have no worries.

My favorite hurricne tracker is www.stormpulse.com. It has some interesting graphics.

Stormpulse is pretty cool. I love how accurate the storm forecasters are though. Check out the most recent image from stormpulse. Predictions now show the storm going somewhere south of Houston... unless it hits Pensacola...

Actually, I think maybe if it hits from Corpus south, we may be ok.

Uhhh, you can probably only call for the wobbling of heads, not the offing of heads, I'm thinking.

Globe, At first glance, I thought that hurricane tracking graphic you posted was a plot of my lines through T1/T2.

I'm good with that. Wobble his head. The King has spoken.

It looks like a plot of your various videos where the black line, as well as many others, represent you Emp...er, I mean KingFish. Unfortunately, the orange line is the track surface!

There's a reason I checked this forum every 2 days.

There is nothing like waking up, having a cup of coffee, squinting to read these small letters on my lap top and then spewing some of it (coffee) down my shirt in an effort to avoid the computer screen.

Thanks for the entertainment.
