    Ugh...honestly IMF, I prefer your smartphone threads. :p

    I can't believe it's that time of year again. I have a hunch we're in for quite the storm season this year.

    i'll be keeping an eye out for it.


    I wonder if any reporters learned their lesson after last year and their horrid predictions, like, maybe every storm isn't the end of days.

    But i doubt it. I do hope it's another slow season like last though.

    and... in before, I'm in Katy, should I evacuate?

    Still in it? Hasn't started yet. Hurricane season starts June 1. Texas is usually in the clear by first week in October although hurricane season officially ends at the end of November.

    Allison wasn't a typical tropical storm. It just stayed over Houston. Talking about a low level tropical storm or depression that will dump some much needed rain.

    I imagine the folks that were without power for weeks after Hurrican Ike didn't have too much fun. Katrina wasn't much fun.

    Why would you say something like this?

    Take it with a grain of salt. Very unlikely that this will develop into a hurricane but track is almost on us.

    Should I be happy that I potentially will have one named after me this year?
