Wild Weather

I watched a 20/20 special about the end of the world and this was listed at, like, 3rd most likely. Biological warfare and Nuclear warfare were the only things listed more likely, I think.

Great. So its either the Super Volcano or the fact that one of our missile bases for the US Air Force is like 10minutes from my house in bad traffic thats going to take me out.. Wonderful.. I don't think your safe on that one either Drumthumper, we have silos up there too, lol.

Great Falls MT is pretty much home to Malmstrom AFB, which is a bit of a misnomer since the runway out at the base got decommissioned in 1996.

So yeah, if Dubya decides to blow the Judgment Trump, I've got a front row seat to that as well.

Dubya is a slang term for President Bush.

Well that went off topic end of the world lol.

Small update we are now in the eye of the storm where I live currently has electricity. The garden is a complete mess with branches every where. Also ships have escaped except the one that is up the beach. Parts of the country side including Newcastle are flooded completely. Many roads and railway lines are cut. It is pretty crazy the bark has been stripped off some trees by the weather. People are still missing presumed dead.

What is going on where you are is crazy. Good luck and stay safe man.

one of my friends in newcastle rang me last night, he had to evacuate his house because he was chest high in water.

and my road is like a warzone too, branches everywhere. the rain seems to have lessened a bit this morning, but as simon said, it's the eye of the storm, so it looks like the next few days will be mad.

it also sucks because it's the long weekend, so people were all hoping to go away on holiday. one family of 4 were on their way up the coast for their holiday, but they got swept away into a river. it's so sad.

My God. . I hope Bucko is Okay! Anyone know how to get ahold of him?

[Elenril]

I'm sure he's okay, because everyone had time to get out of their homes. Of course, his house and belongings are a completely different matter. He's bound to be able to get hold of the internet some way or other, and if he sees this thread he'll let us know that he's okay.
