Winds are 160 mph, Cat 5's start at 155 mph so still a Cat 5 but should weaken soon
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Fox news report from the NHC said 145mph winds making it a Cat 4.
-
Cat 4 now according to Fox.
-
Some people are staying to have hurricane parties :o How stupid are the yanks.
-
this is the superdome:
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Looks perfect for the wind to get underneath and rip apart :o
Hope they are right and it survives with everybody inside.
-
That superdome that they are all packing into does not look like a building that will withstand this kind of violent weather
-
Given that it's going to hit and be devastating, why have they not got the military involved yet??
-
On FOX it says, eye about to make landfall at 7am (12pm our time)
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Huh?
Fox just said 4am New O time.
-
Due to hit land 4am NO time, what's that in UK time? 10am?
-
First rain hitting NO now.
-
According to Fox there is still a hell of a lot of folks still in NO.
Sea level on the coast already 3-4ft higher than normal.
-
It just looked like it was tracking further west than was predicted.
-
Has it changed track? looking at the animations it doesn't seem to be following the predicted track?
-
Is it normal for a storm to get organised this quickly?? It seems to have gone from having no eye to having a huge one in 4 hours????

That's really weird, I can't get it to do that here. I take it that comes up when you click the link to the 7 day forecasts?
Is anyone else out there having this problem?
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Yep, when I click the 7 day forecast link that's what I get. http://nwstatic.co.uk/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif
-
This is what I get (Ignore the colours, they went a bit odd when i saved it as a gif)
-
Is the 7 day forecast working?
Everytime i've tried it my pc tries to download a file??
-
Tried again this morning using one of the office pc's and it worked, so, it must be a problem with my lap top
-
I have McAfee security centre(firewall, spyware, antivirus etc), could that be it?
The really odd thing is i can upload a pic and put it in a post
http://nwstatic.co.uk/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif -
.co.uk
Is it because i'm using AOL??
I know it plays up on other sites sometimes??
-
Ok, cookies, history etc gone, shutdown and re-booted and tried again but got the same thing
-
Odd - can you try deleting all your cookies and seeing if that helps please?
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Ok, will do.
-
What are you trying to upload to it? (ie which file type)
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
They are all .jpg files.

NW Gallery???
Decided i'd share some of my boring photo's with you all, went to the gallery bit, set one up, gave it a name etc but when I try to put something in it, it just says
you do not have permission to use this feature. If you are not logged in, you may do so using the form below if available.
And it logs me out??????
Am I doing something wrong??

One part of me would love to be there to see it's power, but the other part of me is very glad to be sat here watching it on my laptop 1000's of miles away with just a light breeze outside.
