looks like a whooper, said to be strengthening.

1. It's moving so slowly,

getting stronger and stronger.

I saw the tracking prediction, and it looks like it's going to turn due north and, if it does, and stays on course, it's headed straight for Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. Hard to believe it'll hold up that long, though......................

4. It's suprising how many do...

As for Bill, the predicted track is a pretty good match for the 1927 Nova Scotia hurricane.

2. I thought this was about the health care bill.

Is there a catastophe rating for bills in Congress?

7. I thought it was about the Bloom County character

3. Happy Birthday, Bill!

5. That steering cold-front better arrive as scheduled or it could get ugly

on the mid/upper east coast.

Even on its current projected path, they are going to get battered with huge waves and beach erosion.

Godspeed to all in Bill's path.

10. They named it Bill, hoping

11. And its five day track is aimed directly at my house. Wheeee!

Hurricane Juan: The Sequel, looking like.

12. Wow, it's Bill the Cat .... 4!

You, know, I hear that those things can be a bit dangerous, perhaps do some damage. Perhaps the U.S. should undertake some precautions in at-risk places. Like, oh I don't know, maybe New Orleans or somewhere.
