Big'un.
My wife and children are supposed to be flying home Saturday around 3:30pm into RDU. I'm guessing that does not happen.

I remember those days, watching a hurricane coming for half a week.

Trying to figure out if I'll have some good windsurfing wind.

Well, you know climate change is making the hurricanes worse, so we have to be ready. Plus, you know...Bush and Katrina.

I have noticed that the wind forecasts for tomorrow are lower now than they were earlier.

Yeah, they're now predicting it will only be a Cat 1 when it hits, instead of cat 3.

QUOTE From a friend who's a professional met: QUOTE Let me be clear about something....Hurricane Irene is perhaps the most over-hyped weather event in news history. These people are running around like the world is going to end in New York City. The thing won't even be a hurricane when it gets up there. You will see the phrase "we dodged a bullet" about 50 times in the news on Monday. Ridiculous.
I've heard Obama is going to start blaming the bad economy on bad weather/earthquakes/and shit, so they gotta hype them.

Heard from conspiracy theorists?
Hurricane was cat 1 at landing, two piers washed away, lots of power out, but otherwise things seem to be fine around my parents' place - Atlantic Beach/ Pine Knoll Shores.
Windy here, some power outages, lots of debris on the roads.
