skajerk Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 (edited) For some reason, since my recent move to the Houston area, I've become very interested in hurricanes (No. Not the Connecticut variety ). Since the topic of hurricane names came up, here you go (I didn't realize how far in advance they have them named. Through 2013): Atlantic Names: 2008 Arthur (At its strongest point- Tropical Storm) Bertha (cat. 3) Cristobal (TS) Dolly (cat. 2) Edouard (TS) Fay (TS) Gustav (cat. 4) Hanna (cat. 1) Ike (cat. 4) Josephine (TS) Kyle Laura Marco Nana Omar Paloma Rene Sally Teddy Vicky Wilfred 2009 Ana Bill Claudette Danny Erika Fred Grace Henri Ida Joaquin Kate Larry Mindy Nicholas Odette Peter Rose Sam Teresa Victor Wanda Edited September 9, 2008 by skajerk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5drumsweeps Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 well I guess we should all be used to Hurricanes this summer... after all, DCA had a hurricane of its own tearing things up from show to show...(not to make light of a dangerous hurricane bearing down on Houston - it would be interesting to see how the New Orleans infrastructure holds out if it gets hit again this week which is definitely a possibility) I agree, thats why folks within my region label this "Hurricane Season", be prepared or suffer the worse. During DCA competition in Rochester 3 quarters of my Corps (GCS) had to drive back to Houston just in case Gustav made landfall in order to prepare their familes/pets, etc.. I flew roundtrip from New Orleans to Rochester then come Sunday morning Louis Armstrong International Airport in New Orleans was shut down in preperations for Gustav so I had to re-direct my flight which I did to Orlando. If New Orleans were to experience another Cat 3 + storm the City just may be wiped out as the Army Corps of Engineers has not built an adequate levee system from the start which is why New Orleans flooded in the first place NOT because of Hurricane Katrina, and still the Army Corps have yet to build anything close to protection for the region (1 of the many perks of living in New Orleans) All in all, I spent a few days with my younger sister in Orlando park hopping Disney World parks and checking out some really good jam bands throughout the park, but when my plane landed in New Orleans last Friday you could see the impact Gustav had on the region even though the hurricane made landfall more Westward to Baton Rouge/Lafayette. There was debris everywhere, a lot of homes with no power (still today a lot of people odn't have power), and the great smell of decomposition and aged refrigerator items. Its fun sometimes to crack jokes but to go through it then have to come back and deal with the aftermath is NOT funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuh Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) I have a hard time getting serious about Hurricane Dove, I think the people who pick these names left the covers off their markers a little too long. I can see the headlines in 2009 "Hurricane Odette Slams into Florida, Peters out at Sea Edited September 12, 2008 by stuh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Once a Knight....... Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Seriously though guys, Ike weren't no joke!!!!! I know, you hear it was a CAT 2 hurricane and think no big deal. But this guy showed up and whipped up on us but good. Most members of the corps have checked in and we are all ok. Most still without power. But we are from Texas, we will be fine. PS- How bad can a hurricane named Kyle really be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
