there's hurricane charlie going to florida :P so no fun at all

good thing i dont live in florida lol but i think bonnie is gunna hit the panhandle (right side of the state of texas lol)

Hehe, its starting to storm here in Delaware...on the east coast of the U.S. too :P Hurricane Charlie is headed for me lol :D hahahaha

Where do they come up with those storm names? Charlie?! That doesn't sound very storm-like...

Because if they used numbers to track them all it'd be like "Watch out for huricane 8745234453434252497" hahahaha :D

OK, you got me there.

Now back to the weather...

I'm in Florida. One tropical storm hit the Florida panhandle today, and another one is expected to hit the west coast of Florida tomorrow. School has been cancelled in our area for tomorrow!

ack i always forget Americans get much cooler weather than us...so a little British storm is nothing :lol: anyway it appears to have chilled out now, still the odd rumble of thunder but i can actually see more than 1 foot infront of me now, shame that was fun...if a little scary!

I was outside when the storm started here :( LOADS of rain came down in just a few minutes so we all got soaked whenever a car came by... there wasn't all that much lightning and such, just buckets of rain.

Ugh, that looks like an icky storm :|

your cam shows an awsome shot thought ! from the lightening ;) I tried in the summer of 2003 to make a photo of the lightening in Hungary when i was on a holiday. There it was so different then a thunderstorm here in holland, and when the lightening came you didn't need any other lights haha. No luck though, i was always too late :P

Love,
Mirna

We just got hit by Bonnie this morning, and Charlie is coming tomorrow :confused: Bonnie wasn't too bad, and it went right over us, but Charlie's winds are up to 90 mph !! :eek:

You live in Florida Chris? I live in Delaware, Charlie is supposed to come up here after it hits Fla. :P They could've at least given it a somewhat frightening name lol....Ooo Charlie's gonna get us :P hahaha

I've been trying to take pics of lightning for ages, and I always fail!
I hope that storm stays on your end of the North Sea, Starlet ;)

I tried to take a photo of lightning the last time there was a storm here, unfortunately my window isn't really great for that... I just put the digital camera in movie mode hoping maybe I'd catch it ;) It was a big storm too, for like 1 hour+ it rained heavy and lightning almost nonstop. That camp pic is so neat looking though!

http://egokill.org/storm.jpg > poictures of after that storm .. i think its the right storm.. Thats all hail by the way.

storms arent fun. Well, sometimes, they are. But not when theres that much hail. and when they cause damage to your room.

Hurricane Charlie is supposed to hit us tomorrow :o!! I don't have school, so I don't care about a hurricane :p

It rained 66mils of rain in 2 hours...im not sure what that means exactly but i know its a lot because it was all over the news and said that thats the average rainfall for 3 MONTHS! :lol:
It really was awesome, we're not used to such extreme weather over here!

I also get to miss school because of hurricane Charley. Hurrah! I hopefully won't have to evacuate though...

I live in North Carolina, so everybody was worried that Hurricane Alex would be another Fran or Floyd. It wasn't. Just a bunch of rain.

Now they're saying Charley (Charlie?) is a strong category two hurricane and it'll be coming up the eastern seaboard in a couple of days. Argh. Any time after next Wednesday (first day of school) would be nice, thanks. :)

There was a tornado warning earlier. Strange weather.

I don't think we got anything yesterday/today, but the other night we got a cool thunderstorm here in New York :P plenty of cool thunder and lightning and lots of rain, and apparently it lasted quite a while (like an hour and a half, maybe a little longer- although I went to bed about 45 minutes into it :P), and my town got some decent rain this morning, but not a storm, and going into the next town over apparently everything was completely dry...

Speaking of storms and such, I believe parts of Florida are being evacuated (sorry, the only news I could get access to was on the radio, and it wasn't very clear); and a storm that passed right through SO Cali caused me to sit without electricity for about 5 hours. We had a heatwave and a lightning storm all at the same time (seriously). Another storm is expected again later tonight, and anytime this week. It may not rain in Cali very much, but when it does :mad:

I just put the digital camera in movie mode hoping maybe I'd catch it ;)
I've done that, and I got a pretty cool image from it, too :D

Apparently there is/was a tornado warning here. When do we ever get tornados in NY?

ahh that picture was scary.. lightening frightens me a lot :sad:

hope all's okay there.. there are never very bad [or even mildly bad :lol:] storms here.. so i've never experienced something like that but i can imagine it's scary :hehe:

When do we ever get tornados in NY?
1995? :P

I think that was when we had a tornado near me. plus a couple years ago we had a really bad thunderstorm, and I'd swear it looked like it was a tornado, although it was never labelled as such... we went driving around and there were loads of trees that were broken off and stuff, but like twisted around, seemed like something a tornado would do.

Wow, awesome photo!

Yeah, I've been hearing about this. I listen to ClassicFM (the awesomest radio station in the world) 24/7 and they're stationed in England, so I'm always up-to-date on everything that's happening over there. Lots of rain...and flooding...

I live in PA and it has been raining on and off like nobody's business. It's crazy...

Hmm... Mother nature sounds angry this week.

LOL my mom and I are jumping around all excited about the hurricane. There's a bunch of people from the coast who have come to where we are because they were asked to evacuate. :p My mom and I are like "OMG THIS IS CHAOS ROFLBBQ" :p We're losers.

1995? :P

Really? Where was I? :P

my guess would be your side of the river :P
