Looks like Fred will be a weak Tropical Storm

[malaise]

[spooky3]

1. I hope you stay safe. Nt

[malaise]

2. Thanks - We'll have rain most of the week

but Fred should be well north of us

[jimfields33]

3. It's so strange that every hurricane has the same pattern

I remember when hurricanes went up the Atlantic. I guess the cycle were in now is all Gulf direction.

[malaise]

5. Well let's hope conditions in the Gulf do nor favor strengthening

Louisiana can't handle another cyclone.

[jimfields33]

7. I do agree. I'm in Florida in the literal middle and really hope Louisiana is spared.

[malaise]

14. Stay safe

[jimfields33]

20. Thank you! You too!!!!!

[Shanti Shanti Shanti]

4. Looks like it will bang up against every piece of land in the Caribbean, that should weaken it

Saharan dust cloud still out there too, knocking the storms down

[malaise]

8. It might stay above Cuba and the Bahamas has no mountains to destroy it

The experts suggest that there are other factors which should keep it weak - we'll see.
They don't get many wrong.

9. Well shit! We are planning in pulling the boats over to the west coast on Monday

For 3 nights. North of Tampa. Looks like we may be spending time in breweries rather than on the water.

[malaise]

15. Enjoy the beer

[GulfCoast66]

23. Thanks. But rather be fishing. And we have a strict no alcohol policy on the boat.

Don’t get me wrong. I drink way too much. But not on a boat. It’s way more dangerous than having a drink or two even if driving. Boats don’t have brakes and if you wreck your boat even if you live through the impact you will be thrown into the water and your problems are just starting!

Stay safe down there.

10. If only another Fred had weak sperm....

[malaise]

11. or pulled out

[progressoid]

12. Time for Biden to get out his shapie and change it's course!

[malaise]

13. What Sharpie? He's going to place Fred in a time machine so that

he can show up for the Alabama rally

(I am not being serious my Alabama friends).

[Deuxcents]

16. I'm in Sw Florida

I hope this one fizzles out b/c were drenched here. Elsa and the almost daily summertime storms have me with waterfront property! The Ibis are here having a banquet. Stay safe everyone

[MyOwnPeace]

17. As others have noted..........

we 'lose' again with not having TFG here to bring out the 'Magic Sharpie' and send Fred on to those 'Radical Left Democrat' sites so that the world can be safe from harm.....



(Oh, and for you 'trollers' looking for good juicy stuff: )

((Also for you 'trollers' - since you probably don't know what that means:

sar·casm /ˈsärˌkazəm/

noun - the use of irony to mock or convey contempt. ))

18. ROFL

19. However, if it were named Freddie Krueger it would kill people in their sleep.

21. Huzzah!

We're due to get a new roof in the next couple weeks - once the permit comes through. I'm hoping we can get under it before the worst of the season.

[GulfCoast66]

24. Maybe you'll get lucky like me with Erma.

We had a contact for a new roof in October. In September the storm hit and wrecked our shingles. Insurance covered 9K of an 18k roofing job!

Yep, Irma saved me $9,000? My best friend told me I’m the luckiest SOB he has ever met!

[tavernier]

22. Oh pfttttt

Hopefully will bring enough rain for a good car wash.

I should shut up though. I’ve been here 40 years and one of the tropical storms kicked our butt and created worse problems than any Cat 1 or 2 ever did.

You just can’t judge these storms.
