I once saw clouds similar to that before a major tornado hit our area. We stayed safe. You do the same. Sorry to be repititious, but we need DUers and all others out there for the betterment of our land.

(43,049 posts)9PM tonight, so the worst flooding will be after dark.
Ocean boardwalks may disappear, dunes and barrier beaches will be reformed, a few waterfront houses may be swept away...
But for everyone, this is going to be a real stinky mess to start cleaning up on Wednesday. Everyone who's seen the Raritan River flood from a decent rain must be having nightmares right about now.

Katrina remains in my mind as epitomizing the callousness and corruption of the Booshcheney Era.

Good luck to all of you that are up there.

Actually, this was from George Takei's Facebook page. His comment:
"Fans are concerned about Photoshopped storm images being shared to cause alarm, so I verified this one first with Fox News."
