If Irma hits Mar-a-lago wouldn't that be funny.

Coincidence or is it a sign?

Not that I want the hurricane to hit US at all.
Just wondering if Pat Robinson or Fox News will mention it.

Quick funny story. I was stuck at camp with some religious and Trump supporters early this weekend. The topic of Irma came up and one of them mention it was a sign from God and he is not happy with the US. I blurred out "yeah, god is not happy that we elected Trump." They dismissed it quickly. I said that if Irma hit Marlo Largo then you know it is true. We laugh and they said okay. Funny that when I told this joke, early projections had the hurricane missing the US or possible skimming the Carolinas. Also projecting a hurricane to hit 1 specific spot is extremely low anyways. Not that I want the hurricane to hit US, but it would be nice to rub it in their faces.

The destruction path of a hurricane can be miles wide. A lot of good
people would have to suffer just to get at someone like Trump.

Of course we all know that Donald Trump will blame the National Weather Service for the track Hurricane Irma with her fire and fury.

What's even funnier is that it will likely take out Miami and Ft. Lauderdale on the way up.

Isn't that hysterical?

In 1926, a hurricane of similar size to Irma hit Miami. The rain and storm surge weakened and breached earthen leavees around Lake Okeechobee that resulted in flooding that killed hundreds.

As much as I dislike tRump, I do not want to see Irma hit Florida or anywhere else for that matter. As a survivor of Hurricanes Andrew and Charley, I'll tell you that Irma will damage a lot of homes and lives at its current intensity should it make landfall.

The latest US and Euro models suggest it's vulnerable.

Not good for the people that work there.
