Yeeps!

I take a look at the map on Weather Underground site and am reminded of one big reason I am glad I live in Los Angeles. The worst we get from hurricanes is a bit of rain from the remotest fringes (like happened day before yesterday). My prayers for you folks on the Gulf Coast... good luck!

Thanks for the link to the site, filkertom!

Yeah, but here in the hills of New Mexico, I'm not so likely to go sliding into the Pacific, either...

That is a cool site. I've bookmarked it. Weather.com (http://www.weather.com) seems so commercial in comparison.

OTOH, I can go JUMP into the Pacific any time I take the notion. :)

True, true. I suppose I could jump into Navajo Lake...

In some contexts, boring is good. Southern Ontario doesn't get hurricanes (just the occasional remnants). We only get tiny earthquakes. No volcanoes.

Weather Underground is a fantastic site.

I think everybody gets some form of disaster... we're stuck right between tornadoes (tornados?) and forest fires. Right in the golfball-sized-hail zone...

Yeppers - far as I know there isn't a spot in the US that hasn't got its own endemic disaster. Or out of it, I suppose.
