Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / February 2006OTP - Batten down the hatches we are in for a blow!
Yikes strongest storm of the season comes ashore tonight. Hurricane force winds at the coast with 38 foot seas.....Yikes! Coast Guard has warnings out that they will not be able to do rescues. Barometric pressure is forecast to be around 960 mb which is in the Category 3 range of hurricanes. Gusts to 90 miles per hour. On this saturated ground it will be a mess of downed trees. The good news is the rain is supposed to stop next week yipppppeeeee! Winds in the valley were expected to have gusts up to 50 mph. I sure hope my trees hold up. I've lost several branches already.:( Kelly C. > Yikes strongest storm of the season comes ashore tonight. Hurricane > force winds at the coast with 38 foot seas.....Yikes!

How come ours comes from New England? We had snow and freezing rain from the Atlantic seaboard the other day. We don't send it all. :-) --- Joan >> we're finally going to get some real winter (thanks canada for blowing >> some [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > --- > Joan er.... latitudes maybe? in northern lower MI, we are further north than parts of Canada and most of the US. any artic air mass that gets to us must be a recent canadian resident - though it may actually have entered canada from alaska, just to confuse matters lol a friend from high school now lives in a small village in alaska - perhaps i should be attributing this one to him!

Definitely, Nann, never take responsibility for something if you can pass it off one someone else, especially if they don't know about it. ROFL --- Joan We had a HUGE windstorm in western Washington yesterday! The winds took the tiles off the roof of my apartment building! And lots of people are without electricity - not good when the Seahawks are playing in the Super Bowl today! They are working hard to get everyone back on line in time!

Good...that means it should be here a few days later. I'm perfectly happy not to shovel snow, but it's just wrong to have daffodils coming up in January.

I just wish they'd shared with the rest of Canada first. For the second time this winter, my irises are showing signs of life, and my friend's apple tree has buds on it. It sure feels nice, but it can't be good. One rumor says we are getting some freezing rain today. Another says that sometime this weekend we will finally get the snow dump that we should have had back in October or November. I hope so. There are too many cool activities that depend on having a decent amount of snow. Besides, it gets my jacket dirty when I make dirt angels... Janet N. Well, it has been raining her nonstop for the last 2 days, but in the last half hour, it just changed over to all snow. They are forcasting 5-10 inches her between today and overnight, so am glad I don't have to go out for much! They are also calling for the winds to become quite strong which of course will cause significant blowing and drifting of all that snow. Hang in there everyone and look out east coasters, as usually what ever we get, you seem to get twice as bad! Sure hope all you PNW people stay safe and that the storms turn out not to be as bad as predicted!!! Hugs, Donna G - > Yikes strongest storm of the season comes ashore tonight.

It's supposed to start to blow here tonight. Stay dry and stay safe you guys. At three months Kayla is a self-respecting Border Collie pup. She will happily go out and lie in the yard in the rain and play with her toys and try to coax me in to joining her for a game of soccer. She draws the line at 25+ MPH winds. She will be in glaring at the door wanting the wind to go away. I guess when its windy all the sheep are supposed to be safely inside. Jo Yous guys don't have to hog all that rain you know. We are about 10" short around here and could use some of it. As long as I don't have to shovel it, that is! GaryZ > Yikes strongest storm of the season comes ashore tonight.

Mary, I hope you will be spared any damage and will be safe and secure during the storms. We're having a snow storm in Ohio right now. Fun and games! ;-) Nanny > Yikes strongest storm of the season comes ashore tonight. Hurricane > force winds at the coast with 38 foot seas.....Yikes!
