1. And Earl has a chance of hitting the North-East!

2. Yeah, we're probably overdue for one up this way

Last one, as I recall, was Hurricane Bob in 1992

4. Ernesto In 2006

I know. I was there. Climbing Mt Washington above treeline when that sucker hit.

Six hours in a washing machine. With snow and sleet flying horizontally.

8. Actually, Hugo was September of 1989...

I was on vacation in Canada when it blew through. Not much, if any rain...but some pretty refreshing wind in Montreal...

3. Earl is going to hit the Leewards

Virgins and maybe Puerto Rico first.

5. True.

7. Looks like he'll also be a hurricane by morning

Get ready folks - at least he's moving fast

6. Yes, they are swirling and dancing. But they always do that. dc
