Ike Seems Like A Deadly Storm

[jjgold]

Have not followed it until now but it seems it is going to hit some major areas of texas hard. We should know more in the next 10 hrs or so.

[sickler]

I heard storm is 900 km wide. Friggin monster

[BadNina]

Parts of Texas (including Houston) are flooding now.

[SBR Lou]

I think it's overblown. From the TV it looked like the reporters were trying to pump it up and make it look more bad than it was.

[AnotherLoan]

Check back in a few hours. Galveston will be leveled.

[pavyracer]

The US will shrink by several hundred square miles tomorrow once the Gulf of Mexico claims back Galveston Island.

How much money you got, Pavy?

[trytrytry]

this storm surge is giong to be aweful

The weather service

The weather service feeds on this sh*t. They make their ad revenue from 7/1 - 10/1, take everything they say w/ a grain of salt. Remember, in Asia the numbers are in percentages of millions, here they rarely reach the hundreds.

[BadNina]

the fires in Galveston are horrible

[pavyracer]

How much money you got, Pavy?

Plenty. It's simple math. A 17 ft tall wall can't stop 25 ft tall stom surge. They better have the body bags ready for the idiots that stayed there.

They will be put out at 4 am when the 25 ft storm surge hits.

Hmmmm...not what you asked...we were going off several hundred sqaure miles of land...INCLUDING GALVESTON. Want the bet?

[sickler]

Bad news is good news. CNN is milking it (what else is new...)

[SlickFazzer]

Galveston's goose might be cooked in a couple of hours.

[BadNina]

So the only businesses in downtown Houston were city hall and the police department. Someone in the glass business may make a whole lotta money for the next couple of weeks.

They will lose the land tomorrow. They will get it back in a few days. A loss is a loss.

[Panic]

Of course the water is coming in, Pavy. No argument there. I live 150 miles from the coast(Corpus Christi, Galveston, ect) and I'm waiting for the rain to come tonight. They say we are going to get 1 to 2 inches of rain soon and then the real sh!t hits the fan after it. I agree, but in the same sense we arent on the coast. Those people are getting the sh!t.

[AnotherLoan]

Watching here locally not sure what they are showing nationally. There was just a report on the seawall and it looks like the water is right at the top of the seawall and coming over so its just a matter of time before the big part gets to Galveston and wipes it out.

[Panic]

Ike looks like it is going to veer towards Louisiana once it hits Galveston full force. Is anybody watching the idiot, Geraldo out there reporting for fox news?

[MJFtheGenius]

I hope this storm is the real deal

I took the over on homes destroyed by storm

line is 205 and climbing

got with local in Newark

[AnotherLoan]

[MJFtheGenius]

looks serious

I was joking take back what i said

[Panic]

Crazyl, you ready for the rain coming? Welcome to Texas. Ike is coming.

[EaglesPhan36]

I grew up in Houston and lived there when Alicia hit back in '83 - which is what they are comparing this too. We got flooding at my house back then, but no major damage. I think downtown Houston will get some blownout windows & flooding in the usual areas that flood. Galveston is F-ed, but it's a craphole to begin with - kinda like New Orleans. There is no reason to live there in the first place.

[BadNina]

Hi Genuis. I have missed you.






I cannot believe I just said that.

[EaglesPhan36]

Geraldo Rivera is an idiot. Trying to use big vocab words while a 100+ mph gust of wind blows his moustache straight up his vagina.

Yea figure i'd stop in and make some high quality post

[BadNina]

I think it would be funny if some debris whacked Geraldo in the head.

[BadNina]

You missed me. Admit it.

[MJFtheGenius]

You missed me. Admit it.

could not get you out of my head

was thinking about you everyday

[Panic]

Geraldo just disappeared on tv. Nina, you jinxed him.

No. Galveston was flooded even before the eye hit. 17 foot wave coming says local news.
