Well, I have to look at the bright side. Looks like I left Guantanamo Bay just in time!

I'll be heading to Orlando in 10 days
Wow, my upcoming trip to Colorado is mighty timely.
Same here about Okinawa. Tank rent was $2.00 and a fill was $1.00. I would sometimes check out the Sunabe sea wall cam, call a fellow diver and we would be in the water 30 minutes after work. First dive at daylight / dusk and second dive a night dive. Home by 9 o'clock for only 6 bucks.
All my deployment s were either hot as Hell, or cold as it gets, with no thought as to recreation, I guess I was in the wrong Army :)
We don't need any more rain here in SFL! The idiots in SFWM will dump a few billion gallons of water out of the Big O and damage the reefs...again. Gotta get that damn issue resolved with the everglades restoration.
As far as predicitons....NOAA has to make the broadest prediction to panic ....I mean warn as many people as possible so they err on the side of caution. Other agencies (like utilities and insurance companies) can focus on actual tracking to predict storm damage as opposed to worrying about making anybody with a 10% chance of getting a few gusts of wind rush out and buy all the water, gas, batteries in the state.
I hope this guy is wrong this time:

"A track into the eastern Gulf of Mexico now looks very likely on Monday and I do think that Isaac will make its final landfall on the Florida Panhandle between Fort Walton Beach and Panama City on Wednesday morning. It needs to be pointed out that the ocean heat content in the eastern Gulf of Mexico is quite high and significant intensification is quite possible. Should this occur, then a significant and formidable hurricane could be making landfall on the Florida Panhandle on Wednesday morning."
