Time will tell but it seems that the weather "experts" are dead wrong every year about hurricanes. For years after Katrina they predicted numerous named storms and several of them would be apocalyptic in nature and then little to nothing happened. This year they've revised their predictions down so I'm naturally thinking that it will be fairly active in the next few months, if not then that's good because I don't want to see Geraldo's mustache get caught in just the right crosswind as to lift him off the ground and carry him to true location of Al Capone's vault.

While "experts" are claiming that this season will be relatively quiet, I think that this will be an active year of hurricanes. They may not be Category 3's and greater, but I think at least half a dozen storms, mostly cat 1's and 2's, will make landfall in the US in highly populated areas. As Sandy showed a Cat 2 striking in a dense urban environment is nothing to sneeze at as the damage from that storm was significant enough to be the most destructive storm since Katrina.

Arthur just grazed the NC coastline and it looks like New England will avoid even a glancing blow. It's early July and there is still August and September, the two most active months for Hurricanes.

Any thoughts or predictions for the 2014 Hurricane season OT?

@toast_burner: You're right, I was mistaken about the economic argument.

It's further proof that Obama's nothing more than a schlub that got elected by using the race card. Everyone knows that Romney is a better leader and more dignified person compared to Obama, however he was overall a weak candidate that should never have run for the office in the first place as he doesn't stand for anything. Before Romney announced his candidacy in 2011 he never said anything remotely critical during Obama's first term in office and so far, he's had nothing to say about Obama's disastrous second term that isn't even half over.

You never gave any reason for your opinion so it's still a stupid comment.

So far from the truth. Russia's economy is based on natural resources and is in complete control of the gas pipelines that heat Europe during the Winter months. Russia is growing more powerful every day, but I don't expect a moron like you to make a thought based on reason and logic.

Don't understand why thegerg is arguing about the M16/AR15 platform when he should be defending the AK and it's variants as they are superior to Stoner's f*cked up designs. Direct Impingement... LOL!

Don't buy new cars, used cars are just as good and are half the price.

America... Two Hundred and Thirty Eight years old, yet she hasn't aged a day.

Ignore her and move on. She probably already has a super ripped bf who treats her like shit and will **** you up if you talk to her.

But I understand your attraction, watching hot girls working for a living is hot.
