RedToasterBox Posted May 28, 2009 #8 Share Posted May 28, 2009 This is awesome. I live in Florida and look forward to hurricane season every year. There's nothing like being at the beach during a hurricane. Like Ron White said "Hurricanes are awesome...until sh*t starts hitting MY house."

Peaceful Posted May 28, 2009 #12 Share Posted May 28, 2009 We are always so thankful when we get the homeowners renewal policy in our hands every August!!!:eek: I have been grateful in the past when the rate increased nearly $1000...as opposed to cancellation that is. I think you have to live here to understand the trauma of waiting for insurance renewals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratt Posted May 28, 2009 #16 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I will be on carnival fascination June 4th headed to the Bahamas and I did a 10day forecast for Jacksonville,Nassau,Freeport and it suppose to rain! What a bomber! Hopefully it will change! But I will still enjoy the ship! We have been to the Bahamas directly and by cruise and both times rain was predicted everyday while we were there. The cruise departed from Miami and rain was predicted and it rained for maybe 15 minutes in the evening. Wasn't much and the rain wasn't the problem, the humidity was off the chart. :) The day the cruise was in Nassau it was dry but a small rain shower came through as we were leaving in the evening. The direct trip was 4 nights and like you I was watching the forecast and it showed rain everyday and it had me worried that our trip would be ruined. Turns out that it rained every afternoon / evening for a short time and then it was over. The days were sunny to partly sunny and hot. Both of our trips were in June and we had a great time. Have a great trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsdmhutch Posted May 29, 2009 #23 Share Posted May 29, 2009 That area of weather was off the NC coast a few days ago. Made for a nasty Memorial Day weekend. Let's hope we don't get as bad as 2005. Mom and I cruised in Dec of 2005 and they were still naming storms. Besides Katrina and Wilma, that's the year we made it to Tropical Storm Zeta....on December 30 no less.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphakitty Posted May 29, 2009 #24 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Hmm....I spent Memorial Day weekend in the Outer Banks of NC and it was beautiful everyday! We were there Thursday - Sunday (day before Mem day). It is early for this type of storm. Fred, since you asked...... the water temps in New England are running from the low to high 50's right now. http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/dsdt/cwtg/natl.html Let me share a photo from the weekend. Sunset over Roanoke Sound in Nags Head, NC. No rain in sight! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsdmhutch Posted May 29, 2009 #25 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Ohh...that is beautiful. *sigh*. We had "something" causing all the rain in Charlotte....It has rained here everyday since last Friday I think. Sun now, but t-storms building already for this evening. It was all coming up from the southeast....whatever system that hit FL and caused so much problems. And I do remember the weather guys talking about watching the development of a system off the coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
