3. Storm Frances? Storm Ivan? Is this CIA psy-ops to make FL fear Europeans?
Firming up the allegience to Their Fearless Leader by tarnishing whatever country is associated with unpredictable destruction.

Fascist carnies are capable of this kind of thing.

6. Storm track models and predictions


My brother and his family (wife, two sons ages 1 and 6) live in Orlando. They've been having a tense summer, to say the least. The six-year-old is a nervous wreck.

9. Cuba is going to suffer the most
If the present track holds, a lot of the energy of the storm will be spent going over Cuba.
