Reporting live from inside Hurricane Sandy

edited October 2012 in General
My towns bulkheads have been breached and a good portion of my 3 mile town has been evacuated. 2 Colliding storms of different pressures are stalling it over us. Hurricanes spin counter clock wise as Winter storms spin clockwise. Imagine this, this system is a hurricane but could bring snow. Well anyway Dark Fort signing off, wish me luck! lol

    It's funny when America floods its a disaster but when Australia does no one cares so you know what I don't even care enjoy the weather ;)
  • FlazerFlazer
    there is a reason no one cares
  • TalnoyTalnoy
    I suppose we are good enough to look after ourselves :P
    i guess its not the countries fault its the media that thinks everyone else in the world give a shit
  • PiePie
    If a community in Australia get decimated they're out 30 bucks, a couple kangaroos and a few pygmies... That's why no one cares about hurricanes in Australia.
