And Now For Frances

Great. This is great.

Just. Flipping. Great.

We just got done with Charley, it's still not cleaned up. Massive amounts of branches still line all the streets waiting for clean-up crews to come collect them. You can barely see the houses from the street on my dad's block, because of all the yard waste waiting to be picked up. And all that's gonna go flying when Frances hits.

She's five times larger than Charley and is moving slower. The eye will bring a TWO HOUR calm, that's how slow she's going and how big she is. Hurricane force winds extend EIGHTY MILES out from her center... That's a 160-mile line of hurricane force winds. Super. Can't wait. Anyone feel like flying a poor single mom and her kid out of harm's way real quick? Heh...

When it rains, it pours... oh wait no, that's not a pour. That's a hurricane. Right.
