    According to the National Hurricane Center, the outer rain bands are already over extreme South Florida.

    oh, FINE, we'll use this one.

    NHC doesn't think it'll be a strong storm -- it can't seem to decide on a circulation center -- but it'll take a Wilma-like path, only closer to the East Coast, so rain for everyone!

    Fene, here's the deal: We need the rain desperately. As noted by one of the weathercasters tonight (I was at dinner, there was beer, scallops and shrimp, and I didn't catch who it was or which station), this could be a perfect drought-buster without actually tearing up the landscape.

    I hope.

    Bad news: Hurricane season off to quick start again.
    Good news: More Stephanie Abrams.

    No wonder evacuation from New Orleans didn't go as planned. Everyone turned to The Weather Channel and thought a warm front was moving through.

    Actually, they usually wind up putting her well out of harm's way, whether intentionally or not. For Katrina, she started out in Ft. Walton Beach.
