Danny Prediction Thread

OK all you amateur meteorologists... looks like we have a newly developed Tropical Storm- Danny. The early reports have this system hitting anywhere from the Carolinas to Canada. The possibility exists that a significant tropical storm or perhaps even a minimal hurricane could plow into Cape Cod by this weekend. Could this be another passing blow ala "Bill" or a complete miss or a dead-on bullseye hit? Whattaya all think? Will this be the storm that kicks the fall run into high gear or just weed everything up to unfishable conditions?

Let the predictions, the hype and the fun begin.

"Twitch....Twitch....Twitch....WHAM!"

Danny'll be barely a one bottle gale...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Complete and utter mayhem...dog and cats living together, pluggers and eelers joining in a group hug, boatmen fishing the surf...

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

From my extensive past personal experiences with these storms I figure that I'll wind up good and screwed out of another productive weekend. Karl, why is your Wild Turkey pink on my 'puter?

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

If the trees don't fall, no big deal. Small tides, fast moving, other than the sound side and buzards bay which might have trouble with the canal tunnel flooding.

Striper fishermen all over New England will gather plovers and keep them warm under lightbulbs in cardboard boxes lined with newspaper...until the danger has passed and they can be returned to their exclusive grounds.

RIRock's prediction sure to go wrong...

Strong tropical storm. Below Hurr. strength
Highest gust in RI will be on the Block at 50kt. Highest sustained in SoCo will be 30-40kts.
Depending on the track MV or ACK will hit 60kt gusts.

Minor shoreline erosion, 2-3ft of storm surge for one tidal cycle. Erosion will be a bit more than if this was the first storm of the season, but not drastic.

Was sure to go wrong;
Change to 20-30 sustained in RI and 40-50kt gusys on ACK and I was close
clammer got it right with 'Miss'

It's going to be close to that, unless that trough bites a little harder and then it won't be 35kt gusts.

Wink

A sharp dressed British gentleman was waiting for a lorry,
an intoxicated hobo was curled up in front of the building behind him..
a lovely lass joined the gentlemen at the lorry stop, as they were
waiting the gent muttered... "tickle your ass with a feather" rather
quickly... the lass shouted, "What did you say??"..
"Sorry Miss, I merely stated, "Typical Nasty Weather!", no insult intended!"
She seemed embarrassed, and apologized for the confusion..
the lorry came, and the gent and the lass boarded...

A few minutes later a middle aged woman arrived to wait for the next lorry..
The hobo, who was amused by the gents trick thought he would give it a try...but could not quite remember what to say...so...
He said a little too loudly.. "Shove a quill up yer ass!"
The woman was horrified and shrieked..."What did you say to me, you smelly bum?"
"Sorry lady....*hic*...
all I said was...."








"Gonna Rain!"




and that is all it's gonna do
well.. a little wind too...
i really don't think this thing is gonna strengthen going over colder waters...

American Honey, by Wild Turkey, used to come in a nice package, when it was just called Wild Turkey Liqueur..
Wild Turkey based Honey Liqueur...
