do take a look. I live Right on the border of Southeast Texas and Lousianna. The path shows that the hurricane "will" hit us-. but my stepfather believes there is a chance it wont(given this graph)-now the storm stretches roughly 350 miles across, and the path trajectory is about that exact size.---------my Step-Father claims that, THAT is NOT the "real path:"----only the specified general region the hurricane moves-and the center of that path holds the hurricane.

now with a hurricane stretching 350miles wide, and a trajectory path of general region stretching that exact distance, do you feel there is a good chance(given the general trajectory) that the hurricane will miss us?.....



Vote now!!-tell me what you think.


1. It will definately hit us
2. it "might" hit us
3. It will definately NOT hit us
4. or, i need to get the fuck out of here...

There's also a chance you won't get electricuted when you place the penny in the outlet......but probably a good idea not to do it.

Best to get the heck out of dodge.
