Finn the Human Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Well in school, we have no more recess to go outside so I rely on gym to play sports. And I have 3 periods of gym weekly. I am so sad that Friday is raining. -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altador Cup Champion Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 A Hurricane Might Hit On Monday but It shouldn't be bad as Irene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn the Human Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hurricane Sandy is on it's way!!! It's supposed to hit harder than Irene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome Back Apathy Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Put the brain of an arctic Nor'easter storm inside the brawny body of Hurricane Sandy, and you get...FRANKENSTORM! HULK SMAAAASH! Whoops, combining my fiction here. I'm honestly terrified of Frankenstorm, but it doesn't seem like anyone else who's ACTUALLY in the Northeast is worried. The people who are hyping it up are news places from outside of it. But the storm is supposed to hit starting tomorrow, and school is canceled, so someone must be worried, right? I'm terrified because I'm Californian, plus I'm disabled and wind blows me about pretty easily as it is! I don't know, there's supposed to be an estimated $1 billion in damage. We'll see.

karmacow Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Frankenstorm sounds terrifying! I'm anxious for those who are in its path. I'm thankful to live in a place where it's an event if an earthquake knocks a glass of water on the floor. Or even an earthquake that can barely be noticed.

The Bandit Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 All the best to anyone on the Eastern Seaboard - hope you make it through the next couple of days ok. So thankful we don't get that kind of thing in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altador Cup Champion Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 Frankenstorm Just made my internet go down and I don't have school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 There's no school where I live due to Hurricane Sandy. I hope that it's not as worse as Irene was last year. My area should hopefully get some of the side effects of Sandy like 50 to 60 MPH wind gusts and rain (hopefully no thunder). I know late October sounds like an unusual time to have a hurricane, but they can happen any time between June 1st to November 30th, so be prepared if one hits your area. If you like, you can track Sandy here while you can: http://www.weather.com/weather/hurricanecentral/tracker/2012/sandy Luckily, it's not aiming as directly close to where I live as where Irene did. I'm in Rhode Island by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylee Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 it's pretty cold where i am right now. but i am definitely hoping for the best for all those who have been/will be affected by hurricane sandy. i experienced hurricane isaac during the summer and that was not fun. and from what i've been reading, sandy seems to be a lot worse.
