Hurricane Irma

[NYCBlue]

No. It's a tropical storm rather than a hurricane.

It's actually a tropical cyclone, also known as a hurricane. What's your point?

What are your feelings on the term typhoon ?

Boyo, take some advice, turn off CNN or your preferred corporate media brainwashing medium of choice to discover that Irma is a dud.

I've been watching football since 8am . When that's over I'm watching American football until 11pm. I'll read about the hurricane tomorrow. I don't watch commercial news channels. No need to.

CNN are putting their reporters in ridiculous positions. This one guy in miami just now couldn't hear a thing, wing and rain smashing into his face. While the area behind him was flooded. It was a port and the boats were moving loads.

Edit - theyre still using him live right now

Please, we don't need your cynicism. And anyway, there's hardly a shortage of Indians and Bangladeshis. We should save our long-range sympathies for those humans the mainstream media are most concerned about.
