    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.

    Here's Fox News sensationalising a, er, branch falling.

    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.

    NFL cancelled the Miami - Buccs game. They don't do that lightly. Maybe they watched the sensationalist MSM...

    Re: Hurricane Irma

    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
