Hurricane Dorian slams into the Bahamas

By Meg Wagner, Fernando Alfonso III, Mike Hayes, Tara John and Jessie Yeung, CNN

Updated 5:21 a.m. ET, September 2, 2019


What we know now

    Category 5 storm: Slow-moving Hurricane Dorian continues to pound the Bahamas after making landfall at Elbow Cay, then Grand Bahama.
The storm is the strongest anywhere on the planet this year.

    The US: Residents on the southern US east coast have been warned to prepare for hurricane-force winds, though forecasts vary about when and where it may make landfall, from Florida to the Carolinas.

Hurricane Dorian will "continue to pound" Grand Bahama Island for the rest of today and tonight and will move "dangerously close" to Florida's east coast, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) warned in its latest update.

As of 5 a.m. ET the hurricane's center was about 40 miles east of Freeport Grand, Bahama Island, with maximum sustained winds of 165mph.

"Although gradual weakening is forecast, Dorian is expected to remain a powerful hurricane during the next couple of days," the NHC added.

It is the 'Birth' of the Earth's version of the
GREAT RED SPOT
(of Jupiter).

Next year, an even bigger hurricane.
In 15 years - it will be so HUGE that it well remain 'permanently' and soon start to 'rotate' around the world, getting bigger and bigger. They Eye of the Storm becoming like a Black Hole.

The more we look out into space, the more we 'Fear' which leads our planet to destruction at the hands of those who wish to 'leave' here.

50 Shades of Dorian Grey.

So far, they start to die out over land.
But as they get 'bigger' - the lands start to look smaller.
Ever see a Hurrican blow out over a small island? Not really.
Not even the size of Cuba or PNG.

Our planet would start to accelerate with its winds so much that we would soon start having an atmosphere like Neptune's.  Tongue

This hurricane is very serious -
it may even get stronger.
It will get stronger - the longer it remains over water.

What we know so far


Kate Lyons
https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2019/sep/02/hurricane-dorian-category-5-s...


    Hurricane Dorian has pounded the northernmost islands of the Bahamas with winds reaching speeds of more than
220mph (355kmh).


    The first death was reported from the hurricane by Eyewitness News in the Bahamas, which spoke with a woman who said she had learned her eight-year-old grandson had died, likely drowned, and her granddaughter was missing. Both children were in the Abaco Islands.

    Dorian is the biggest storm to hit the island chain in modern times and has been described as “catastrophic” and posing a “life-threatening” risk.

    Meteorologists are finding it difficult to predict the path of the hurricane because of its wide “cone of uncertainty”. Though the Bahamas will probably suffer the most devastation, the big question in terms of scale of potential human suffering is where and when Dorian will hit along the east coast of the US, where population density is so much greater.

    Georgia and South Carolina issued evacuation orders for their coastal communities on Sunday night as the National Hurricane Center warned of storm surges that could reach 18ft to 23ft (5.5m-7m) above normal levels.

I hope it gets even bigger.
So HUGE - the entire USA gets covered in its cloud.

For a people who took to the air and soared like an Eagle to the Stars above. It was always going to be the 'Sky' that ruled the fate of the USA.  Wink
Like a 'God' the largest Hurricane to cover all of the USA would become known as 'THOR'.
Do you know what Australia's is Bobby?  Huh

Okay, so what's with people calling hurricanes 'hurricuns' now?

When did that start, and why?

And, will the next hurricane be called Hurricane Phrygian?

This GOES-16 satellite image taken Sunday, Sept. 1, 2019, at 17:00 UTC and provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), shows Hurricane Dorian, right, churning over the Atlantic Ocean. Hurricane Dorian struck the northern Bahamas on Sunday as a catastrophic Category 5 storm, its 185 mph winds ripping off roofs and tearing down power lines as hundreds hunkered in schools, churches and other shelters.

Are you blaming it on:

(1) Global warming.
(2) Global cooling.
(3) Climate change.
(4) An act of God.
(5) Normal unpredictable weather.
