2012 Comes Early

[Peter]

You might want to start to hurricane proof your houses, 2012 is starting 3 years earlier than expected.

On the bright side, at least it won't be raining. I think I might go out and fly my kite next Friday.

Ahahaha! Win!

 

[kimahri]

Well... Bugger.

 

[CMonster]

Wait what?

 

[Error]

It's -9C here.

Shush you.

 

[Hixee]

Sweet.

 

[Pokemaniac]

Wind speed of... 326 mph? That's 525 km/h.

Ouch.

 

[LiveForTheLaunch]

Haha.. Nice.

Don't complain about your temperatures though. Compared to us over here, you get only mildly hot summers, and mildly cold winters.

And those winds sound intense. Reminds me of a few years back (actually a lot of years back, I was in my middle years of grade school) when we had this huge windstormy blizzard thing and I was trying to walk home from school and the wind knocked me over and I fell into a bike rack. Yay!

 

[Pokemaniac]

^It's a mess up, I think. Wind speeds exceeding 500 km/h simply doesn't occur in England. The Beaufort Scale stops at 118 km/t, and that's considered a really strong hurricane. Somebody forgot to put in a dot.

Pfft, that's nothing, when Cyclone George hit the Pilbara region in 2007 there were gusts of 285 km/h.

Bearing in mind the record windspeed ever recorded at ground level is 231mph, I reckon there's a mistake. Surely if windspeeds like these are ever even predicted there'd be a mass media panic?

:lol:

 

[Ben]

Well, I HOPE there's a mistake, I don't really plan on dying...

 

[ciallkennett]

It's changed back to normal now

 

[bezzzzzer]

Thank God, I'm flying to Orlando on that day. To be honest, obviously a screw up.

Bet it would be fun being in the air with those winds..

 

[CMonster]

Ohhhh... I get it now...

 

[Jer]

Ahahaha, glad im over here in the states.
