Hey... (Starting next season) I get to FLY through the storms! Yes, I mean it! (*Shannon points to her Hurricane Hunter patch*)

If you have the RECCO/DROP observation codes memorized... you might be a hurricane nut.

I'm guilty of the 9,000 images of Hurricanes/Typhoons... and 30 bookmarked Hurricane pages.... and Hurricane season type drink recipes so fitting for after landfall.... my bedroom is usually at cat 1 destruction.

When you starwatch and see galaxies, then you start to think about hurricanes. :lol:

When people smile at me, I think about hurricanes and monsterous hypercanes. :eek:

If you've ever pondered dressing up as a hurricane for Halloween. Or for that matter, if you've done it.

You have a collection of sealed masonry jars containing rainwater from the tropical cyclones you have experienced labeled with storm name and year

If when doing dishes or washing your car, you deliberately spin the water in a counterclockwise direction to watch the suds form a nice hurricane appearance...

Yeah, you might be one of those people :eek:

If you're a kid, and you're watching Typhoon Cimaron instead of Trick or Treating, you might be a Hurricane nut.

An updated version of the one I'm the MOST guilty of

If you have at least 9,841 satelitte images of at least 114 different tropical systems, you might be a Hurricane nut.

If you went on a Hunger strike until the season got active, your dead now, and you might be a Hurricane nut.

If you're watching Cimaron commit suicide instead of getting a good night sleep, you might be a Hurricane nut.
