You might be a Hurricane Nut if......

[Cyclone1]

If you've ever made your own hypothetical hurricane season, you might be a hurricane nut.

[alan1961]

A real hurricane nut is someone that remortgages the house so he can jump on and off planes and chase them

[Frank2]

...you look at the whirlpool in the bathtub and say, "I see an eye!"

[alan1961]

your definately a hurricane nut if you get a job on the rigs in the GOM

[Cyclone1]

You might be a hurricane nut if you talk to tropical cyclones, while you look at them on satellite, saying things such as "You can do it! C'mon, get past that sheer!"

[AnnularCane]

...You find yourself wondering what shear and dry air must feel like.

[Cyclone1]

... If you see the word "two", and the number 2 doesn't even cross your mind.

[olddude]

...if your inner body clock is set to 49 minutes after the hour, just in time to turn on Tropical Update.

[EDR1222]

Or...if you get slightly distracted.... and then you look at the clock and it says 53 after the hour and anxiety sets in because you suddenly realize you missed the tropical update!

[AnnularCane]

Or...if you get slightly distracted.... and then you look at the clock and it says 53 after the hour and anxiety sets in because you suddenly realize you missed the tropical update!

That happens to me a lot.

Of course these days, the anxiety only lasts a matter of seconds when I realize, "Hey, it doesn't matter! I have the internet now!"

[olddude]

Or...if you get slightly distracted.... and then you look at the clock and it says 53 after the hour and anxiety sets in because you suddenly realize you missed the tropical update!

I hate that!
