A hurricane... In June... lol? Would you like me to link the vast amount of failed Elenin prediction threads? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1367086 Oh my God... what are the odds it happens right around May 20th? What if its headed for Florida? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16256956 [link to news.yahoo.com] "MIAMI (Reuters) - Tropical Storm Alberto formed off the South Carolina coast on Saturday, bringing an early start to the Atlantic hurricane season, forecasters at the U.S. National Hurricane Center said. Alberto had top sustained winds of 45 miles per hour and was in the Atlantic about 140 miles east-southeast of Charleston. It was moving slowly southwest and forecasters said a storm watch might be posted later on Saturday for coastal North and South Carolina. Only moderate strengthening was expected. Alberto was forecast to make a slow loop during the next few days and then turn northeast, making its way along the U.S. mid-Atlantic seaboard before dissipating in about five days." |

You'd have something like 20 hours before it hit. And they couldn't hide it, because plenty of other nations and islands will get hit first. If you get stuck in traffic, get out and jog.

They wouldn't have to evacuate the entire seaboard. Just places that are less than 100 feet (and that's probably being generous) above sea level. Most places won't have to do evacuate any one. Or they simply have to close the beach. Concerns are places like Florida, Long Island and NYC. It seems that they lay low enough and have so many waterways into land.....they could be a problem.

The best way is to build a barrel enclosure like the ones they make for going over Niagra Falls. Then attach a 100 foot chain to it, anchor it into the ground, deep, with a cement base. Either that, or a waterproof ground shelter |

The U.S. has got to be monitoring Las Palmas very seriously. Norfolk Naval Base, home to several aircraft carriers, would be wiped out, as would New Groton CT and it's submarine base. Eight hours warning is not enough time for a couple of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers to get underway, unless they have flying carriers now, a la The Avengers. I imagine that the US Gov't has got all the latest data it needs to be able to take advantage of the earliest possible warnings. |

LOL when, and not if, the volcano at la palma falls into the sea it will send a wall of water 160 feet high and eight hours later when it hits the east coast it will go twenty miles inland and 60M people will die from maine to key west and it will be the biggest catastrophe in the history of the world. the keys will be gone as will south fl and orlando will be beach front property....
