Yeah ... you guys hang on. I'm going to go.

I was watching this on my Google home page's NOAA satellite widget, which I accept makes me an obsessive (in my defense, I also have an USGS earthquake widget -- does that defend me?) I'm going to go hide on an Eastern Boundary until the ice age hits. You guys enjoy your hurricane season.
