Title: Remember the new place I moved in to?
Post by: Pugnate on Wednesday, June 02, 2010, 01:57:28 PM: Don't worry, it is very nice, and I am happy...

Unfortunately it is near the sea... I am 10 minutes from the beach.....aaaaaannnnd.... there is a cyclone that is apparently headed this way or something. Should hit tomorrow night...

Last time something like that happened in this city many years ago, there was a flooding near the coastal line and all hell broke loose...

So yea... if I am not around for a few days... don't worry. :P

Post by: Pugnate on Wednesday, June 02, 2010, 02:23:34 PM: I shall go to my roof and scream out the lyrics "I SHALL SURVIVE!"

And the storm will laugh.

Well presumably all of his stuff in his house. If the storm gets him, it'll get his house too. Goats are the exception, they're impenetrable to water.

Post by: Pugnate on Thursday, June 03, 2010, 06:14:41 AM: Please don't use the words "goat" and "impenetrable" in the same sentence.

Keebler will think of it as a challenge.

So far no storm yet. How anticlimactic!

Apparently it is expected to hit in a few days.

Post by: Pugnate on Sunday, June 06, 2010, 12:33:09 AM: Good thing the Phet lost power on its detour to Oman and was declassified from a class 5 tropical cyclone (like Hurricane Katrina), to a thunderstorm.

Rained from last night at 12:30, and is still raining 12 hours later. We haven't had power since four in the morn. Glad I have a laptop. :)

Raisa, that sounds awesome.

Went to the beach to check things out, and the government had basically blockaded access.

The port end of the city is underwater and has been evacuated.

Maybe we all should just contact Andrew Ryan and get our own Rapture going...

Post by: Pugnate on Sunday, June 06, 2010, 08:25:19 AM: lol thanks D.

Finally got power 18 hours later. The worst of it was not getting sleep. Felt like a zombie. Conditions were too wet to use a generator.

Anyway this wasn't the cyclone. Apparently these were just after effects from when it hit Oman.

The real cyclone may or may not hit in a few hours. Should be fun. Saw a really awesome rainbow today.
