Looks like a big a$$ ufo.

I'm glad to hear there were not more casualties than there are. It's just a good reminder we have no control over mother nature and it could have been a LOT worse.

I can't understand how 37 people died in a cat-2 hurricane. I don't think that many people have died here in FL over the last 15 years from hurricanes. So I'm wondering this to myself, then I see all the clips on the news of dumbasses getting drunk and running around, riding bikes, etc in the hurricane. Retards.

actually thought it ended up being cat 1 when hitting U.S.

was like a 3 when at bahamas? went right thru them...i havent heard much news about that..i expected a lot of devastation...

here's a detailed list of the deaths and how they happened

from the few articles i found i would have to say the must have been....the u.s. east coast had plenty of time as well to prepare

lol you sound like a heavy metal teenager.

it does look cool though seeing that huge menacing object approach our little frail towns that we always thought were so great...just ready to leave a "oops" mother nature footprint.

I find it somewhat disturbing about the death count.. Its definitely inflated to make the storm sound worse n mainly get bigger ratings for the media... I mean c'mon, a bunch of those deaths weren't even directly to the storm.. people dying of Carbon monoxide from generators, people dying cutting down trees after the storm had passed.. pretty disrespectful to the families who lost someone in the storm for the media to use it as an excuse to gain ratings/revenue...
