This has to be some of the most blatant, asinine fear porn I've ever seen.
Did the OP seriously draw associations between a sink hole, the "prophet" Isaac, and the name of a (relatively weak) tropical storm??
And then declared that crackpot scammer Edgar Cayce is somehow comparable to Isaac???
It's like the OP is distinctly ignorant of each of the topics that are the main subjects of the post.
Weather is weather. It's not a campaign against humanity or any other addle-brained nonsense.
Trash like this is why ATS is primarily brain-pollution.

According to the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, a category two would start at 979 mb. The media is downplaying the actual event simply because this is a 70 mph tropical storm. Isaac will move slowly into Louisiana, causing wind speed damage from surge and flooding across the Gulf States. The wind is not the issue here, the issue is with the building swell under the system's low pressure, including over 20 inches of rain, possibly higher around the storm. Other Hurricanes of the past with this low of pressure have had winds over 100 mph already. The wind isn't the killer, it is the surge and flooding caused by the storm. One must remember that although Hurricane Katrina hit category five status out in the Gulf, it weakened to a category three at landfall, weakening further to a one. The damage in New Orleans happened with category one winds from the northeast. It did not happen with category three winds as it was further away from the landfall point. The category system needs to be redone. My viewers must understand that although this is a Tropical Storm, almost a category one ... that you need to understand the effects will be deadly, with surge and flooding being the main issue, that of category three or four conditions.

Just an update to start the new day. The track from this prediction appears to now take it up into Texas once across New Orleans. This is good and bad in my opinion. It's Good...because the part of the nation it now looks to be headed to is in such desperate need of rain and I mean any rain, they'd do naked rain dances in Times Square if anyone thought it would help. This may bring too much....but it beats watching the land we all love die from thirst, quite literally.
Bad... of course..because this hasn't solved a thing for Louisiana. It's tracking as a Cat-2, again, according to the data on this site. We'll see how reliable it all turns out to be. The HAARP map is interesting and thanks for the link back to the original spot. This is the second time I've seen a map like that for HAARP but the first time I had the link for original data. Thanks for that!

Hope your friends are coming for a little visit? How can it be this bad and no coverage, evacuations? How far would the evacs have to be?

So what's the worst thing that can happen when this storm hits this tiny sinkhole.
Will a tree fall in it ? I don't get it.

I hope lightening doesn't strike. And, is it me, or does this hurricane have a mind of it's own? Does anyone see a remote control antennae, located on top of this storm???
