Glad to see you're back!
I understood it went into the Atlantic and then back south too.

That's how the AP story I saw in the paper two days ago explained it, too. Parts of Ivan had broken off and headed into the ocean, and strolled scross Florida and into the Gulf of Mexico. There, the pieces gathered some strength, enough to become a tropical depression and enough to be named. They debated for a while whether they should still call it Ivan or name it Matthew.

It looks like FL can't catch a break.

"IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT!!!!!!!!"
According to a woman in Panama City who wrote a letter to the editor that was printed in Monday's News Herald (affectionately known to locals as the "Nude Harold", because they print the naked truth).
Her diatribe blamed President Bush for the succession of hurricanes ("THREE IN ONE MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"). She claimed that Bush has done nothing to stop global warming, which is causing more frequent and more severe storms, according to research which she did not cite.
We should elect Kerry, because he will find a solution to end global warming, thereby eliminating hurricanes.
Oh, puh-leeeeeeze.

There's a letter to the editor in my local paper today, where some woman says there will be no aid for Florida because all the money is going to Iraq. This woman must have no common sense at all. Do you really think Dubya would leave 20-something electoral votes high and dry (no pun intended)?

Some of these may be interesting tomorrow when Jeanne is expected to hit landfall,(unless of course they lose power )

The last few minutes of their functionality ought to be exciting. During the approach of Ivan, one of the weather data buoys south of Mobile reportedly recorded wave heights of 51 feet . . . right before it broke loose from it's mooring and washed ashore.
There's an extra element of danger with Jeanne:
