so... it looks like the crazy big-to-do tropical storm isabella rosselini has passed. i'm not impressed. it was all a bunch of blowing sounds and rain. im used to that. just kidding. it kinda had me freaked out last night. i didnt sleep so good. rained HARD, in an almost horizontal fashion. my dog was brave enough to want to go out and pee in that. i watched from the door. anyone have any stories about the storm? |

Up in upstate new york the storm was very anti-climactic. I woke up this morning to grey skies, no rain. There were some strong gusts of wind, but nothing powerful. It only started raining at around 12. Light rain too. |

in the place where i live there are typhoons occasionally, especially in summer... much rain and strong wind. but i guess it's considerably less destructive than that isabella. |

I was wondering if Typhoons and hurricanes are the same phenomenae. |

i guess not... typhoon (meaning something like 'high water', probably in Chinese) brings more rain than wind, and with a hurricane it's vice versa... but again, i'm not quite sure of that. |

typhoon = hurricane in the pacific ocean (same thing, different part of the world, different name) |
