HURRICANE STUFF |
|
No one likes hurricanes, but should it happen we at the Cubby Hole are certainly prepared. First off, three generators to keep the beer cold, freezers running, music playing and the internet surfing. Bring your cell phone in and charge it here! As much as we can get our hands on food the kitchen will be open. In 2005 for Wilma the city closed all liquor down for 2 days & afterwards imposed a curfew. Of course we will strictly adhere to what they say. We know that Publix at 15th and Sunrise installed a whole building 3 phase Cat Generator, so we should be able to get food there. That includes running their freezers. Here are some links.

2008 HURRICANE NAMES For every year, there is a pre-approved list of names for tropical storms and hurricanes. These lists have been generated by the National Hurricane Center since 1953. At first, the lists consisted of only female names; however, since 1979, the lists alternate between male and female. Hurricanes are named alphabetically from the list in chronological order. Thus the first tropical storm or hurricane of the year has a name that begins with "A" and the second is given the name that begins with "B." The lists contain names that begin from A to W, but exclude names that begin with a "Q" or "U." There are six lists that continue to rotate. The lists only change when there is a hurricane that is so devastating, the name is retired and another name replaces it. 2008 Hurricane Names |
