Your point would have been better if you had used actual before and
after pictures. If you check the name on each picture you will find that
they are the same exact file. Nice try...

Not sure what Charlie's point is -- the Dennis hurricane historical
map doesn't show it anywhere close to Union, Mississippi...

That's crap John....provide a link that shows the track "nowhere near". We
were under a Inland Hurricane" warning from 5PM last night. Maybe your
cartographer skills are a little rusty.

Looks like it was hitting Mississippi up around Columbus, and heading
North from you...

How high did your winds get ... in Union?

Bob,
The storm was not a pinpoint single line width across the map but over 3 0 0
m i l e s wide. I did not measure the "winds in Union". If they were not
high enough for you then maybe better luck next time.

According to the storm category indications on the map at

http://www.wunderground.com/tropical.../at200504.html

"Hurricane Dennis" was actually a "tropical depression" before it ever
crossed into Mississippi, some distance north of Union.

Charlie, I would never wish high winds upon anyone, but before you
brag about riding out a Category 4 Hurricane, you should be a little
more accurate in your terminology :-)

Have a good one...

President Bush has authorized "Disaster Relief Funds" for 38 counties in
Mississippi including my county of Newton.

You cartographer skills as well as your meteorological powers of analysis
leave a lot to be desired.

Have a nice day.....sorry my tower did not collapse and that no one in my
family was killed. Maybe next time..eh?

Yep, those tropical depressions can be rough -- let us know next time
it rains in Union -- we'll want to see "before & after" pics of your
tower.

NOT FOR DISASTER RELIEF FUNDS but Federal assistance for Debris Removal
and Emergency services ... NOT A DISASTER AREA. Nice Exaggeration!

Additionally, Brown said the state and affected local governments in 23
counties are eligible to apply for federal funds to pay 100 percent of
the approved costs for debris removal and emergency services related to
the hurricane, including requested emergency work undertaken by the
federal government, for a period of up to 72 hours.

The 23 counties designated eligible for the assistance include Clarke,
Covington, Forrest, George, Greene, Hancock, Harrison, Jackson,
Jefferson Davis, Jones, Kemper, Lamar, Lauderdale, Lowndes, Marion,
Neshoba, Newton, Noxubee, Pearl River, Perry, Smith, Stone, and Walthall.

It may not reached that area but it was a large storm so you could get
dmaging winds hundreds of miles from where the hurricane hit. While it
looks like the pictures don't show damage, it could be further down.

Good God Almighty.....

What will it take to satisfy you folks? How about free airfare to
Mississippi and a personal inspection of my station? For Pete's sake!!!!!
