| Cindy heading for Louisiana; Dennis could be next |
| 2005-07-05 |
| People living along the coast of Louisiana have been warned that tropical storm Cindy could hit land by Tuesday night. The storm system is not expected to strengthen into a hurricane, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said. As of 5 a.m. EDT Tuesday, Cindy's winds were measured at 65 kilometres per hour. The storm was located about 400 kilometres south-southwest of where the Mississippi River empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Forecasters were also keeping an eye on a tropical depression in the southern Caribbean that could develop into the fourth named weather system of the 2005 Atlantic season. Located about 650 kilometres south of Puerto Rico, the storm will be called Dennis if it strengthens as predicted Tuesday evening. |

| #5 if gunga Dan had been left tied to that palm in Galveston Can you do that without filing an environmental impact statement? Besides, where are you going to find a palm tree below the high tide line? Don't Mess with Texas! |

| #3 Worse. Dan Rather got his big start as a tropical weather reporter, and everytime it looks like New Orleans is going to get blown off the face up the earth, he shows back up like a multi-resistant STD. |
