Irma she's all over the news. I pray for the people of Puerto Rico, and for all living around.
The tropical storm following hurricane/cyclone Irma is called Jose.

God bless ...

Irma seems so far to be following a course that would have it not hitting Haiti directly .. Thing is with those nature things ... You don't know with accuracy ir might simply change course and linger somewhere ...
We, in Haiti, are bracing for the worse. We have been hit the past few years very badly. Most of those although natural could have been less devastating if we had the infrastructure and were better organized but ... We are praying, not wishing, praying whether or not one believes in any Deity, that it doesn't hit us .. I am not sure we can take any more beating from Mother Nature.

Of course, Global Warming has nothing to do with it :rolleyes:

That little guy behind Irma, I think it's Jose, the tropical storm.
It does look like a Van Gogh painting; The Starry Night.

If the ocean's level rises it creates stronger storms. I've read that from a scientific online article.

I think it's normal to experience records every single year today. The planet is slowly warming and the ice is slowly melting. We have more forest fires, the land is dryer, we have more floodings, the ocean's levels are slowly rising and the clouds are absorbing more water...brief the winds of nature are shifting slowly towards some dramatic climate changes.

I have zero clue on how much man is involved; none. It's probably not his fault, but the neighbor above.

When in distress we pray together, we cry together, we help each other.
If we could prevent disasters to happen we would; I am totally convinced about it. The human species is the most intelligent and the strongest in pure survival sheer. We are in very good hands; our very own hands.

The power of the mind is strong; it can move mountains and stop cyclones. That mind; it works best when used efficiently and intelligently.
Prayers are powers... Science is there to learn about the powers of mind's application. I've read that too from a scientific journal on man's strongest ambitions.

God bless us all, god bless you in Irma's path.
