I get the sense that since now he's seeking assistance that is available to NHL players and has agreed to be regularly tested as part of it, that the NHL won't do anything more at this time, especially since he was pretty much guaranteed a spot on the Russian national team if he was healthy any of those 4 years, including the 2022 Olympics, and that's embarrassing enough. But if he tests positive for something anytime in the future the NHL will drop a looooong suspension on him. Of course, my speculation could turn out to be wrong.

Thanks. I looked into my attachments and I had used up more space than I thought. Kind of annoying that there’s such a relatively low limit, but oh well. It’d be nice to keep all of the attachments from during interesting events, but at some point they’ll have to go. As someone who is a bit of sentimentalist, it’s a little hard to get rid of some of them, even though deep down I know I shouldn’t care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason why is both give me 34 and rain. By the time a hurricane gets this far north it becomes cold core and makes its own cold air to drop temps.

09-10 analogy Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Main thread, as, lamentably, so often, being soured by pompous and ignorant dorks who cite their decades long experience at "tracking" as irrevocable proof that a slow moving Dorian will upwell enough water in its approach to Florida so that it will hit as at best a weak CAT 1. Never mind the best in the world in Miami, with the best tools available, now forecasting a CAT 4 landfall. But, you see, they don't have the snowflake special insight of grizzled veterans of "tracking" using NOAA weather radio and lat/long map plots back in 1979 when they were analyzing David with their state-of-the-art dart throwing. Put the blindfold on, pin the tail on Dorian, like they did with David. And Frederic. And etc. Not to knock David. It was a hell of a storm for the mid-Atlantic. One of my earliest weather memories, growing up in northern DE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 My parents live in FL. They decided to pack up and head North to my sisters in Atlanta. While they live on the West coast this storm is being so different that for all we know it could cross the entire state and re-form over the Gulf. They did not want to wait for a mandatory evacuation and get caught in traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll see if the threat is really shifting north or if this end up being a clean EC miss. Storms like this make me worry about hype fatigue. So much is made of these and getting people to stock up and prepare only for it to miss. People might not take heed next time and then we see worse things when it does hit a populated location 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
