Quite frankly I don't like any method of leaving a forum. If the user doesn't want to visit anymore, fine. But his account stays in case he changes his mind in the future (and if the past is any indication, he will!).

Isn't there a way to get rid of that button?

I'm sure there probably is.

Yeah I don't take any prediction with more than a grain of salt at this point. We all know how little precision there is in hurricane forecasting. Its a minute by minute thing.

Dean has intensified a little bit. Winds are up a tad since the last advisory, and the pressure is down about 4 milliabars.

Why do they edit the music?

I think its to make the song fit into the segment better. Some songs sound a little awkard, even bad, on the LF if played right from the beginning.

Yeah I don't expect to see it strengthen much at all. In fact, I'll be surprised if it reaches Tropical Storm status.

The music guy edits them to fit into the LF flavors they will be used on. That's why when you listen to the full clip of a song you have to wait for the first minute or so before hearing the familiar part of the tune.
