This is an image from satellite of Hurricane Matthew showing an infared view.. You do not have to look close to see the now imfamous skull shape that the Internet has been buzzing about for the past 24 hours..
Even Snopes has a page already (http://ift.tt/2dqXDUv).. And yes, the image is true to form. There was a brief moment in which a skull-looking snap was visible.. with a frightening eye looking towards the West.. Which could be the East Coast..
The damage in Haiti and Cuba and the Bahamas will be large in its extent.. and most likley the East Coast as well…

The model runs for Hurricane Matthew and NOW NICOLE are getting wild wild wild… Where THEY WILL GO now nobody knows..
The entire coast line needs to watch these storm…
Could they intertwine …?

A much needed read for anyone on the East Coast can be found Weatherboy Weather.. Just about the entire coast line still needs to be on alert ..
The horror of drug use ...
This is an AP dispatch from yesterday … dateline McKeesport Pennsylvania. Small town and rural America is being ravaged by heroin.. Pennsylvania is one of the hardest hit states.. (My local area, well East of McKeesport, is exceptionally awful)…
The AP news alert for your reading:
MCKEESPORT, Pa. — Two adults have been found dead of suspected drug overdoses after their 7-year-old daughter told school officials in Pennsylvania she couldn’t wake them up.
The Allegheny County medical examiner says the bodies of 26-year-old Christopher Dilly and 25-year-old Jessica Lally were found Monday evening in their McKeesport apartment.
Authorities say a 9-month-old girl, 3-year-old boy and 5-year-old boy who were inside the home were taken to a hospital to be evaluated.
HURRICANE MATTHEW POISED FOR AMERICAN VISIT -- GOVERNORS OF MULTIPLE STATES BEGIN PREPPING CITIZENS FOR DANEROUS STORM
It struck Haiti as a Cat 4… it was briefly a category 5.. there is a chance that when it dances with the East Coast of the United States it will still be a strong 3 .. I fear the ocean waters are warm enough that–if the eyewall stays off shore–it could even tick back to a category 4 or stronger..
From the AP:
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley said state officials would reverse lanes on major evacuation routes in South Carolina. It would be the first major evacuation since Hurricane Floyd in 1999, when the governor at the time didn’t reverse the lanes and Interstate 26 became a parking lot. A typically two-hour drive from Charleston to Columbia turned into a 24-hour nightmare…
Exclusive - Yahoo secretly scanned customer emails for U.S. intelligence according to sources
Reuters was unable to determine what data Yahoo may have handed over, if any, and if intelligence officials had approached other email providers besides Yahoo with this kind of request.
According to two of the former employees, Yahoo Chief Executive Marissa Mayer’s decision to obey the directive roiled some senior executives and led to the June 2015 departure of Chief Information Security Officer Alex Stamos, who now holds the top security job at Facebook Inc .
Mayer bought Tumblr too.. I would suppose messages on Tumblr would eventually be known to be in the same boat?
Hurricane Matthew: US evacuations begin ahead of storm
Forecasters predict a Category 4 hurricane will brush up against the East Coast – including Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina – sometime between Thursday evening and Saturday.
Gridlock is massive in South Carolina .. North Carolina tourists have been sent home .. Florida is worried about a direct hit .. And forecasters are warning that their models may not be precise and longer range outlooks could change..
All up on the air. Including a massive and deadline hurricane that undoubtedly just destroyed structures and lives in Haiti and the Bahamas ..
Chris Cillizza from the Washington Post names the winners and...
And while I didn’t watch it, the common denominator I’m hearing from friends and pundits was that Kaine seemed edgy and weird and the entire spectacle became unwatchable quickly ..
Cillizza seems to also concur with that assessment ..
Thunderstorms on the edge of space may be causing loss of GPS signals!
Scientists were left puzzled about why the three satellites launched by the European Space Agency have regularly lost their navigation signal when passing over the equator above the Atlantic Ocean.
Now they believe they may have uncovered the underlying cause of the strange loss in the GPS signal that helps control the satellites – thunderstorms high in the ionosphere.

Computer models beginning to converge on a Southeast United States hit after Matthew gets done rampaging Haiti and other areas south of Florida ..
Small town clown mania!!!
More local news from my personal Homefront of Pennsylvania .. The clown phenomenon (that probably isn’t even happening besides in imaginations) is causing the PA state police to issue w warning!
::. But they also admit none of the widespread reports of clowns in the state have been validated..
A number of clown related social media posts were displayed this past weekend regarding threats towards school districts in Pennsylvania and throughout the country. Some threats stated that a clown would arrive at the school and “shoot all students and teachers,” while another threat stated they “weren’t clowning around.” Most of the social media posts were attributed to a “clown joke,” possibly linked to numerous clown sightings throughout the nation and the world.
These sightings have not been validated and there are no known threats to schools in Pennsylvania. Residents are encouraged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to their closest police department.
Over the last few months, “creepy clowns” have been reported throughout the United States and the world. The media has reported incidents where clowns have stood on the street not moving or speaking, to incidents where creepy clowns attempted to lure children into wooded areas. These sightings have occurred in Wisconsin, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Florida, Ohio, Tennessee, Missouri, Colorado, Oregon, and Texas.
They go on to give information on how to contact the police should clowns attack..
Hurricane hell on earth
This is a monster .. It struck Haiti dead on.. The disaster is slowly churning with 145 mile per hour winds..
The east coast of the United States could be in the crosshairs..
May god bless those already dealing with hurricane Matthew and those will have yet to experience him..
The name could be retired of the storm continues at this pace ..
Hurricane Matthew hammers Haiti, moves out to sea toward ...
Haiti has taken a direct hit… May god have mercy on them..

LOVE IS BEING LOST: Poll: 7 Percent Of Voters Have Lost Friends Over 2016 Presidential Race
37 percent said the harsh language is coming from Trump’s campaign, while 11 percent thought it was coming from Clinton’s.
The poll surveyed 802 registered voters between Sept. 22 and 25 with a 3.5 percentage point margin of error..
It is not a shock poll to me.. I have actually seen friendships changed this year with this election – people who were cordial and friendly have gone into a friendship hibernation. Hopefully after the November election (when presumably SOMEONE wins?) will this all will subside.. and friendships will blossom again. Unless the election itself becomes even more divisive by then. And maybe if a repeat of 2000 happens–My God just imagine that ..
So I am curious.. did you lose friends because of this election..? Did YOU break friendships off?
