HURRICANE IRENE, TS WARNING FOR COLONIAL HEIGHTS AND HURRICANE WARNING FOR THE OBX

Well after allot of speculation on where Hurricane Irene was going to make landfall it appears that the eye is going to do so somewhere just south of Cape Hatteras and will travel just to west of the OBX before going back out into the Atlantic somewhere near the VA-NC border.  With this change it appears we will just get some very heavy rain up to 4-8 inches of it and some winds around 35-45 mph here in CH, however if it moves back to the west a little bit we could get some stronger winds.  Whatever the storm does it appears the OBX is going to get the worst of it.  The Nascar Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series are both racing at Bristol this weekend, they will run the Nationwide race tonight and the Sprint Cup race tomorrow night.  The Colonial Heights football team will be scrimmaging at Amelia tonight.  So far in my football contest I have received 8 peoples picks for the 1st week.  MICKEY
