Cyclone Gonu in Bahrain

Not a long post by any means; the thing is after Gonu hit Oman, there was a bit of uncertainity as to the path it will follow. Will it go past UAE and then turn east to Iran? Will it continue North and hit Qatar and Bahrain? Some said yes, some said no, some said maybe.

Anyway, I was discussing this with a friend a few days ago; I said "There is the possibility that Gonu will hit us".

Just a possibility, but I mentioned it was there, to which he replied "No, it won't"

Me: "There's that chance, how do you know"

Him: "I just know, there is no possible way it will hit us"

Me: "Come on, there's always a small chance of it happening, and what do you know, you don't work in the forecast"

Him: "No, you don't understand. We wont get hit because Bahrain is just THAT boring. We wont get anything as exciting as that happening here!"

Needless to say I couldn't stop laughing for the next 20 minutes
