S is for...

...Someone procrastinating on doing this list.
...Storm surge: It simply water that is pushed toward the shore by the force of the winds swirling around the storm. This advancing surge combines with the normal tides to create the hurricane storm tide, which can increase the mean water level 15 feet or more. In addition, wind driven waves are superimposed on the storm tide. This rise in water level can cause severe flooding in coastal areas, particularly when the storm tide coincides with the normal high tides. Because much of the United States' densely populated Atlantic and Gulf Coast coastlines lie less than 10 feet above mean sea level, the danger from storm tides is tremendous. Storm surge also affects rivers and inland lakes, potentially increasing the area that must be evacuated.

...Stupid: how so many people act unfortunately when it comes to hurricane preparedness & having a plan of action.
...Snazzy--these special polos that get distributed to FL officials when they need to switch into "hurricane mode". man i wish i could find you a photo of this from last year...
...Something telling me we're still not done with hurricanes this year...
...*SIGH*
...Stuck: where i am in this list right now which is what took me so long to get it together. (and no Andie i do NOT know what i am doing when we get to the Greek alphabet! =P i think maybe i will turn it over to YOU at that point.)
...Stan, who was at previous points a tropical storm & a full blown hurricane but is now just a tropical depression
