Ian: “I think you should go ahead with your plans. I read in the most recent edition of the Farmer’s Almanac that this year's hurricane season is not supposed to be that dangerous.”

Julia: “I think you should postpone your trip. I checked the local 3-day weather forecast for the area, and you are scheduled to arrive the same day meteorologists predict the hurricane to make landfall.”

Kelsey: “I think you should go ahead with your plans. About three weeks ago, I watched a news report about this hurricane when it was just developing in the ocean. At the time, scientists predicted the hurricane would lose its energy before making landfall.”
