I realize that this particular subject may mean absolutely NOTHING to anyone but me…..but there are some things that we just feel need a post….and the Hurricane system is one of those things.
So far the season has been a bit of a snooze…but that could change dramatically….as reported by the officials and the experts…..
That was the prediction Thursday from federal forecasters who warned that the remainder of what so far has been a ho-hum early season is likely to shape up as bad and busy.
A La NiƱa pattern that emerged last month combined with record temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean and a storm-friendly atmospheric environment has the potential to begin churning out storms by the bunch.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts a 70 percent chance of 14 to 20 named storms this year, including already-gone Alex and Bonnie and the remnants of Colin. Eight to 12 could become hurricanes, with four to six growing into major ones.
