Hurricane Season is Cranking Up
Today is the “official start” to the Hurricane Season in the US and Canada. The season runs June 1 through November 30th with the “peak” being September 10th. So, what does the season look like?
National Weather Service: They are calling for an “average” season with 12 storms including 2 larger ones. The names for this year’s storms will include: Ana, Bill, Claudette, Danny, Erika, Fred, Grace, Henri, Ida, Joaquin, Kate, Larry, Mindy, Nicholas, Odette, Peter, Rose,Sam, Teresa. Victor, Wanda.
Caleb: Our very own Caleb Weatherbee calls for a few storms as noted:
Northeast – August 16th – 19th - There may be a hurricane threat along the East coast. September 16 – 19th … hurricane threat along the coast.
Southeast – August 4 – 7th - Expect a hurricane threat, as a tropical system moves on a southeast-to-northeast trajectory and takes a swipe at the coastal plain from Bluffton, S.C. to Hateras, N.C. August 12 – 15th Hurricane threat along the Atlantic Coast. September 4 – 7th Hurricane threat along the Gulf Coast.October 1 – 3rd …. hurricane threat for the Outer Banks of N.C.

Last week I was hit by a major “bug”. It started on Memorial Day Weekend and ran all week. It was the first missed work days in 22 years and only the second illness in 36 years. You realize how wonderful friends are when they send cards, drop off “mother’s soup” and the like. It wasn’t the swine flu. But, whatever it was, I wouldn’t wish on anyone.
