Another Hurricane Possibly??

Another Hurricane?

Today is the first day of Autumn. Many think that since this is the days of golden autumn that we have passed out of the window of hurricane danger. Well I can appreciate the thought that now there is little threat to having a hurricane. Perhaps but according to the article below we may or may not have another threat. So folks we are not out of the woods yet. Hurricane season is STILL HERE
No after what occurs in the weather, isn’t it better to be prepared? If we are ready for the hurricanes that come our way then we will be ready for many other forms of disasters that occur on a regular basis.

Something to think about. Check out a good article on weatherblog (see below).

Storm near Yucatan taking shape
http://weatherblog.abc13.com/2007/09/storm-near-yuca.html?cid=83778579#comments

The National Hurricane Center has started running hurricane models on the storm in the Yucatan now. Early output shows what our exclusive FutureTrack showed yesterday. The system will move across the Peninsula tonight and could develop into a tropical storm on Sunday. There is still a possibility this storm could become a hurricane on Monday because wind shear is light and water temps in the Gulf are in the mid 80s. Depending on the speed of the storm it could be approaching the Texas/Louisiana coast late Monday or early Tuesday. If this thing does develop however, watches and warnings could go up late Sunday.
It looks like the storm will be moving pretty fast which means two things. (1) The fast movement limits the amount of time over warm water which in theory should keep it from strengthening. Then again, Felix and Dean were moving 20 mph and both of them developed into Category 5 storms. So much for that theory. (2) More importantly perhaps, the fast movement limits our response time.
Let's be clear. This storm might not develop at all. We could end up with heavy rain or sunshine depending on what develops or where it tracks. It's like that with every tropical system.
