Long time no post!\u00a0 Some of you even sent me emails asking why I had not posted ina\u00a0 while.\u00a0 Thanks for worring about me. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Hurricane season is also back unfortunately. June 1 – November 30 for those of you who are not familiar with this period of the year. Interestingly, the “statistical peak” of the hurricane season is around september 10th.\u00a0\u00a0 Makes sence ; we had Ivan (2004) on Sept 11th, Dean late august (2007), Gustav late august\u00a0(2008), etc.<\/p>\n

Those that want to follow the hurricane closely, I highly recommend the following websites. Once a hurricane is forecasted to come near\/close to Cayman, these sites are the ones I see on the computer screens of all my co-workers when I walk down the corridor.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.weatherunderground.com\/tropical<\/a><\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.nhc.noaa.gov<\/a><\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.stormpulse.com<\/a> (collects data from the above site, but very neat interface)<\/p>\n

Absolutely nothing on the horizon right now; lets hope it stays that way.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The “gurus” of Colorado State University predict\u00a0 11 named storms (Basically Tropical storms or stronger)\u00a0, of which 5 will reach hurricane strength and 2 of them to be Category 3 of more (AKA\u00a0: “Major Hurricane”).\u00a0 They predict an “average” hurricane season, whatever that means.\u00a0\u00a0Lets see how it goes ; most of the time forecasters have trouble giving us accurate weather for the next day, let alone a 6-month period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
