Is This Thing On?

The Local Puppy Trainer noted today that It’s tropical weather information, not fear mongering.

Yesterday we had a couple of areas of interest in the Atlantic. As of 4PM CDT Tropical Storms Ana and Bill are heading West.

Ana looks like the weaker, and is encountering wind shear and dry air, but it’s path could put it in the Gulf which is a good deal more hospitable for development. You don’t know anything for certain this far out, but it is a good deal easier and cheaper [oh, no, stores would never jack up prices in an emergency 😈 ] to fill any gaps now, rather than waiting until the last minute.

People in hurricane areas should start watching the weather and checking supplies. Thanks to a solid El Niño condition things have been quiet, but the last time we waited this long in the season for a named storm was in 1992, and the storm was hurricane Andrew.
