Hurricane Season Picking Up?
Written by Awkward Situations on Monday, August 13, 2007HURRICANE SEASON HEATING UP
The tropics are heating up as the August heat wave continues across much of the eastern U.S. The AccuWeather.com Hurricane Center is closely monitoring a newly-formed tropical depression and two tropical waves in the Atlantic Basin, while Hurricane Flossie is headed toward the Hawaiian Islands. The Hurricane Center reports a tropical wave that last Friday moved off the coast of Africa has been upgraded to Tropical Depression 4.
The Hurricane Center meteorologists feel TD-4 has the potential to develop into the first Atlantic hurricane of the 2007 season. At 11 a.m. EDT, Tropical Depression 4 was located approximately 520 miles west-southwest of Cape Verde Island, moving west at near 21 mph. Maximum sustained winds were near 35 mph; however, the depression is expected to continue strengthening.

Well if hurricane season is kicking up again, looks like we gotta batten down the hacthes and pretend we are not going to get hit like the good ole' floridian's. (Kidding, Florida residents, kidding.) Anyways lets hope this isn't a destructive year. God Bless.
