    Yes, thats true, but from what I hear it is still erupting at the minute and it is not known when it will stop. I also heard that the last time it erupted it did so for 20 years.

    I say 'from what I hear' as it doesn't really hold my interest as I have no trips planned, so therefore I'm not keeping up with it all.

    Let's hope we get hit by a couple this year. Would be great to experience a storm like Debbie that hit in the 60's.

    June is usually a quiet month for tropical storms/hurricanes. Chances are we won't see a named storm till the second half of the month.

    That formed in the pacific so its not part of the atlantic hurricane season.

    The ECM has a storm centred over the oil leak next week:o May not happen but sooner or later all that oil is going to be washed ashore by a hurricane.

  • Registered Users Posts: 11,134 ✭✭✭✭maquiladora


    Serious looking storm but thats a long way off, chances are it won't come to pass, but worth keeping an eye on to see if the ECM has picked up on something.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,134 ✭✭✭✭maquiladora


    Other models picking up on it now. NHC says 50% chance of TC within the next 48 hours.

    I find this website very good for following hurricanes in the atlantic and pacific

    The nhc has got a 60 percent chance of a tropical storm to hit the Yucatan peninsula in the next48hrs. Could that storm track north into the oily gulf after it hits Yucatan?

    The first tropical depression of the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season appears imminent in the Western Caribbean, as the areal coverage and intensity of heavy thunderstorm activity associated with the tropical wave (Invest 93L) continue to increase. The storm has developed a surface circulation near 16.5N, 82.5W at 8am EDT, about 100 miles northeast of the Nicaragua/Honduras border. This is far enough from land that development will be slowed only slightly.

    Invest 95 is after picking up dramatically and could develop into a tropical depression soon enough.

    Looks like Bonnie will follow a very similar path that Alex took. This could cause some serious flooding.
