Well we're in the peak of hurricane season and now there's a new one named Lee swirling about in the Atlantic. However, TD 15 is much closer to home and is forecast to become a hurricane really soon with a track that kind of mirrors Irma.

Is it too early to begin predicting where this storm will go? Why not get in on the action at the ground level and hedge your bets now before someone else claims them first.

Our country is FUBAR. You idiots have to politicize everything. Maria is a product of nature. It doesn't give a rat's ass what letter comes after your name; what religious affiliation you have, or lack thereof; your ethnicity, sexual preference, gender of choice; your stance on anthropogenic climate change; what have you. The storm will go where it will based on a myriad of oceanographic and atmospheric conditions. Hoping it goes somewhere to punish a group of people that you don't like is malevolent.

Looks like the storm might not hit much based on the prediction models, but we shall see....

Jose's second loop may leave an opening for Maria to go out to sea (OTS).
Although it would have already smashed Puerto Rico by then.

Please stay on topic.:D Maria will still pass over some of the most devastated areas that Irma left in her wake.

We are all going to be paying for these storms. And, as they get stronger, deadlier and cause more destruction due to GLOBAL WARMING, we are all going to pay. In a HUGE way.

What evidence is there to support that other than the blatherings of morons? Storms are not getting stronger or deadlier and the only reason they're causing more damage is inflation. This has been a crazy two months, but over the last five years or so hurricanes have been few and far between. The leftie idiots just re-invent the narrative to support their agenda no matter what is happening. If hurricanes are smaller than average or fewer than average the earth huggers spin the statistics to "it's building, it's coming, we're causing this!!". And then when inevitably one or two hit its "SEE!! The sky is falling! We told you so!!" It's great how both stronger hurricanes and weaker ones, more frequent and more scarce can all be signs of impending doom.

There's nothing to suggest that hurricanes are getting stronger or deadlier. No real world data shows it. All the lefties have are computer simulations where they control the variables and they keep changing parameters until maybe by 2100 storms are stronger and more dangerous if 1000 different dominoes all topple exactly the right way. There's better evidence to suggest that hurricanes are cyclical like sunspots where they wax and wane, strengthen and weaken on a natural basis without any input from us.

"My own research, cited in a recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, found that during the past half-century tropical storms and hurricanes have not shown an upward trend in frequency or accumulated energy. Instead they remain naturally variable from year-to-year. The global prevalence of the most intense storms (Category 4 and 5) has not shown a significant upward trend either. Historical observations of extreme cyclones in the 1980s, especially in the Southern Hemisphere, are in sore need of reanalysis."
..............................
The historical record books contain dozens of devastating hurricane landfalls over the past century, any of which, if repeated, would be catastrophic regardless of additional climate-change effects. To prepare for the next hurricane, the U.S. needs the best weather forecasts, evacuation plans and leadership. These plans should be built on sound science, not speculation, overselling or exaggeration. Hurricane science in this political climate already has enough spin.
