The Atlantic hurricane season is finally getting more active, with a new Tropical Depression formed in the Eastern Atlantic. Model projections have this storm strengthening into Tropical Storm, then Hurricane Dean - possibly reaching category 4 strength by this coming Saturday in the area of SXM!

Where is hurricane Flossie? We kept getting a weather warning on the ship about it. Of course, we also got a weather warning for Washington DC

Come to think of it, if I was getting a weather warning while I was on a boat, the last thing I would be doing was asking on the JP forums where it was...

The captains knew it posed no danger to us, but it was the first time I had heard of it.
