Again?
Seems the Americas are having an excellent time of it this Autumn (Fall), check out this update on Hurricane Wilma, which has just been upgraded to a cat 5 storm (yes, another one). Not just that, it’s apparently the strongest hurricane ever recorded.
Not that it was anywhere near as catastrophic (in fact I feel bad making this connection at all), but I wonder if there’s any relation between it being the worst snow season in Whistler since 1969 (I think), and the number of hurricanes this year (taken from the above article):
“The storm is the record-tying 12th hurricane of the season, the same number reached in 1969.”
Edit: Actually that’s probably complete bollocks, but who knows. Maybe the cyclical weather idea applies.
For those concerned, I hope the storm doesn’t wreak the same kind of devastation that Katrina did.. Apparently my Auntie & Uncle are off to Florida this weekend, crazy fools :)
