John, I'm sure you're going to love it when November 30 comes. And Illinois might get the remnants within 3 days.
Anyway, the tornado watch has been extended to Alabama.
As of 9:10 EST, Dennis is now a tropical storm, meaning winds have decreased to lower than 73 mph.

Ok, so far Dennis, has became a tropical depression, but now I have found out that we have another one just formed out in the atlantic ocean. It will now take a week to arrive close to peninsula Florida. No further other information yet, but stay tuned.

The guys on The Weather Channel arealso concerned about two low depression systems off the coast of Africa. They also said that this year is an unusually active year for hurricanes, which is true, because most hurricanes occur in September.

Ok, just informed that Emily exists, and it is a trpoical storm. Looks like I saw the projected path that it will slam into Purto Rico, also, at Cuba again. This is very gonna sound serious about this storm, bit I have not verified the image yet, bit we are not sure if it will hit them. So stay tuned.

No kidding. In a typical year, the most hurricanes occur in September. If this is a typical year, I would by very curious to see how it does turn out in September. I do have one hunch: this year, they will have to retire at least one name.

They only retire names of hurricans that did a crap load of damage(like Floyd and Andrew)

Yeah, ok, just informed that it is now a hurricane Emily, but I saw the image that it's gonna be away from Puerto Rico and Havana. Here is a pic of it, but sadly it's gonna hit Jamica:  |

They don't necessarily have to hit the United States to have their names be retired. For example, Hurricane Mitch (1998) didn't hit the US, but the name is retired because of the massive damage it did to Honduras.

it has killed about 6 people so far (4 was a family of in a car in Jamaica that was pushed off a cliff from a surge of water and the other 2 were helicopter pilots trying to evacuate workers off an Oil Rig) but already 25,000 has taken shelter.

Um, Yoshee, there's a thing called the news.
You knowm global warming could really be a huge factor in why we are having an unusually active hurricane season. As less ozone is present in the atmosphere, more of the sun's rays are allowed in the atmosphere. This would heat up the world's oceans. And the warmer the water, usually the more powerful a hurricane. So the chlorofluorocarbons that we allow in the atmosphere could generate the worst storms in the Earth's history.
However, I don't think it would be an epidemic the UV radiation allowed would destroy an entire city, such as in The Core.
