Oh goodness, this is starting to feel like a movie.

Will await our weather expert's comments and opinions, I truly hope this is not as devastating as the others have been.

looks like its hit Depression status, thats Beta, and dissipating.

Anybody seen that movie The Day After Tomorrow? Well um look outside your window...

If it became a named storm it would be Zeta not Beta. There are only 21 alphabetical names used, then they switch to the Greek alphabet.

I believe we are already into the Roman numerals. Last storm was Alpha wasn't? I could be wrong, its hard to keep track anymore.

I breathlessly await the media coverage of the historical even. Global warming balh, blah, blah,..............zillions killed, blah, blah, blah..............
Levies break yet again.......blah, blah, blah..............

GWB's fault, blah, blah, balh............Fema sucks............balh, blah, balh

Did I miss anything??????????????????

Someone predicted a third major hit before the year ends.

The 2005 Atlantic hurricane season has shattered many long-standing records, chief among them a record number of named storms (23), requiring the use of the Greek alphabet for the last two storms. There have also been (13) hurricanes so far this season breaking the old record of 12 set in 1969. Another record set was for the most category five hurricanes (3) in a season with Katrina, Rita, and Wilma. Wilma would become the strongest hurricane on record in the Atlantic Basin with a pressure of 882 mb breaking the old record held by Gilbert set in 1988 with a pressure of 888 mb. The landfall of (4) major hurricanes on the U.S. set a record. Also, the final tally for damage will go on to show that this season was the most costly in U.S. History breaking the terrible season of 2004 with 45 billion in damage just recently set last year.

Interesting to note that its only one more storm than in 1969, but still a crazy season nonetheless.
