Somebody might reckon that a good thing too.

It has hardly left the African coast. And already developing. If it stays on a track that takes it into FL and the Caribbean, then it has warm sea water all the way. If it does not divert, this will be the next hurricane.

Last year, numerous storms took a southern track that sometimes even landed on some South American coasts. This year the Gulf of Mexico has been boiling ripe for a good hurricane. But tracks for hurricanes and tropical depressions have been taking a right turn. Colin went just west of Bermuda.

The first picture (24 Aug) shows Danielle. The second picture (28 Aug) shows Danielle after taking a right turn and approaching Bermuda.

However Earl is tracking farther south and predicted to head for the American east coast. Time to pay attention. What will probably be Fiona is already forming behind Earl on a same track.

As shattered Danielle drifts slowly towards the UK, a chain of storms has lined up in her path.

Earl and Fiona as predicted. Gaston and what may be Hermine are right behind.

Outer cloud bands of Earl are making it very overcast here, but no rain, and no wind.
