Dear WeatherCat tropical disturbance watchers,
Those of you who were "staying tuned" might have noticed that the "disturbance" (official lingo) with a greater than 70% chance of becoming a hurricane eventually became hurricane Ophelia. Considering that Ophelia is Hamlet's
"girlfriend" in the Shakespeare play, perhaps it isn't too much of a surprise that this hurricane is now headed toward that general location. According to the current
National Hurricane Center prediction, Ireland appears to be facing
hurricane force winds on Monday. By Tuesday, even our fearless leader Stu might have more rain and wind than his weather instruments have encountered in a long while. Stu might even have some new records for WeatherCat to chalk up.
So which of you on
da' other side of da' pond is in harm's way of Ophelia?
Never a dull moment in
WeatherCatLand! . . . . .
Cheers, Edouard
