Domincan Republic disturbance 93L
Not a hurricane yet

This disturbance is over the Domincan Republic and has moved away from Puerto Rico leaving a large mess to be cleaned up. Reports of 24 inches of rain fell over Puerto Rico in a 24 hour period.
Storm models are still showing that this could turn into a hurricane cat 1 or 2, we will have to wait and see what develops since this storm does not want to move.
The Latest on Hurricane Ike

Here is the latest Spaghetti Model showing where the hurricane Ike may head.Ike : Last updated : 9/8/2008 8:03:25 AM
Gas Prices on the rise around the country
From Fox Business News:
Gasoline prices jumped at the wholesale level Friday as Hurricane Ike swept through Gulf of Mexico, prompting companies along the Texas coast to shut down refining and drilling operations.
Crude oil on the futures market, however, briefly sank below the psychologically important $100-a-barrel mark for the first time since April 2 -- showing that investors believe a worsening global economy will continue to drive down demand for some time in the United States and elsewhere.
The fact that U.S. fuel demand is so weak right now might mean the recent surge in the wholesale price of gasoline -- which rose to about $4.85 a gallon in the Gulf Coast market Friday -- might not be passed along to consumers unless Ike's impact is severe and long-lasting.
"Major oil companies are sensitive to raising prices in this environment," said Ben Brockwell, director of data pricing and information services at the Oil Price Information Service.
So where is IKE going to go
According to the "Weather Channel"Extremely dangerous Category 3 Hurricane Ike with 120-mph sustained winds is moving into the northern coast of eastern Cuba.
As of 8 p.m. EDT, Ike was located about 60 miles N of Guantanamo, Cuba, and moving west at 14 mph.
Destructive Ike has moved away from the Turks and Caicos Islands and the southernmost Bahamas after a direct hit on Great Inagua Island.
At the present time it looks Florida may be out of the woods. We will have to wait and see if the weather gods show favor on us.

Hurricane Gustav Roars Over Haiti
Raw Video: Hurricane Gustav Roars Over Haiti
Forecasters say Hurricane Gustav has made landfall on Haiti's southwest peninsula. The fast-forming storm is sending global oil prices soaring on fears it could become 'extremely dangerous' as it approaches the Gulf of Mexico. (Aug. 26)

The future for 2008 storm season
Although the season has seen some strong activity already this year, the season is far from over. From what the forecasters are saying we have several other storms on the horizon in the Atlantic and they seem to have there eye set on Florida. Florida got lucky with Gustav and is in the healing stage from Fay and now we wait to see what Hanna does. Right behind Hanna is Ike starting to twist and spin farther out in the Atlantic. Off the coast of Africa there is some other storms starting to brew. So I guess the forecasters are correct it is going to be a very busy active storm season. Great Stuff on Amazon

Hi Tom, Great lens with a super layout. The weather maps brought me back to college as I was a Meteorology major. I've always found hurricanes to be the most fascinating and dynamic weather event. Thanks for sharing.
