Hurricane season in the Atlantic has been in full swing since June 1 but it＊s been a relatively mild season.
Still, the National Hurricane Center is tracking four?tropical waves that could disrupt travel in the near future.
Although the month of August is considered the most active time for a hurricane, meteorologists have identified September 10 as the peak day for the season. Hurricane Ian hit the East Coast and ravaged Southwest Florida on September 28 of last year.
An earlier than expected heat wave, which has lasted through the summer has even raised ocean temperatures to more than 100 degrees in some places.
Storms feast on warm weather. So it does not bode well for hurricanes in the Atlantic.
Three of the four systems that the NHC is tracking are rolling in from the Caribbean. Most weather observers feel that they will not make it to the United States shore. They also say it is too early to tell whether the storms will have an impact on the eastern United States.
That＊s not a comforting thought, however.
Airlines have struggled this summer with inclement weather. Thunderstorms have caused delays and cancelations, leading many to wonder what＊s going to happen in a full-blown hurricane.
People are reminded to monitor the storms themselves if the weather gets any worse.?
