It's official now. Hurricane Dean continues to churn in the Carribbean this morning, and visible Satellite imagery showed a much more organized storm compared to yesterday, and much bigger for that matter. In fact, in the picture below, you can see an eye clearly forming now.

The track continues to show an impact on the Yucutan Peninsula, however, anything can happen in 5 days.

Now, Chattanooga will continue to "bake" today, and yesterday we set a record of 103 degrees for the date! 103. Today looks to climb above 100 degrees as well, which will mark the third time this summer to do so...which, interestingly enough, even for Chattanooga standards is rare. We may see some storms finally begin to fire up early next week, but with a drought like we have, don't get your hopes up. Update later...

BTW: I've just changed some options, so ANYONE can comment now!! You have a question? Leave a comment! It's that easy...looking forward to hearing from you.

Yeah, I am really tired of this heat too...fall is only 36 days away fortunately. And you never know, they say La Nina is coming this winter, but history shows that record warm winters are often times followed by cold winters, so we'll see.

And thanks! :-)
