Just in time for Noel, though it looks as though it’s going to curve around and miss us. Actually, though, if it remains just a tropical storm, I wish it would come up and cross the lake, which is still five feet below normal after they drained it last year for the hurricanes that didn’t happen.

So much for the dire hurricane predictions for this year, and the notion that global warming means that they’ll be bigger and more frequent, and that it’s already happening. So far, it’s 2004-2005 that look anomalous.
