    It isn't June 1 quite yet, but there is a 10% chance of a tropical storm forming off the SE US coast http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/.

    It was a 30% chance yesterday. The thing, which was never much to begin with, is weakening.

      Re: 2010 Atlantic Hurricane Season

      I just hope we dont get any hurricanes in the gulf where the oil spill is. That would be a huge ecological disaster!
      Beyond that, I hope everyone on the east coast stays safe if there are hurricanes. I work in the generator industry, so for me hurricanes are good news because they mean more money in my pocket (overtime) but I feel for people who live on the coast and lose everything in a hurricane.
      As we say in the industry, we like storms that knock out power but dont knock down buildings or cause loss of life.

        50% chance of a hurricane hitting the northeast according to a local weather panic maker, I mean weatherman.

          I can see a storm hitting the GOM this year, maybe two. Plus, it should be a hyperactive season with near record temps in the atlantic and the colapse of el nino. The eddy that is about to break off in the GOM could cause a storm to intensify like what we saw with Katrina and Rita if a storm follows a similar path. It's just not a good omen for this hurricane season.

To put it another way, if MNS ever gets any, he'll appreciate the experience on a far deeper level than the rest of us did when it was our first time, simply because he's gone far longer and failed far more than we ever did.

              That would be good news for me, but really bad news for anyone in the path of those storms.

                A hurricane could also disperse the oil out of plumes as well. Which may help.

                  I suspect that they dont really know exactly what would happen if a hurricane passed over the oil spill, considering that I dont think its ever happened before.

                    Really? There must have been plenty of small gulf spills before. Also, you figure they have to model contingencies when they apply for safety permits. BTW, who regulates building a rig in international waters? (The answer is probably not going to be good.)

                      I could be mistaken, but Im not aware of an instance where a hurricane passed over a major oil spill.

                              The shear killed it. Even with the ridiculously warm waters out there, it's tough to get a storm to form that far out in the Atlantic this early in the season.

                              Speaking of water temps, apparently oil makes the gulf water even warmer. I've never seen 96-degree water in the Gulf before: *****http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/show_plot.php?station=42040&meas=wtmp&uom=E&time_diff=-5&time_label=CDT******
