Tropical Storm Collin
TS Collin – A Depressing Storm One of the first Atlantic storms this year, which at the least is not the most severe but a prelude of what is yet to come, Tropical Storm Collin manifest early June 2, 2022 morning off the coast of South Carolina, provided a few winds and rains, and is quickly weakening into a depression and finally will devolve into a cyclone as it leaves Jacksonville, North Carolina today. While this storm is not really interesting, a get in and get out storm, it is a prelude of what is to come. This summer months provide the perfect breeding grounds for stronger storms in the Atlantic, and I guarantee you, we will see more storms with more devastating destruction power. I predict, in the middle of August, we will be seeing Cat 2’s and 3 hurricanes with perhaps a Cat 4 in September. Unless news…
Tropical Storm Aere
Tropical Storm Aere Its only the end of June but we are just finding new ways to keep cool. Sure we can go to the waterpark, go to the beach, or just spray ourselves with the garden hose.

July will be the start and August will be the breaking point for all-new…

The Philippines Island may be experiencing some showers and winds, but no cause for alarm. As always, be cautious of the storms change in direction, as this can occur within hours. We will continue to monitor the situation as it unfolds.

The Big Storm Is Coming
As many of us know, hurricane season is upon us, and that means the Atlantic states will be enduring severe storms, flash floods, strong winds, rain and hail, and quite possible tornado offshoots. And with all of these hazards come the risk of extreme damage to your property and to your very life. Last year, Hurricane Ida was a heavy-hitting Category 4 hurricane that decimated Louisiana, damaged New Jersey, New York, and other Atlantic coastal states. To see an example of some of the carnage left behind in New Orleans, watch this YouTube video from the Washington Post by clicking here. As a new season begins, meteorologists, emergency managers, utility companies, and residents who live in high-risk areas should always maintain vigilance and keep track of all the hurricane and tropical storms that manifest. But why should we keep tabs on those storms that are not in our area? Simple…
