A low-pressure system about 1,425 mileseast-southeast of the eastern Caribbean Islands in the central Atlantic
Ocean had a 60 percent chance of developing into a tropical cyclone over
the next day or two.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said in a report the system was moving west-northwest at about 15 miles per hour.
Most weather models project the system will reach the eastern Caribbean islands over the next five days.
Energy traders keep a close eye on storms that could enter the Gulf of Mexico and disrupt offshore U.S. oil and naturalgas production or refinery operations along the coast, as well as the
cleanup of the Gulf oil spill.
Commodities traders likewise watch storms that could damage agriculture crops such as citrus and cotton in Florida and other states along the coast to Texas.

I'm positive everyone that reads this hopes it wont develop into the first hurricane of the season, but we all know we will eventually have one. As for the oil in the gulf, I know this will cause 10 times more havoc than is already there.
We need to act NOW using the 'oil eating' microbes that were used in the Exxon-Valdez spill.
It will turn the gulf from an environmental meltdown back into a blue playground for our friends. The microbes consumes the oil producing biodegradable waste that is non-toxic to humans and marine life......no side effects. period.
Within 6 weeks the gulf and the beaches could be in pristine condition, yet again.
Peace and love to all, Namaste
