Maybe this will convince GW Bush that global warming is real .
Why cant we extract the energy from this hot water before it becomes a
hurrican Uncle Al kind of otec way ?
The hurricane could threaten Florida, but it was too early to tell,
Eric Blake, a meteorologist at the U.S. National Hurricane Center in
Miami, said. A reconnaissance plane would be measuring the storm later
Monday. Residents of Florida and the Caribbean are recovering from
hurricanes Charley and Frances.
A hurricane watch was issued for Barbados, an island of 280,000, as
well as for St. Lucia and Martinique. A tropical storm watch was
issued for Grenada and Trinidad and Tobago.
"We expect it to maintain its strength but it's a smaller storm
compared to Frances, so the eye would have to pass directly over some
of these islands to cause extensive damage," Blake said.
Ivan weakened Monday, with winds slowing slightly from an earlier 125
mph. But it maintained its Category 3 strength. Forecasters said Ivan
could regain force by the time it reaches the Windward Islands.
At 2 p.m., Ivan's center was about 360 miles east-southeast of
Barbados, moving west at around 22 mph. Hurricane force winds extend
outward up to 35 miles from Ivan's center while tropical storm force
winds extend outward up to 140 miles.
