Leading the way on Drudge this morning is this article from the Tampa Tribune website.
Basically, it seems like there was a bit of crow eating from a number of forecasters, with a copious sprinkling of “dry Saharan dust.” Seems that this dust may have taken some of the oomph out of any prospective tropical storms/hurricanes, leaving us with a very quiet season this year.
Whatever the cause, I can’t say that a quiet hurricane season is anything other than a good thing. I’m personally quite glad that Brendan hasn’t had that much foul weather about which to go all geeky.

I blame it on La Nina.

Actually it was El Nino…

I blame Global Warming, The Bush Administration, FEMA, and (most of all) The Man!

Oh yeah, and Canada. Always put the blame on Canada.
