I see a decent Hurricane is in the mid Atlantic, on track to skirt to the
North of Cuba and then turn more North Westwards- Is this a sign that our
weather will change, say in about 10 days or so - I know its still
thousands of miles away, but these storms do eventually impact on our
weather, perhaps one to keep an eye on

00:01 30Aug2003 Hurricane Fabian forms in mid-Atlantic

MIAMI, Aug 29 (Reuters) - Fabian, the third hurricane of the season,
took shape on Friday in the mid-Atlantic, heading westerly on a course
toward the Bahamas and possibly to the United States some time next week.
Forecasters at the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said
Fabian,
with winds of 75 mph (120 km), barely qualifies as a hurricane but warned
that it will likely strengthen over the next 24 hours.
Tropical storms become hurricanes when their sustained winds top 74
mph
(118 kph).
At 5 p.m. EDT (2100 GMT), Fabian's center was about 1,075 miles (1,720
km) east of the Caribbean's Lesser Antilles Islands at latitude 15.7 north
and longitude 45.2 west.
The storm was moving west at 16 mph (26 kph) on a track that would
carry
it over open ocean about 220 miles (350 km) north of Puerto Rico by
Wednesday afternoon, according to the National Hurricane Center's 5-day
forecast.
At the same time, the center cautioned its five-day forecasts carry a
good deal of uncertainty and that anyone in the northeast Caribbean should
pay close attention to updated advisories over the next few days as the
hurricane nears land.
