I hadn't realised that it was so long since we had an (Atlantic?) hurricane in June. The Americans have a strange way of using the language that we theoretically share. :) For a moment I thought that a hurricane had been named "Alex Tuesday". -- John Hall "I don't even butter my bread; I consider that cooking."

This is some 28mb deeper than the June 1995 hurricane ("Allison"). Perhaps it is this aspect that should get the experts reaching for the record books. When was the last time (if at all) such low pressure was recorded in the North Atlantic basin in association with a June named system? Nigel |

Nigel Can't believe it's time for an "Alex" again already. The system which developed from the last "Alex", in 2004, was notable over here for seemingly barging into an established hot spell and setting up the pattern which led to the warm wet August of that year. Doesn't look like this "Alex" is on the same path as that one though... Nick |

Oh, please! Weather does not cause weather any more that statistics from 30 to 60 years ago does. SO why not try using your god given thinkbox? A series of similar set-ups has a... what? cause. I think some of the stiffs on here aught to be lined up somewhere publicly and ritually abused with long rods as an example for the rest. |

As Nick pointed out very clearly for anyone with a brain, the *only* similarities are in the fact that it is an early Atlantic hurricane and in the name. The cause of the name is the person who named it. Perhaps take you difficulties up with him/her? You must have missed the bit that said; ".....Doesn't look like this "Alex" is on the same path as that one". Understandable. PS At least we could all die laughing at you W. |
