Answer to the Weather Quiz question from August 20.
True. Although only a hurricane for a short period
of time, Danny became the first “major” hurricane of 2015 when it attained
Category 3 status last week. Fred was recently upgraded to a minimal hurricane in the eastern Atlantic Ocean becoming the second hurricane of 2015. However, Fred isn't expected to grow into a major hurricane.

ReplyDeleteC. September. You guys are pretty good. September is the busiest month on average but the season goes through the end of November. In fact, there have been some memorable hurricanes in November like Gordon in 1994 and Lenny in 1999. Check out my new "Quiz" question.
