While it is very important to pay attention to your local weather news and blow off potential nonsensical myths, I suppose this may be something for people in the western area of Europe to keep an eye on -
Apparently there's a tropical storm headed towards the U. S. in the Atlantic Ocean right now, but it is quite a ways off at this time.
However, on the website Intellicast, one of the six computer models of its track has the storm making a hard right turn at Bermuda and heading your way.
That's a long, long, long term forecast, and there's only a seventeen percent chance at best (last I heard, on a perfectly sunny day there is a twenty percent chance of rain), so it's really outrageously unlikely. Plus the majority of the computer models show the storm failing to even make it halfway between Bermuda and the east coast of the U. S. But it has actually happened once since I've been a member of CTN, so I thought I might give you a heads up.
I got that data from here:
Intellicast - Weather Active Map
(As usual, open that link at your own peril.)
(Zoom out to the max setting, and then select the active model track from the layers menu to see for yourself.)
I've been using Intellecast for local radar display for a while, as the National Weather Service radar display has occasionally been unreliable during severe weather out here on the periphery.
