#Rafael is now a #hurricane - the 11th of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season. 7 other years on record have had 11+ Atlantic hurricanes by 5 November: 1933, 1950, 1969, 1995, 2005, 2010, 2020.
Only 6 major hurricanes on record (since 1851) have been within 100 miles of tomorrow's 8am EDT forecast point for #Hurricane#Idalia. Idalia is forecast to be a major hurricane by then. The most recent of the six is Elena (1985), although it ended up making landfall in MS.
@AnneWheaton When I get a new pair of glasses I usually leave the old ones in the glove compartment as a back up just in case I forget or, more likely that I break my current prescription.
@mattlanza My weather station recorded a 55.4° drop. Well it is temporary early sitting on my balcony of my fourth floor apartment building until I can get a more permanent placement for it. https://t.co/myW4ZXJKEe
