The Atlantic's third storm has formed in record time, and it's a threat:
Last year's Atlantic hurricane season ranked among the top five most-active years on record. Its third named storm, Chantal, did not form until August 20.
By contrast, today is June 2, and the Atlantic's third named storm of the year just formed. [...]
This is the earliest ever in the Atlantic season (which, however imperfect, has records dating back to 1851) that the third named storm has formed in a given year. The previous earliest "C" storm was Colin, on June 5, 2016.
[...] The storm is trapped within a large oceanic circulation, known as a gyre, and high pressure over the northern Gulf of Mexico is also inhibiting its motion. As a result, Cristobal will probably wobble around the Bay of Campeche until at least Friday. This will cause torrential rainfall in Southern Mexico and parts of Central America this week.
[...] The bottom line is that a tropical system is likely to be in the Gulf of Mexico late this week, bound for the United States, over waters warm enough to sustain intensification. The time for preparations is definitely now.

:-) Nice try. Financial markets are robbing us of everything. Well, not really "robbing", it's being given to them by elected officials.
Ah, but they will, always, when there is nothing to finance the dictator. Bullets cost money
