Atlantinc Hurricane Season Starts Today

01 Jun 2009 leave comment 130 words

The Atlantic Hurricane Season officially starts today. With “officially”, off course I mean the period of year where experts see an increase in climatological activity in the Atlantic Basin.

For the good order, I would like to emphasize that Aruba doesn’t have a record of hurricane related storms. This island is located outside the typical hurricane areas. However, our simple presence in the Caribbean makes us a target – an unlikely target at that.

I’ve written many posts about storms in the past and will continue to do so whenever there’s one in our broad area. If you would like to know what happened in the past, please feel free browse through the history of this site by clicking on the “weather” or “hurricanes” links.
