It may happen that by later today, Tropical Storm Chris will mature and become the first named Hurricane of 2006… Hurricane Chris!
I’m not sure if I prefer for Chris to be a big and strong hurricane, or for it not to amount to much. I guess the latter. I’m sure all of the Katrinas in the world would prefer not to have had their name attached to last year’s devastating storm.
UPDATE: OK, so Chris petered out… never even made it to Hurricane strength. Nice storm.
