Poor Mexico
Already battered by one hurricane this month, I feel very sorry for that whole country. If you check your weather maps, you'll see she's up to get a one-two punch from 2 more hurricanes at the same time. Henriette on the west coast is poised to smack up Baja, and the already category 5 Felix is just about to run aground, alas, not on Mexican soil, but damn well close enough in Honduras. South America is pwned.
Global warming? Sorry, don't believe in that phrase anymore. Climate change? Yea, that's the ticket.
Not to say we're all escaping from this. A wee little category 1 typhoon, good ol' Fitow, is just spinning it's way towards Japan at the moment. Looks like we'll get a drencher come Thursday. I'll keep you all posted. Should be, uh, fun?
I'm still not sure how to properly pronounce the name, though. fee-tao? fitOH? I wonder where the name originated ...
