Look out Florida – and elsewhere – for more hurricanes

Tropical Storm Hanna could graze your east coast as a Cat 1 hurricane tomorrow, followed by Tropical Depression 9 hitting hurricane status east of the Bahamas by early Thursday.

Hurricane experts agree that the hurricane pot is ripe for boiling:
“Normally in an active season, there are bunches of hurricanes and lulls. It just doesn't seem like there's been bunches of lulls. I sure hope we’re not talking (hurricanes) Christmas Eve,” said meteorology professor Hugh Willoughby at Florida International University.

Experts expect five named storms, four of them hurricanes, for September
