Nearly two weeks after forming, Bertha is STILL a tropical storm – AND, could STILL be at tropical storm strength when it hits Iceland.
Has Iceland ever been hit by an officially designated tropical storm before?
Bertha has already set a record as the longest-lived July hurricane on record, as well as the longest-lived July tropical storm and the farthest-east forming one.
Meanwhile, even though the eastern equatorial Atlantic isn’t quite as warm this year as it was in 2005, tropical storm activity is keeping up a steady clip there already.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
