June 1st

Hurricane season begins today. I live in the North Atlantic region, and we haven't had a bad one in a long time (unlike the south Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, which has seen lots of activity in the last few years.) This year seems like it will be busy as well, and they are saying that my area is due for a major storm. The man who is in charge of these predictions is my letter recipient for today. I'm sure he's busy, so I won't expect a reply until after hurricane season is over in October, but you never know.
