Update from my blog of July 31st. It is too early for forecasters to predict whether Tropical Storm Dean, which is expected to become a hurricane, will hit the United States. A hurricane has not made landfall in mainland North America since Wilma struck Florida on October 24, 2005.

The Pacific and Atlantic hurricane seasons run through November 30. We’ll keep our fingers crossed and pray that we continue on our current lucky streak . . . and that Hurricane Flossie misses our countrymen in Hawaii.
