You bring up the relief effort and the end of Maria.
The cause of it is what I'm concerned about. A fringe outside source suggests that Rossby waves, the unprecedented expansion of the northern jet stream covering the middle reaches of Mexico may have been a major factor. Even the surge of wild and natural fires during the summer had been suggested for increased hurricane activity as well as the earthquake where the Cocos-Mathematicians Plate pushed the fault line 10 meters north. The unusual Luz Verde luminance, Northern lights and Lightning over Mexico City before and during the Earthquake had to be observed. |

Hmm. Maybe I tempted fate. Ophelia hits this morning. It will just have dropped from cat 1 to "Post tropical storm".
I expect it won't be any worse than our North Atlantic depressions we get once or twice a year. Forecasting a max (20% chance) of 50mph sustained and 80mph gusts. Not uncommon over here. My neck of the woods is on the lee side, North East Ireland, so it will be a wee bit windy and a bit wet.
