Isn’t Hurricane Season Over?

Well, someone forgot to tell Ida that.  This late (after) season storm formed off of the east coast of Costa Rica, hit Nicaragua as a category one, skimmed between the Yucatan and Cuba as a category two, and is now taking aim at Pensacola, FL.  From there, it is supposed to move off of the east coast as a tropical depression.  There has been a large high pressure entrenched to the north of us, and the pressure differential between that and the remains of Ida are going to create some interesting marine conditions for us, and very possibly gale force winds from the North East.  If you’re looking to buy some local oysters for the weekend, get your order in now!  Good luck to the folks on the Florida panhandle!
