...confess. I'm desperate for a Nats winning streak. But if I can't get that, and I can't get therapy, what I need is fall: cool air, falling leaves, oral arguments at the Supreme Court. And no baseball. Hurry...
...thing?s for sure: hurricanes were around a long, long time before human beings began chopping down rainforests and fouling the atmosphere. To get such a tempest going, you don?t need much more than ocean temperatures above 80 degrees Fahrenheit; a cool, wet atmosphere above and a warm, wet one near the surface; and a preexisting weather disturbance with a bit of spin to it far enough from the equator (at least 300 miles) so that the rotation of the Earth amplifies the rotation of the storm.

Most people, if they have a choice, try to avoid Shanghai this time of year...
