Both Atlantic and east Pacific hurricane seasons ended yesterday. The Atlantic was a quiet season, with only two major hurricanes, Bill and Fred, and not much in the way of damage at all. The East Pacific was much more active however, and the most powerful hurricane of the season was Rick, which reached 180mph wind speeds and a 905mb central pressure, making it the second most powerful hurricane ever recorded in the eastern Pacific. Fortunately it weakened to a tropical storm before hitting land, but it was still a very impressive storm. We'll see what 2010 brings.
All comments are more than welcome.
