Kinky October Weather

Meteorologically speaking, I can't help but be amused at the computer projections for the predicted trajectory of the current tropical disturbance out in the central Caribbean.  They are all over the place, with the paths taking the storm either over the Bahamas, the Gulf of Mexico, Mexico, or Central America!  In other words, the forecasters are clueless!  To be fair, this is late October, and the typical, more predictable late summer hurricane tracks tend to break down when the more northern weather begins its autumnal descent into the south.  We've finally been experiencing early morning lows into the 50's, thankfully, and maybe...just maybe...we're done for the year with 90+-degree afternoons.  Still, the wind direction can change suddenly, and the next thing you know, there is a tropical storm knocking at your door...
