Tropical Storm Oscar is growing in there is a good chance it will reach Hurricane status as at least a Category one Hurricane. We have sure seen a lot of storms this season haven't we?

The 2006 Atlantic Tropical Hurricane Season will definitely be one to remember, of course it has not been as bad as the record-breaking horrific and long-lasting 2005 Atlantic Tropical Hurricane Season, which brought us super storms; Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Rita and Hurricane Wilma. In fact, there are made areas that were still rebuilding from last year, which were to begin this year.

FEMA has certainly got a big workout this year and has cost the United States of America Taxpayer billions. Can we afford horrific Hurricane seasons like we have had for the past three years for the next decade?

Many weather researchers, meteorologist and climate scientists believe that we are in two-decade Hurricane Cycle and that indeed we should expect more of the same for the remainder of this decade at least. We are all keeping a very close eye on Tropical Storm Oscar to see if he turns into a Hurricane.

The Hurricane Hunters will soon fly off to take a look and The NOAA and NASA satellites are bringing in lots of data for the super computers to crunch numbers and predict where Oscar may have a landfall, which is sure to cause more damage to our coastline. Consider this 2006.
