So nice of Mother Nature to join us for the 2006 New Years Season as Tropical Storm Zeta inches her way towards Hurricane Statues. The 2005 Hurricane Season was the most violent on record. It was also the longest, as it started two weeks early and was held over for an extra week by Hurricane Epsilon to end on December 6.

This latest storm is rather intriguing to scientists, climatologists and meteorologist researchers, as this late in the year this is unheard of. If Zeta makes Hurricane status it could end up the first Hurricane of 2006 or if it continues for the next two days it will be the first Atlantic Tropical Storm of 2006. No matter what happens Zeta is putting the icing on the New Year's Party Cake for an unforgettable 2005 Tropical Hurricane Season; one, which broke all the records and refuses to die. In fact one could say it didn't die, it wouldn't die in 2005, it just ran out of time as we flow into the New Year.

What is going on in the Atlantic Ocean

these days, which is allowing for this level of storm activity? Why are the surface waters so bloody hot? Is there volcanic activity under the ocean causing this? Is it the Climate Change scenario we have been hearing about? Is this foreshadowing of things to come for the 2006 Tropical Hurricane Season? Perhaps all this and more, as Mother Nature once again reminds us of who is really in charge these days. More of this in 2006.
