In Montreal it is breezy and cool this morning with area temperatures below 10C. Yesterday we had a very lively sky at sunset with showers and clouds playing with the setting sun. A spectacular rainbow developed and I was able to snap this photo before is dissipated seconds later.
Igor, Julia and Karl, sounds like a pop group from the 60's but it is the latest trio of storms in the Atlantic basin. Both Igor and Julia are major hurricanes meandering in the open waters of the Atlantic. Igor remains a potent category 4 storm with 145mph winds. This storm is a serious threat to Bermuda this coming weekend and will bear watching. Julia meanwhile has become a major category 4 storm as well with 135 mph winds and is located about 525 miles west of the Cape Verde Islands. It appears that Julia will take a sharp northward turn during the forecast period and avoid all land. Tropical storm Karl developed yesterday with 65mph winds and is currently approaching the Yucatan coast of Mexico. Heavy rain and strong winds are forecast today before Karl moves back into the Gulf of Mexico. The storm will then threaten mainland northern Mexico by the weekend.
