Hurricane Lisa?

9/24/2016

 
Here in Grenada, we are allegedly below the hurricane belt where it is rare for a hurricane to hit.  However, the meteorologists  are projecting that Tropical Storm Lisa could turn into a hurricane--and she's headed straight for us.  We're not too worried right now because what usually happens is a low pressure starts near Africa, turns into a tropical storm and moves directly west towards us.  Then, due to other weather factors, the tropical storm (which may turn into a hurricane) turns due north and goes into the Atlantic, or it turns northwest and hits islands north of us or skips those islands and goes directly to Florida and the East Coast of the US.  At least that's what usually happens. Hmmm...What will be our fate?
