Quote from KSC chief Met on GOM storms....

John Madura, chief of the Kennedy Space Center Weather Office, made these comments in a local newpaper this morning:

"""Forecasting storms in the Atlantic is more straightforward, Madura said, because the Bermuda high plays such a large role in their track.

"The Gulf of Mexico is hard to forecast," he said. "It's notorious. It's the graveyard of busted forecasts." ""

GOM, the graveyard of busted forecasts.... what a great quote, and how apropos!
