Let's hope this is the last big hurricane of the season.
I *really* don't think the NHC wants to retire the names Alpha, Beta, and/or Gamma... but based upon the way things are going, it may happen. The water should have cooled down some - it IS October, isn't it? So, the intensity should have peaked in terms of monster storms, but conditions appear to be just regenerating.
The first visible imagery for Wilma is available... LOOK at that thing...
