Rare Hurricane To Make Landfall in Brazil

If indeed this is a tropical cyclone (named Hurricane Catarina), it did not begin in the usual way; rather, it began as an ordinary 'cool' trough that sat over warm seas for a few days. Only one similar event has been recorded, and that was by the U.S. National Hurricane Center in 1991 when a strong tropical depression that formed off the west-central African coast moved into the central South Atlantic.

The Storm Hits the Coast

The existence of a rotating storm with an eye in the South Atlantic means that regional waters are now warm enough to generate the kind of moist upward flows of air that trigger tropical storms and hurricanes. Whether or not this will become a permanent weather feature is unknown. But it is known that ocean surfaces worldwide are warming, and therefore that incidents like this will become more common in the future.

Not since 1966 has a storm of this type struck the South American coast. Not since 1991 has a storm with the structure of a hurricane appeared in the South Atlantic. If it has sustained winds above 74 mph, the Brazil hurricane qualifies as a Category 1 storm, the least powerful hurricane. If, indeed, the wind readings are correct--the U.S. has no hurricane watch aircraft in the area, and Brazil has no means to analyze hurricanes, so the actual state of this storm is open to question. Brazilian officials say that it is not a hurricane or tropical storm. U.S. officials disagree.

What is known is that the storm is striking the southern coast of Brazil, and one child and seven fishermen, so far, are missing. It is also probable that it is the largest storm of this type ever seen in the region. Earlier records are sketchy, but there is no evidence that either of the earlier storms were as powerful.

As the oceans warm and the stratosphere cools due to global warming, the potential for more, and more powerful, storms rises worldwide. The possibility of a super-hurricane taking place in the traditional hurricane alley of the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico is now substantial.

Some curious fact for those that follows the natural time of the Maya Calendar:

Today (Gregorian Sunday 28.March.2004 when Hurricane Catarina is supposed to hit the Southern States of Brazil)) is Blue Solar STORM on the Mayan Calendar on the Solar Moon. The five ellements of today is Blue STORM, guided by Blue EAGLE that creates VISION. The analog energy of the day is Yellow SUN challenged by Red MOON and the hidden POWER is White WIND! And also if you check the position of today on the Tzolkin --- we are at the base of the central column (the VOID) on the VORTEX of all the GAPs (Galactic Activation Portal) days. I found it interesting!!
