Is it following some warm water stream or something?

You mean like the Gulf Stream?

Except according to global warming models; melting ice caps are supposed to flush the Atlantic with fresh water thus driving the wamer Gulf Stream Waters down which in turn would turn things into global cooling or some such.

God's punishment on Scandinavia for creating the Volvo.

They are considered extratropical cyclones at that latitude and lose their hurricane "designation." We've had a few like this in California - they start out as a hurricane, then go way north of Hawaii, then come and hit us as a cut off low.

Goebbels Warming!


The North Sea has risen in temperature to thirty-five degrees. Certain to give the hurricane enough energy to devour the Eurowienees.

Run awayyyyyyyyy!

I thought Dick Cheney had the joystick on a nuclear submarine in the Gulf of Mexico. The nuclear submarine heated the water (intentionally), a Frigate turned on the fan to get the Hurricane started and the VP guided it toward New Orleans.

I think your right, but Rove thought up and coordinated the whole scenario.
