It looks like it's going to weaken a lot before making landfall, but a cat 4 (bordering on 5) storm in the Pacific? That's a little bit unusual, isn't it?

It happens.

Also note that Hurricane Felicia from earlier this year managed to sustain Category 4 status for about two days before breaking up.

I guess you didn't get the announcement that class was canceled due to unusually early snows in the northern hemisphere.

Climate Change = Global Cooling.
Get ready for the next ice age.

Am I the only one who thinks that if Mexico is involved it should've been called Hurricane Ron?

It's an appealing, upbeat song. I think that's a large reason why the Rickrolling fad caught on in the first place.

Not really. And MajorityWhip , more like El Nino, not global "warming"...

Storms off the west coast of Mexico near Southern Baja regularly reach Cat 4...they just fizzle out faster than anyone can notice.

Not at all. The west pacific is the most active basin in the world and the east pacific is usually a distant second.

It's not unusual at all to get two or three super typhoons a year (their version of category 5 hurricanes) in the west pac - and a category 5 in the east pac typically happens every few years.

And here's a non RickRoll sat loop, it's a visible/IR hybrid loop now, it'll look cooler in an hour or two and it's pure visible.

Nah... On avg there's about 1-2 Cat 4+ storms in the Eastern Pacific each year. They very, very rarely hit land at that strength, however.

Hurricane Iniki did it in 1992, and Kenna in 2002. There's probably a few more, but I can't think of them.

I can listen to it. I actually prefer the scene from family guy where brian rips it off. At least I think there's a family guy where that happens. I always worry whether or not I hallucinate stuff I associate with family guy, show's so random it seems possible.
