This is teacher Diedre Young and we will be starting up the blog this week and hope our German friends can post on their blog too!
It has been very hot here! 105 F (40.5 C) and with the heat index, as high as 115 F (46.1 C)! We have had heat advisories almost every day!
Right now, the National Weather Service is tracking Hurricane Danielle that will mostly likely hit the North and South Carolina coasts. It is currently a Category 2 Hurricane with winds at 100 mph (116 Km per hour)
We get hurricanes this time of year due to the storms that come off of Africa and then drift and grow towards the USA and South America.
We also start to get more tornadoes this time of year due to the cooler weather coming from the north hitting the warm humid weather off the Gulf of Mexico.
Next time we blog we will talk about the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and how it has affected our region.
