    Tropical Storm Bret forms in Atlantic near Bahamas

    MIAMI (AP) — A tropical storm that has formed in the Atlantic Ocean near the northern Bahamas has grown a little stronger.

    Authorities in the Bahamas issued a tropical storm warning early Monday for Grand Bahama and the Abaco Islands, meaning tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the next few hours. Tropical Storm Bret isn't expected to approach the U.S.

    The U.S. National Hurricane Center said the storm's center was about 75 miles (121 kilometers) northwest of Great Abaco Island. Its maximum sustained winds had increased to 45 mph (72 kph) and it was drifting south or southeast at 4 mph (6.4 kph). Bret was expected to begin moving north or northeast Monday and to strengthen over the next day or two.

    The storm could produce 2 to 4 inches of rain over the northwest Bahamas.

      To Al Rozz. Yes, blame Obama but the real spendthrift was that AH, George W. Bush. He single handedly put this country in ruin.

        You freakin' liberal jerk! Obama has been in over two and a half years and hasn't done a thing but you idiots continue to blame all on Bush. Get your head out of your behind and see what is going on aorund you!

        Did you hear Obama's dog died. It is Bush's fault. Why is everyone still blaming Bush for every bad thing that happens? How much money did we owe China when Bush was in office. I think that number is $0. Obama has put us further into debt, and started us into a communist country.

      ....From George Carlin's skit...The Hippie Dippie Weatherman.....

      "Let's take a look at the radar...the radar is picking up thundershowers moving into the Chicago area. But..the radar is also picking up a squadron of Chinese ICBM missiles...so I wouldn't worry about them thundershowers.
      And now the pollen count..one..two..three...four..five...hahaha.
      It's 86 at the airport..which is dumb cause I don't know anybodty that lives at the airport."

        Simply amazing ---- two idiots on the internet can take a sterile subject like the weather and make it political -- what a bunch of jackass morons you are.

      I can see Jim Cantore of The Weather Channel hoping this thing strengthens, heads for the US coast just so he can stand out in the middle of it just to tell us how hard the wind is blowing.

      What kind of name is "Bret" for a hurricane? Sounds like the guy who cuts hair at The Hair Cuttery. The guy with the highlights and the Bichon Frise that your Mom says is sooooo cute.
      • Senator Parasite 10 mths ago
        It's all about delivery... it was funny up to the hair cuttery - then you blew it.
      • RonV 10 mths ago
        LOL, what about Bret Favre? The hurricane will be heading right for Miami, then head out to sea, then at the last minute it will surprise everyone and head straight for NYC.

      A major hurricane is no joke, I survived Andrew in 1992 a cat. 5, simply brutal. Please don't wish this nightmare on anyone. God speed to anyone in the path of these ferocious sstormsandeadlydeadly storms. deadly storms.

      There is another wave coming off of Cape Verde they think will turn into a hurricane, this will be the one to watch in about a week!

      A map would be helpful.
    • Otto Pilot  •  10 mths ago
      Meteorologists were predicting a very active storm season and so far... zip. Has anyone ever measured reality against their predictions? I find a lot of what they predict is just way off. So why do we place so much stock in those predictions anyway?

      Bush's Fault ?
    • ASIE  •  10 mths ago
      This is about a storm, I hope everyone in it's path will stay safe. To all of you who's comments have negative racial tones, I say: Instead of spreading such hate about the topic why not get off your computer chair and become a civil servant, that way you can actually solve this problem you feel so passionatly about. If your not with agreement with current laws then change them. I just feel that comments such as these add fuel to the hate that is allready out there. stop the hate, do something about it. And remember violence is not an option.

      Maybe it will disrupt Washington from blowing money.
    • Dulan Ray  •  10 mths ago
      why not have a big hurricane come through and blow all the illegals back to mexico.

      Still early in the season. Give it a month and we should see some violent destructive systems wrecking havoc on the coastal communities.
