I'm currently very busy in college, so I'll be holding off on my Weather or Not project until I have a bit more free time. I have finished the first 10 units or so, and I'll try my best to have the material ready for the 2017-18 school year.
So yeah, recent weather news! If you guys haven't heard, we had our first Category 5 hurricane in the Atlantic since 2007 just a few weeks ago — in other words, the last time such an event occurred, I was a 4th grader (younger than you guys). I am fairly certain that this will show up on the competition exams this year simply because of how rare Cat 5 hurricanes are.
If you want to read a bit more about the life of Hurricane Matthew, you can go to this page (that is, if you haven't paid attention to the news already): https://weather.com/storms/hurricane/news/hurricane-matthew-bahamas-florida-georgia-carolinas-forecast
Speaking of which, the name Matthew will probably be retired next year, meaning that a new male name starting with the letter "M" will replace it on the 2022 Atlantic hurricane name list. I don't know about you, but that seems rather familiar... you know, there might be a chance that one of you guys' names will end up on the list (although it is rather low since there are many male names that begin with M out there...).
I'm looking at you, Martin. ;)
