Aftermath of Hurricane Elsa

 

Ok, "Crossing My Fingers" did not do the trick...Elsa DID become a Hurricane again, but not for long, and not much strength to it.

As I thought (hoped), Elsa did very little damage.  Had a storm came through on this path in another month or two...well, it would be an entirely different story.  Let's hope that does not happen.

The poor news headlines just couldn't find much to write about.  Looking through Google Images of damage, I saw a tree down here, flood signs around with little to no water, and the 'biggest story' was about a lot of fish that died on the southern side of Pinellas County at the edge of Tampa Bay.

Surprised to see the word "blessed" in the Ocala StarBanner, but there it is.

And that sums up the entire episode of Hurricane #1 for the year 2021.  Here's what happened so far this year, and future names we need to worry about . . .

✔Ana (Tropical Storm)
✔Bill (Tropical Storm)
✔Claudette (Tropical Storm)
✔Danny (Tropical Storm)
✔Elsa (Hurricane Class 1)
Fred
Grace
Henri
Ida
Julian
Kate
Larry
Mindy
Nicholas
Odette
Peter
Rose
Sam
Teresa
Victor
Wanda

Of course, IF there are more than 21 storms, they have a list of additional names, and this year they are:

Adria
Braylen
Caridad
Deshawn
Emery
Foster
Gemma
Heath
Isla
Jacobus
Kenzie
Lucio
Makayla
Nolan
Orlanda
Pax
Ronin
Sophie
Tayshaun
Viviana
Will

Let's hope they don't have to use any of the names on this alternate list . . . in fact, they can stop at Elsa and I would be just fine with it . . . but hey, it is hurricane season in Florida, and nothing stops that.
