Theta has become the year's 29th named storm the most ever.

This year has been very bad for the coastal areas....and the oceans are still quite warm, so there may be even more. It's not just our part of the planet, either....there have been several reports of massive storms in SE Asia this year....and probably many other parts of the world.

Oh, I thought it tied the record. Wow, what a season. The Gulf and Louisiana were hit very hard this year.

It's the shape of things to come.
