Potential Tropical Cyclone 16 has just formed in the Atlantic Ocean with winds of about 35 mph, and it could cause some problems on the East Coast of the US. The storm has provoked Tropical Storm Warnings on the North Carolina coast, and Tropical Weather Statements all the way up through Maryland. It is expected to make landfall on Saturday morning as a tropical storm and winds of 60 mph, and later fizzle out near New Jersey and New York as a post-tropical cyclone. Marine warnings are also in place from Chesapeake Bay up to Cape Cod to tell people to watch out for dangerous rip currents and large waves that could be caused by the storm.


On another note, torrential rain has been striking London this week, with roads turning into rivers as the downpours continue. Gusts of over 50-60 mph were reported in some areas and over 1.5 inches of rain fell in just 2-3 hours. Rescue crews are being dispatched all over the city, helping people whose homes have been flooded or people trapped in cars. Trains have been canceled and cars have been stranded in the high waters, and there is more rain on the way. However, thankfully, this next round of rain shouldn't be as bad as the last.


Fact of the Day: It is physically impossible to sneeze with your eyes open. However, the popular myth that your eyes would pop out of your head if you did this is actually not true. Sneezing with your eyes closed is just a reflex, but keeping your eyes open when sneezing has caused intense pain for some people in the past- so you might not want to try it!


Quote of the Day: To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone, and a funny bone. (Reba McIntire)
