A Record Tropical Storm Eta Headed for Florida

This storm caps off a record 29 named storms for the 2020 hurricane season.

Fortunately for Louisiana, this storm is now projected to go further east than was originally predicted. See "Tropical Storm Eta, latest threat in record-breaking hurricane season, to stay east of Louisiana."

We'll have to wait to see if this really is the last storm of the season. We are living in an unpredictable political and world meteorological climate.
