Turned out that the few storms that even developed weren't much worse than a summer thunderstorm in NH.

You do realize that we're up to Richard in the named storms this hurricane season, right? As Eddy Izzard would say to an American audience "You do realize there are other countries, don't you?"

I'm teaching two meteorology classes this semester, one of them being a general weather and climate course for non-science majors. I think some of the students thought it would be easy. After a third of them got a D or lower on the first exam, I think they now realize it isn't easy.
