The Watchers by Teo Blašković on November 14, 2020
Tropical Storm "Iota" formed in the Central Caribbean at 21:00 UTC on November 13, 2020, as the 30th named storm of the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season. Iota is expected to strengthen into a major hurricane before it makes landfall in Central America. The same region that saw major floods and landslides caused by Hurricane "Eta" -- in which nearly 300 people lost their lives -- will experience another round of heavy rain and strong winds. Landfall is expected early Tuesday, November 17. The time to prepare is now.
"2020 continues to add to the Atlantic named storm record," Dr. Philip Klotzbach, a meteorologist at the CSU, said. "The old Atlantic single-season named storm record was 28 named storms set in 2005."
"2020 is now tied with 1931, 1961, 2001 and 2005 for the most Atlantic named storm on record to form in November."
Iota is also the 5th Caribbean named storm formation since October 1, along with Gamma, Delta, Zeta, and Eta.
