Just one week after the end of this hurricane season the National Hurricane Center is reporting that there is a tropical disturbance east of Puerto Rico that may form into a Tropical Storm or a Subtropical Storm within the next 24 hours. It is not unusual to have tropical disturbances occur after the official end of hurricane season. This has happened in previous years ,including in the record setting 2005 sesaon when we had Tropical Storm Zeta that formed in late December.
