Up north, Reporter Michael MacDonald, of the The Canadian Press, gives us "Atlantic hurricane season predictions fall flat".

HALIFAX – Despite dire predictions to the contrary, the 2013 hurricane season is turning out to be a dud.

With a little over a month left in the North Atlantic hurricane season, it’s now clear that the long-range U.S. forecasts issued in the spring – all calling for a high level of storm activity – weren’t even close.

I picked this item up from a "news aggregator", SOMNIA - Spotlight on Military News and International Affairs, from Canadian Forces College.
