On Friday night/Saturday morning, I had a dream where I was looking at the NHC hurricane tracker map, and it basically looked exactly like what it is now: a tic-tac-toe board of yellow, red, and orange x's. In my dream, Sally was already a named storm.
Also, don't forget about Paulette, which is now at hurricane strength and moving over Bermuda.
Yes, Paulette is going to cause a lot of problems for Bermuda. Looks like you really did see NHC board Coyote. It is quite shocking to view isn't it?.
So interesting to read your thoughts on Sally and Teddy. I agree totally - I feel like I am seeing more in the cards than just the storm intensity. I keep getting thoughts and interpretations like you -- maybe these are warnings and storms that will move people to take climate change more seriously; signs to act, as you said.
Say hello to Teddy and Vicky!
There are 5 named systems in the Atlantic for only the second time in history.
Sally is a hurricane now and strengthening rapidly.
Hurricane Paulette is pounding Bermuda.

She is currently moving only 2 miles an hour and sitting right off shore. That is a long time to be dealing with hurricane winds. She is hours away from making landfall and not expected to speed up much once landfall is made.
Record rainfall is expected. Over 30 inches from Mississippi to Florida.
Days of rain.
Boy do I wish we could trade off weather for a bit in the Gulf and the west coast.
I see that Hurricane Teddy is now at Category 4 strength out in the Atlantic. It will be one to watch, for sure.
And we're on to the Greek alphabet. Subtropical Storm Alpha formed off the coast of Portugal earlier today, while Tropical Storm Beta is churning out in the Gulf. I'm wondering if Alpha set any records for being the easternmost storm to become a tropical/subtropical cyclone in the Atlantic.
Insane how many storms we have had.
The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season has racked up storms at breakneck speed. According to meteorologist Philip Klotzbach, the prior record for the earliest 21st named storm was October 8, 2005 — nearly three weeks later than the new record that was set on Friday.
Also, William, Alpha and Beta formed in one day. This is only the second time in Atlantic history that three named systems have formed in one day.

There was also a 6.9-magnitude earthquake today along the mid-Atlantic Ridge off the coast of Brazil. Just sayin'.
Paulette has reformed again and is back now by the Azores as a TS. A" P" storm and here we are on Beta. Crazy.
TS Beta has crossed the Texas coastline is is traveling S L O W L Y at 3 miles an hour. It washed away part of the Galveston Pier.
Hurricane Teddy is producing big rip currents on the Atlantic coast and will hit Canada on Wednesday.
