The storm surge has flooded beaches and nearby cities. Alex has become the first Atlantic hurricane in June since 1995. Coastal residence and local business were looking forward to a profitable and stress free 4th Of July but Hurricane Alex has taken a damper on the plans.

Blue tarps rest on houses as the region collects itself for a busy hurricane season. The hurricane forecast issued by Colorado State University's was predicted to be busy. This early June hurricane might be an indication that the hurricane center was right.

The center has predicted that there will be a 40 percent probability of a major hurricane making landfall along the U.S. East Coast, including the Florida Peninsula. The span of possible hurricanes will stretch across the entire Gulf Coast from the Florida Panhandle west to Brownsville, Texas. The predicted (long term) average for both areas is about 30 percent.
