Highlights Constraints Hurricane Season (Source: National Hurricane Center) Atlantic: • Hurricane Sally (CAT 2): Sally made landfall at Mobile, Alabama on 16 September early morning as a category 2 hurricane. As a slow-moving storm, Sally brought life-threatening storm surge and flash flooding to Alabama, Mississippi and Florida. Hundreds of people were rescued from flooding areas and more than half million population were left without electricity. Sally weakened to a tropical depression on 16 September. • Major Hurricane Teddy (CAT 4): Teddy is expected to transition to a powerful post-tropical cyclone as it moves near or over portions of Atlantic Canada on 22 September through 24 September where direct impacts from wind, rain and storm surge are expected. Very large swells produced by Teddy are expected to affect portions of Bermuda, the Leeward Islands, the Greater Antilles, the Bahamas, the east coast of the United States, and the Atlantic Canada during the next few days. These swells are expected to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. • Tropical Storm Vicky: Last advisory on Vicky was issued on 17 September. The remnant low should remain on a west south-westward heading while it is steered by the low-level north-easterly trade wind flow over 18-19 September. • Tropical Storm Beta: Beta weakened to a tropical depression on 22 September. Significant flash and urban flooding are occurring and will continue to occur for coast of Texas today.

  • By Mike Prero Most of You Will Not Be Surprised to Learn That, Since World War II, the United States Has Maintained More Foreign
    by Mike Prero Most of you will not be surprised to learn that, since World War II, the United States has maintained more foreign sites for its military forces than any other country in the world (you pay for them, after all!). But (and here‟s where your tax dollars really start paying dividends), lucky for us, many have produced their own special matchcovers. There have been hundreds of U.S. foreign military locations since World War II, from tiny Pacific islands that only geographers and military strategists have ever heard of to more recent sites, such as in Saudi Arabia...Naval bases, such as Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, and Atsugi Naval Air Station, Japan; Air bases, such as Anderson Air Force Base, Guam, and Goose Air Base, Labrador; Army posts, such as U.S. Army Post Orleans, France, and Camp Alpha, Saigon, Vietnam. There are even overseas military recreational areas, such as Garmisch in Bavaria (Southern Germany). Many have since been closed, of course, as first one party‟s administration shrinks the Military and then the other party‟s administration builds the Military back up again. Thus, aside from the waning state of matchcovers in general, the output of matchcovers from such sites has fallen off drastically since “the good ol‟ days.” As is usually the case, however, there is still a goodly amount of these covers to be had. continued on p.3 Normally, one doesn‟t see them advertised as „foreign U.S. military bases‟ in auctions, simply because sellers don‟t bother to break them down into that category.
