Oman threatened by first hurricane EVER

 June 5, 2007

Jeff Masters has the amazing story:

An unusual event is happening over the next 48 hours, as the first tropical cyclone with hurricane-force winds, and major hurricane-force winds at that, is approaching the Gulf of Oman, to strike the eastern coast of Oman, curve northward, and make landfall on the coast of Iran. In the tropical cyclone best tracks and the modern era of weather satellites, there is no record of such an occurrence.

Hmm, I wonder if the climate is changing. Regular updates available here.
