Hurricane Dean set for Cancun?

The first major storm of the 2007 hurricane season looks to be upon us. It’s still way to early to tell whether Tropical Storm Dean (soon to be Hurricane Dean) will affect Cancun at all, let alone score a direct hit. But after the devastating Hurricane Wilma of 2005, it’s one that all in Cancun are keeping a close eye on.

One thing is 99% sure though and that is this storm will become Hurricane Dean sooner or later and possibly go as high as a Category 3. Several of the forecasted models put the Yucatan Peninsula in it’s path at the moment, but we are going to have to wait several more days before it’s time for panic stations.
