The hurricane season lasts-officially, at least -from June 1 to November 30. But there's no cause for panic. In general, satellite forecasts give adequate warnings so that precautions can be taken.
If you're traveling during the hurricane season, you can call your local branch of the National Weather Service (listed in your phone directory under the U.S. Department of Commerce) for a weather forecast.
It'll cost 95¢ per query, but you can get information about the climate conditions in any city you plan to visit by calling tel. 800/WEATHER. When you're prompted, enter your Visa or MasterCard account number and then punch in the name of any of 1,000 cities worldwide whose weather is monitored by the Weather Channel (www.weather.com).
