So what happens during a hurricane in that area?


Hope it doesnt ignite a methane fireball...

And they dont really know what effect a hurricane will have on it...


And does the oil have any affect on surface tempature of water? Remember, just a couple degree change in water makes the hurricanes go off the charts...like Katrina did.

Here's a link to a Tropical Weather Forum that discusses the effects of the oil on the Gulf waters during a hurricane. I think it's subjective, but still has some good info.
