That doesn't mean there can't be any hurricanes until nest June.These storm can form any time outside that 6 months window.Before the season starts,experts make predictions about how many storms we gonna have.Chad, Is here to tell us how those predictions worked out the season.
Chad, What was the final tally 1 for this year?
Carl,2011 hurricane season is over, here we go.3 landfalling storms only 1 landfalling hurricane.There was hurricane Irene.Very few people will forget that up the east coast from Vermont,New Hampshire,Maine,Massachusetts,Connecticut,New York,New Jersey,parts of North Carolina which did get a direct hit there by the storm.But Irene will be remembered as a flood maker 2,not so much as a wind maker.
But in18 main storms all together,7 hurricanes and 3 major hurricane,most of them didn't hit anything,that's guess the good news.
On an average year you should have 11 named storms,we have 17.You should have 6 hurricanes,we had 7.You should have 2 major hurricanes,we had 3.And then forecast actually, right along what we have here and NOAA's forecast is right exactly in the middle, a perfect forecast from the NOAA in the August forecast for them.
We made it all the way from Arlene through Cindy and Gert,all the way up to Sean.If its name is Tammy,You didn't get any hurricane this year.Most of them,other than Irene will probably be used again.They rotate these names every 6 years.So if your name is Tammy, maybe it's 6 years from now you have another chance.Carl.
Thanks Chad.
Now this day,December the 1st is world AIDS day.AIDS stands for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome which caused by HIV,human immunodeficiency Virus.Immune system can clear most of the virus out of your body.But HIV and AIDS attack the immune system and make it vulnerable to other infections.According to the latest estimates,more than 33 million people are living with HIV or AIDS worldwide.The disease had killed more than 25 million people since the first cases were diagnosed in 1980s.
Word AIDS day has 3 main goals to it.
To raise awareness 3 about fighting against this disease,to support people living with it and honored the memories of those who died from it.

All right,forward we go today,one of these things is not like another.
Jet,jet,jetman,this dude is wearing a personal wing and engine and his flying in formation with a pair of actual jet.Cruising speed for the personal jet wing is 137 miles per hour, that is the fastest that jetman can fly,but it's almost slow enough for the real jet flying near him to stall.The winged warrior 6 has shown off his skills before,flying over the G.C.What will he do for his next stunt 7?Probably just gonna wing it.
I guess time flies when you're having pun.Back tomorrow to close the week,we'll see you then.For CNN student News,I'm Carl Azuz.
