Tropical Storm Karl and Hurrican Igor Cause Panic

CANCUN, Mexico - Tropical Storm Karl has been striking the Yucatan Peninsula hard these last few days, causing a bit of panic from the people of Mexico. Karl is expected to pick up steam as the days continue.

In addition, Hurricane Igor also began to pick up steam in the Atlantic and has reached a category 4 hurricane threatening much of the US East Coast.

Electricity has been failing along these areas and the government of Mexico is on a hurricane watch for much of the eastern gulf.
