Storm may slam Gulf, BP cleanup sitesNEW ORLEANS — Beleaguered officials in oil-hit states are bracing for the possibility that a tropical storm could descend on the Gulf of Mexico and delay spill recovery efforts in the area.
The National Hurricane Center said the first tropical depression of the 2010 Atlantic hurricane season formed Friday in the western Caribbean.
The depression had sustained winds of 35 miles per hour and was moving west-northwest on a path that could take it over the Yucatan Peninsula and then into the Gulf of Mexico, where BP officials are battling to contain the nation's biggest oil spill.
We're not all like Barton and Barbour, BP. We don't owe you ANYTHING, much less an apology...what's so hard about that to understand?
