Hurricanes Henriette, Felix Slam Ashore in Latin America (2/2)

Military officials say a team has been in Belize since Hurricane Dean hit the area two weeks ago. It is assessing damage from the storm and helping organize rebuilding efforts.

Hurricane Dean also was rated a category five storm when it came ashore along the border of Mexico and Belize on the Yucatanpeninsula. Meteorologist Feltgen said it is the first time two hurricanes of that strength have made landfall in the same season.

"Since our records began in the late 19th century, we have no record of two land-falling category five hurricanes in the same season, nor do we have any record of the first two hurricanes of the same season developing into category five hurricanes."

Feltgen says it is impossible to predict if other hurricanes will develop in the Atlantic region in coming months, but he says forecasters expect storm activity this year to be above average.

In the Pacific Ocean, forecasters are tracking Hurricane Henriette which is moving north, near Mexico's western coast.
