Note that two the storms you're referring to (Iselle and Julio) may have similar predicted paths, but they currently 1000 miles away from each other, and will definitely not merge. Iselle is already impacting Hawaii, while Julio will not approach for several days (assuming the current forecast verifies).
Both FTDNA and Ancestry sponsor groups or projects where people in the same haplogroup can exchange information and maybe even find an ancient connection. But Y-DNA and mtDNA are intended to check ancient bloodlines, 10,000-50,000 or so years ago. They are not generally useful by themselves for genealogy.
Haplogroups pertain to deep ancestral origins dating back thousands of years. In human genetics, the haplogroups most commonly studied are Y-chromosome (Y-DNA) haplogroups and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups, both of which can be used to define genetic populations.aplogroups can be used to define genetic populations and are often geographically oriented. For example, the following are common divisions for mtDNA haplogroups: 1  African: L0, L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6. 2  West Eurasian: H, T, U, V, X, K, I, J, W (all listed West Eurasian haplogroups are derived from macro-haplogroup N).
