its all fun and games until the neighbors roof flies off and kills you. I have experiences.

Well, most houses here are made of cement so that definitely wouldn't be a problem

I just wish hurricanes could pass through without killing anybody. They are amazing to see, hear, experience.

One day I want to see a tornado, though obviously from far away (since they're more dangerous)

 

[Kaladin]

Things are looking better for my weekend. I'll be in the Keys Sat afternoon, and it should have blown over by then.

Chantal is dead. RIP

 

[perfectchaos007]

Anyone have early models on this invest? probably a fish storm

 

[NH Apache]

And, thus, TS Dorian was born.

Doesn't look much like a fish.

 

[Baraka in the White House]

So I'll be honeymooning in St. Lucia the first half of September. How boned am I? Isn't this supposed to be a stinker of a season?

You won't know if you're boned or not until a week before the trip.

Not Hurricane related, but I'll be there on my honeymoon on Oct 7. I'll have to ask you for some tips...

 

[Teknoman]

Hopefully Dorian weakens...looks like that could be a straight shot across the south.

Never been myself but I picked up some good information from Amirox a few months ago in a thread I made on the subject:

LOL, I may be going there in November for my honeymoon. Still haven't set anything in stone, but some of the B&Bs around the bay look incredible.

Awesome! Thanks. We'll be at the Sandals but will definitely check these out.

Seems awesome. Booking flights tonight and should be about 1700 round trip from New Orleans.

Thanks, and now back to your regularly scheduled programming...

 

[perfectchaos007]

Relix may get a piece of it from its current track. waaaay to early to tell though. It may not even hold together even though it looks fairly healthy right now.

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

NHC has Dorian still tracking the same route, but the storm has weakened to 50 mph sustained winds.

Its becoming less organized. I'm not so sure it will stay together

 

[perfectchaos007]

Yeah now even forecasts are expecting it to fizzle before it reaches the gulf

 

[Clydefrog]

no one cares about Flossie?

awesome name.

 

[geomon]

It's just a Tropical Storm, should be fine.

 

[gwarm01]

My first South Florida hurricane season has been pretty uneventful so far. I guess I should be thankful for that, but part of me can't help but want to experience a storm.

 

[perfectchaos007]

It's just a Tropical Storm, should be fine. Now this one, I'm worried about.

?

Even if it re-develops it won't be more than a TS, and high pressure in Texas will keep it well south of US soil and only impact the land mass below us.

Sorry about that, it's old info.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Tropics getting a tad more active. Mid August to Mid October is the peak of the season so, right on schedule.

Tropical Storm Erin is born.

 

[Kaladin]

Any idea if Erin should come in before labor day weekend? I don't want it to fuck up my good time in TN again....got hit with a tropical storm in 2011 and it wasn't fun. I'm more worried about time frame than track at this point, I know it's hard to predict track but what about when it might reach us?

Yes, if it does make landfall with any intensity it will likely be before the Labor Day weekend. I'd say between the 25th and 30th.

That would put it over TN by labor day weekend if it goes that way....hopefully not.

It's way too early to be worried about that, the models are all over the place

I know...I'm just thinking ahead and the tropics have hit us with something the past two years at this music festival. I hope it doesn't this year, would love to have no rain one year I go.

UGH, going to Orange Beach, AL that weekend. FML

 

[Huevos de Oro]

Fuuu, all out of a sudden a tropical storm formed right under our butts (Fernand). Poured a good amount of water over here (Veracruz). Everything seems calm now that the thing moved inland during the night, but several parts of the city flooded. Weather dudes say it's gonna keep raining for a couple days more.

That TS lasted less than half a day.

 

[Baraka in the White House]

I wish forecasters were as shitty about predicting droughts and record high temperatures as they are at predicting tropical weather and convection in general these days. They hawked rain for Southeast Texas all last week with the approach of that pissy low in the gulf and until just now 99% of the rain has stayed just offshore, giving the gulf waters a nice soaking.

I live in Brazoria County. It has been raining here for almost a day with no end in sight. Sorry yall haven't been getting any of the spoils

I'm on the southeastern edge of Lake Houston. Something about this lake, man.

 

[Relix]

Some good fun coming my way!

 

[perfectchaos007]

Tropics may be heating up. We could have 3 storms in the Atlantic by the end of the week. Looks like 2 fish storms and one near the Yucatan peninsula that will probably be a threat to Mexico

Yeah, the Atlantic is churning with systems right now (possible and formed). Late starting, but it is definitely picking up rapidly. It looks we (Newfoundland) will likely be in the crosshairs a couple of more times this fall.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Hey Baraka guess what? That 93 L system isn't coming to us because there's a High pressure over Texas. I swear there has been a high pressure over Texas for 3 years straight

 

[Relix]

That high could break down, depends on the now TD10 movement. The switch has been turned on in the Atlantic and it was about time.

 

[Huevos de Oro]

Oh shit am I getting another one again?

 

[Mully]

Masters said the next few weeks are going to be slow, except for a possible chance of a coastal storm along the Eastern seaboard early next week.

He forecasted a possible opening for activity two-three weeks from now when wind sheer is expected to die down.

The Houston Chronicle already declared Hurricane Season over for the gulf coast. Even if something does form, the cool fronts that are already pushing through on a somewhat consistent basis will whisk them away to the east.

These past couple years of hurricane seasons have been duds.

 

[Kaladin]

We finally have some activity.....Tropical Storm Karen is born in the gulf and it seems to be coming north for a visit.

I don't think it has enough space to fully develop though.

between the gap or the gulf? that's enough if it is slow.

They say it will be closer to the North FL / Alabama coast by the weekend.

 

[maquiladora]

Watches :

 

[Kaladin]

I might get lucky and have a storm blow around me again (extreme south GA).

 

[Dead Prince]

wouldn't surprise me it turns more and engulf florida instead.

but i hope there's some activity in louisiana. all this summer sun is killing me.
