Wow, can you imagine us beating the West Pacific? That would be storming the court worthy. Heck, that would be, wild celebration worthy.

And Ricky, you are correct. I already made that guarantee a week or two ago. I made an avatar bet with Matt-hurricanewatcher (the resident E-Pac fan on Storm2K), and it looks like his avatar will be celebrating our 2005 title pretty soon. :P

Just ran a loop of floater visable of the depression and some pretty fast NE shear is not too far to it's west. That's going to have to relax quite a bit as this system moves closer to Florida. Let's hope the shear continues! :eek: :eek:

That is being induced by the ULL which is moving faster to the west than our TD. Shear should be lessening from everything I'm seeing.
