80s continue to invade the GOM. :eek:

I can't wait to see when a storm enters that area or the carib.

Here are a couple of sea surface temp images from the gulf and the carribean....

i can wait but some fish activity would be good

I normally don't follow the off season so is this normal the way the water is heating up this fast? I don't like to see death or destruction from hurricanes but I love watching them. So i cant wait for hurricane season to start but that maybe because I don't live in an area that ever has had a hurricane.

One thing I've been looking at the past couple of weeks is Buoy 26001 in the Gulf of Mexico. Temperatures there have been running as much as 5-6 degrees F above normal. 19% of the every-6-hour observations this year have been 30-year highs, compared to the average of (obviously) 3.3%.

The temperature at this buoy was 31.5 degrees Celsius the day before Katrina passed through; 2006 so far has averaged 1.4 degrees C (2.5 degrees F) above 2005 temperatures.

April is usually a dry month for Florida. May and June we tend to get more GOM moisture bubbling up. This year the higher SST's in the gulf should enhance convection.

It would only take a couple days of persistant showers over the gulf to bleed off a lot of that heat energy that has been building pre season. The warm water does not extend very deep in the gulf till later in the season.

If we continue to see the SST's running 3 weeks ahead of schedule in the gulf June could be the month for an early named storm there.

I'm starting to get concerned about the drought in the growing areas of the country. If the dry pattern continues even some parts of California could start seeing the effects.

The scenario that calls for this persistant high pressure dome to move east and bridge out over the atlantic would shunt tropical moisture south and up through the gulf but that is not a very comforting scenario even though it would relieve the drought.

how did you find that buoy with google earth

I just made a placemark and inserted the latitude/longitude coordinates found here.

These MAPS have now been updated...

These maps are from a different sourse...I Tend to like these better!
(Atlantic Sea Surface Temps In 120 hrs.)

Gulf of Mexico Temps in 120 hrs.

Southeast temps 120 hrs.

Maximum Potential Hurricane Intensity....

on image 6 why is there a cool pocket on top of the yucatan or west of the loop current

JamesFromMaine2 · #16 Postby **JamesFromMaine2** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 7:12 pm

theres already areas in the Gulf that can support a cat 5!

Ivan14 · #17 Postby **Ivan14** » Mon May 01, 2006 2:19 am

Wow that is amazing that the Gulf Of Mexico can support a category 5.

HurricaneHunter914 · #18 Postby **HurricaneHunter914** » Mon May 01, 2006 3:27 am

But the shear doesn't support Cat-5s at all.

That image answers a few questions I had about some graphics that some members posted earlier.
