Local Met observation

#1 Postby Josephine96 » Wed Jul 06, 2005 8:01 pm

I just thought I'd mention that I happened to watch 1 of the Orlando mets and he mentioned something along the lines of a model trying to form a low pressure around the Gulf that may keep Dennis closer to Florida than models believe..

I'm wondering like everyone else, where's this thing gonna go

This feature is currently in the mid-west area... I believe Tom Terry said this earlier too.

I Doubt it.

So will it have any impact on pushing him closer to sliding up the west coast?

I heard this also, it was Tom Terry but I took it with a grain of salt. I personally think were safe from Dennis.... note: that this is only my opinion I am not a forcaster by any means.

I tend to agree with you. The only thing that bothers me, is that Tom Terry was bang on with all four storms last year, in some cases making his forecasts long before the NHC budged, bucking the general consensus of the bulk of mets, including many here. I am going to wait until he is proven wrong until I rule him out.

I know a lot of people I work with.. tell me the only ORL met they'll watch now is Tom Terry because of how well and dead on he was..

Especially with telling us Charley's new path before the NHC even changed it.

don't anyone take it for granted that it will miss the Fl west or even east coast at this point - just too early to be certain. would much rather be prepared and have it miss than assume and have it hit!

I know he is the only met my husband every watches. He calls him the God of weather mostly because of how accurate was last year with storm tracks.

Tom Terry has been consistently good.

I heard a further discussion about a shortwave moving southeast over Kansas that could continue heading south, amplify the trough behind Cindy, grab Dennis before the models are indicating and take him northward sooner.

lol - sounds like a soap opera.

*cue dramatic music*

Cindy: "Oh, Dennis. I know you've been stalking me for months because I went out with Louisiana first, but I can no longer deny my feelings for you. Ever since Trough ate that shortwave and got a beer gut I've realized you're the only one for me, psycho or not. Grab my outflow and come with me, darling! ::heaving chest::"

Dennis: "Who loves ya, baby!"

*cue longing stares across the GOM* *fade to black*

You're starting to scare me a bit HurryKane.
Get some sleep :wink:

BTW, if Cindy and Dennis DID finally get together, I suppose Emily would be the "air" apparent borne of this stormy relationship?
