Ok...

Shear is not currently favorable in the NW Caribbean...but should gradually become more favorable over the next few days. I don't think this is getting past Florida...


I agree. If ths develops it is probably an eastern GOM event. Nice upper level westerlies due to the frontal activity.

I think this may be a system that moves west-northwest, to Cuba or the Yucatan Channel...and then gets pushed northeast into SW Florida by an incoming trough. The troughs become more dominent as you get more towards October/November. However, many past historic hurricanes have struck the USA in October/November. Hurricane Season 2005 is still very much alive and I am really, truly tired...however I think it would be wishful thinking on my part for me to say that the season is no longer a threat.

In a "normal" year, I would agree ... but heck, it was 108 degrees here in Austin yesterday in late September. This is by far not a normal year, or September for that matter.

The westerlies are far from being an active force below 30 degrees north.

I basically said that in another Thread last week..he's the "Howard Stern" of Metoroligy..Strange i use Stern as a comparison, he himself is headed to the Private Sector in January....on Satellite Radio....beyond the Reach of the FCC.
Anyways, I have a whole thing i could write about this, but i will just say that the more people get ticked off and write about him, the more attenion he gets....remember folks, there is no such thing as bad publicity.
I understand the Radio Station *may* have a Show on this whole Joe B/ Accuweather thing.....down the road...and i can't wait..i am a Pro Joe B guy and it looks like from the posts i've read...i am in the Minority with that opinion lol....but i never really cared too much for what people think about me....if i am there, i will state my opinion. It should be interesting to say the least lol

Channel 4 New Orleans meterologist Brad Panovich said with the cold fronts coming down, none of the systems will make it to LA or TX. But, I keep thinking of Juan which hit almost at Halloween and flooded Terrebonne Parish. Bob Breck had got fired from his job because he told everyone that Juan was going to be no threat to Louisiana. After some time passed, he managed to get his job back.

I am south of N.O. and many of the local Met's do agree that by around Friday we should have a cool front passing through. The only question from that point on will be the timing of the system coming out of the Caribbian. Cause they are not sure just how long the front will stay to our south.

Oh, I definately remember Juan. I was a kid then. We had over 4 feet of water in our home in Lockport in Lafourche Parish. The area just south of Lockport had over 10 feet of water. The water stayed for over a week and Halloween was cancelled.

I hope this system does not effect Texas.

I do not like what ImpactWeather is saying and hope they are dead wrong.

They are saying another GOm hurricane threat next Saturday with a landfall between N Mexico and central Louisiana.

That cold front could very well not make it given the crazy nature of the weather patterns we are experiencing. It is way hotter than normal here in the Houston area and it is insane to be under heat advisories this time of year but it is what it is. I would toss out any historical data on what storms typically do this time of the year and just watch and see...

What the heck happened? The IR floater is completely dark and the visible doesn't look current(there's a lot of convection)

It's fixed now. It looked like a naked swirl but it was right where this was supposed to be and the IR is back. 8-)
