If we happen to get a third storm before June 11th, then we would break a record. But for now (as the link above shows), we are about 2 weeks too late to break the record of earliest 2nd named storm.RattleMan wrote:StormScanWx wrote:What's the earliest a second tropical system has formed in the year in the Atlantic?

Someone asked about Deret Ortt ...
He posted a quick Barry update at http://www.nwhhc.com/atl022007.html.
He's ill, apparently, so won't be doing full forecasts.

Not entirely true I believe...
A System is moving N@11mph
Shear is coming from the S@30mph
Net Shear = 19mph.
The shear is blowing the high cloud tops to the north of the circulation, but it is not blowing the new thunderstorm away from the center. Shear tendency maps also show the shear decreasing by -20 right where the center is.

I disagree, the center is struggling to wrap convection around and the entire west side of the system is dry as a bone.txwatcher91 wrote:chris_fit wrote:

Sorry, I misunderstood your post. Still, the shear does not appear to be hurting Barry, yet.
