Sure, it's going through a desert, and upper level winds are becoming increasingly unfavorable, but that even makes it more fun to watch. It has had a decent battle so far...can it continue? IF, that's a BIG IF, this makes it to the western Caribbean in tack some kind of way, it'll have to be watched. As you can tell, I'm in this group.
The other group is "it's dead", "stick a fork in 96L", and .....it doesn't pay to watch stray clouds crossing the Atlantic, or something like that. We get it. You don't believe anything will come out of this, and you're probably correct. If you do not wish to follow the progress of this invest, then simply don't respond. There are a couple other features our there for you to follow. Why wait until the season picks up to track anything? It IS hurricane season and has been so since June 1st. I, for one, as well as many others in here, really enjoy tracking the tropics. It doesn't have to be a Cat 3. A wave is nice...this is how you continue to build up on your tropical knowledge.
You are entierly correct.That is the reason to have storm2k and this Taking Tropics forum.In here we learn many things that you didn't know before about the tropics.You can voice different opinions about a system or other themes,of course without any namecalling etc.And also you make many friends who are enthusiastic tropical weather fans like you.But the most important thing is that you get the latest information in a rapid way,even before the media gets it.

could not have said it any better... i like to watch every little .. thing.. because there is always something to learn..
as for the people who are getting mad at skysummit because he or she asked that if you dont think its going do anything.. there is no need to say it over and over.. as for the people who watch everything as I do .. just ignore them.. and enjoy the watching and learning.. and that should be the end of it.. not talking about anymore...

as for 96l there still a circulation and since there is still is ... at a minimum there is a small chance.. regardless of how small .. it still exists.. if its now or two days from now.. happens all the time.. waves travel across the atlantic but dont form until they reach the western carrib.. or atlantic.. and thats a fact.
