Sorry about that. Will keep them longer and more on topic.

Maybe I'm wrong( I usually am ) ,but this seems to have Wilma written all over it. Except without the cold front.

Don't even go there damar lol....Wilma's a bad word 'round these parts

That's about as likely as Debby becoming a Category 5 in the next few days. In other words, highly unlikely.

Doubt it. There are no signs of a closed LLC yet!

You Florida guys are cruel!

Leave our Texas homeboy EWG alone ... so what if he's out at Home Depot right now getting plywood and a backup generator for Ernesto.

Why does Ernesto need plywood and a generator?

Folks, I remember in 1964 that Cleo was headed for Jamaica from the Lesser Antilles. However, it took a sudden and unexpected turn north right into Eastern Cuba and South Florida. It is much too early to predict where this system will eventually go.

I know, we are still getting back to normal here in Coral Springs!

That's very true Courier. Last season should have told us all that these storms have minds of their own. This invest is just that right now, an invest....until it's officially a storm, it will be very hard to predict where it will end up going. However, it is the nature of the board to start making predictions early

this is not 1964

we have reliable computer models now that can predict these things with reasonable accuracy

[Canelaw99]

Impressive. Big system:

It looks like a big, old squashed ink blot...it's huge and spread out....do we have any idea where the, er, center would be? I know there's some debate out there on whether there's a LLC or not.

[MortisFL]

I'm thinking it's FAR too early to be picking a landfall zone, let alone a specific state.

not if you live in texas

Has EWG chimed in on his track guess yet?

I'm sure he will soon.

[rnbaida]

Does anyone know what the shear forecast is like ahead of this system?

Not that fast. More likely tomorrow.

I will agree with that.. No evidence of a LLC yet....but it does look good right now.....

Charley was pulled northward by a historically strong August cold front that went all the way into the GOM. The situation is different this time, I think.
