METEO. Maria crosses Guadeloupe tonight
franceantilles.fr09.09.2011
http://www.microsofttranslator.com/bv.a ... 137700.php
The storm tropical Maria should cross the Caribbean arc passing on Guadeloupe the next night between 10PM and 3 AM before off the coasts of the islands of the North, on the morning of Saturday. The stormy rains will begin in early evening and will intensify during night. They persist in the day on Saturday. The wind will gradually strengthen to reach the next night storm forces. Cyclonic swell if is already established with 4 to 6 meters. Hollow sea should still grow in the next hours, the hollow max up to 9 meters during night.
At 5PM, the storm tropical Maria was located approximately 350 km South-East of Guadeloupe. It should pass through the Caribbean arc passing on Guadeloupe the next night between 10PM to 3 AM. Cyclonic swell is already established with hollow of 4-6 meters maximum. The sea is expected to grow over the next hours and heights of waves on the Atlantic will be included between 4.50 meters and 5 meters in the night. Max hollows can reach 9 meters during night. The coast under the wind, with average dips to 2 m in a sector south swell will be particularly exposed end of the night.
Wind, already established more than 60 km/h on la Désirade, will gradually strengthen to reach forces storm (60 to 80 km/h with gusts locally to over 100 km/h) on the next night. At the end of the night, he will guide to sector south, then southeast.
The stormy rains will begin in early evening and will intensify during night. They persist in the day on Saturday. Accumulations expected will be substantial and are succeptibles to cause flooding.

MARIA SEEKS ITS TARGET
France-Antilles Guadeloupe09.09.2011
http://www.microsofttranslator.com/bv.a ... 137937.php
The trajectory of Maria is difficult to identify. We must therefore remain vigilant and to listen to the weather. (Dominique Chomereau-Lamotte)
The trajectory of the storm tropical Maria remains uncertain. Martinique or Dominica nevertheless seem the most likely targets, while the phenomenon seems to be losing its power.
Weather France had seen just, Wednesday: while Americans forecasters indicated, for Maria, a specific trajectory bringing its centre to pass on Antigua, French meteorologists remained more cautious, indicating a broad uncertainty, ranging from Martinique to the islands of the North. Cannot say yet who saw fair, both this Maria seems erratic, but yesterday, the NHC in Miami had largely revised its copy and indicated, late morning, a passage of the storm between Martinique and Dominica, and then to 17 hours, a passage on Dominica. Weather France came to the same conclusions.
The last new available yesterday evening at 18 hours, Maria showed no signs of organization and therefore remained at tropical storm stage. She seemed to lose power - possible demotion today in depression - with average winds of 85 km/h and gusts to 100 km/h. It was still faster, 33 km/h. Its path was to have it go this evening, Friday, Dominica, and then about 30 miles off the coast of Guadeloupe, in the direction of San Juan. The first effects of the phenomenon, particularly in terms of houle (East East), must be noticeable as soon as morning, with hollow of 3 metres, then 4-5 million on the night of Friday to Saturday.
Uncertainty remains high
Guadeloupe also expected consequent storm stormy episodes from this afternoon and until Saturday evening and a gradual strengthening of wind during the day. Average winds of the order of 60 to 80 km/h, with gusts to 100 km/h are expected during the night of Friday to Saturday. It is sufficient to sunset all bananas, especially as the Basse-Terre, in the current state of the path, should suffer the full effects...
Attention, stay tuned to the weather. This phenomenon is clearly difficult to identify, particularly in terms of trajectory. "Uncertainty is still high, trajectories for Maria that can evolve between Saint-Vincent and Barbuda", yesterday prevented weather France services. A cone of uncertainty of 300 good kilometres... All that is not unlike 1995 and the prevarications of a certain Marilyn (read here).
(1) http: / / http://www.meteo.gp/, topic cyclones.
-A small air of déjà vu...
This tropical storm hesitates on the course, seems to point to a direction, then chooses another, it does remind you anything? Marilyn, in 1995, specifically September 14. A Mr. also. All those who lived passing on Guadeloupe remember this episode, marked by the fiddling of the authorities of the time, related to the uncertainty in the trajectory. The alert was triggered only a few hours before the arrival of the phenomenon, while the children were at school and their parents on the job. While gusts exceeded 110 km/h, hundreds of people, delayed by a monstrous traffic jams, were still on the roads, trying to return to their homes. Flanks waterlogged, Marilyn - which had become class 1 cyclone just before reaching Martinique, Dominica and Guadeloupe - had done considerable damage by flood waters that it had caused. If you look at the map of paths of cyclones that affected the small Caribbean over the past 50 years, on the site of weather France (1), there is that the trajectory of Maria is really close, very close to that of Marilyn, but atypical.
For the story, Marilyn had swollen quickly, becoming a cyclone of class 3 and bring about entire sectors of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. In view of the damage it has caused, his name has been removed: any other cyclone will not be called Marilyn in the Atlantic basin.
-IN the case of red alert: Airport pole Caribbean
(Dominique Chomereau-Lamotte)
When the red alert is triggered, the pole Caribbean airport active his central position of crisis. Branch decides, with airlines, traffic closing time, to anticipate the departure or arrival of flights (particularly long mail) and avoid that an aircraft remains blocked to the ground. Passengers must move closer to their company to whether their departure is advanced or postponed. For those who are already at the airport, they are invited to return home. The head of security is concerned the control to the last inbound or outbound flight and baggage. Any computer equipment, documents... are secure, put under plastic. Barbara Ako, head of service stop, ensures follow-up to alert plan. "Since the start of the season we have given instructions to the various positions and are prepared." Outdoor equipment: gateways are retracted, plated ground and statics. All equipment is placed at the shelter. "The rolling stock is stored in hangars or placed out of reach of the winds. Small private aircraft, under the responsibility of the owners, are also attached to the soil by cables or routed to other airports. Terminal fear nothing, the Windows are designed to resist wind gusts. Upon the closing of pole Caribbean, staff returned to the House, are prohibited. The gates are down and closed car parks. Passengers must to listen. Once the alert is lifted, traffic resumed immediately.
-More than information on flights on http://www.guadeloupe.aeroport.fr
-Full of provisions in the meantime...
(Dominique Chomereau-Lamotte)
Yesterday, late morning and afternoon, there was not was of real rushes in grocery shops and hardware stores, the announcement of the arrival of the storm tropical Maria. Apparently, since a few days, much would have shown foresight and purchased spikes, nails, large tape with adhesive for caulking Windows and doors. Very few have purchased generators, but have made provisions of mops, buckets, brooms, nails, lamps to batteries, rechargeable batteries, lamps of storm... Some considerate traders offer to the barges of the cyclones including packs of scotch, a MOP, foaming products, a campground, piles, a gas cylinder lamp... Other stores have highlighted also from specific products: of the rakes, plywood, nails, etc. Side feed, yesterday there was that privileged purchases were on the packs of mineral water, yoghurt, crackers, bags of pork ribs, chicken.
It should be noted that during the cyclone, the malls are between 5 and 10% of their turnover, between the months of June and September.
In the meantime, the Guadeloupian have ears glued to the transistor to track information of weather France forecasters - Guadeloupe on the evolution of the phenomenon.
-BENCHMARKS
VIGILANCE YELLOW
"Be careful!
A tropical storm threatens the territory, with a danger of heavy rain (with or without storms), dangerous sea.
VIGILANCE ORANGE
"Get ready!
A tropical storm is a possible danger with high expected impact: very heavy rains (with or without storms), especially dangerous sea (houle strong and powerful breaking on shores.)
VIGILANCE RED
"Protect yourself!
The effects of the cyclone are being felt: very heavy rains (with or without storms), widespread flooding, risks of landslides, rockfalls... The sea is exceptionally dangerous (strong and powerful swell that can destroy pontoons, beaches, flooding coastal roads).
VIGILANCE VIOLET
"Confine you, do not go out!
It is a major hurricane. It represents a danger to a part or all of the territory.
GREY VIGILANCE
"Stay safe!
A tropical cyclone crossed the territory, there is still a danger. It is to listen to the radio.
GREEN VIGILANCE
"More significant dangers or hazards away!"
The cyclone moved away permanently. Gradual return to a more normal weather situation.
-Might that current "rising power" phases of the procedure, the disturbance is declining or away without causing damage.
-In schools
Will go or not to school? To find out, parents will have to await the decision of the prefect of the region, very early this morning. It was he who ordered the closure of schools.

All those who lived passing on Guadeloupe remember this episode, marked by the fiddling of the authorities of the time, related to the uncertainty in the trajectory. The alert was triggered only a few hours before the arrival of the phenomenon, while the children were at school and their parents on the job. While gusts exceeded 110 km/h, hundreds of people, delayed by a monstrous traffic jams, were still on the roads, trying to return to their homes. Flanks waterlogged, Marilyn - which had become class 1 cyclone just before reaching Martinique, Dominica and Guadeloupe - had done considerable damage by flood waters that it had caused. If you look at the map of paths of cyclones that affected the small Caribbean over the past 50 years, on the site of weather France (1), there is that the trajectory of Maria is really close, very close to that of Marilyn, but atypical.
For the story, Marilyn had swollen quickly, becoming a cyclone of class 3 and bring about entire sectors of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. In view of the damage it has caused, his name has been removed: any other cyclone will not be called Marilyn in the Atlantic basin.
-IN the case of red alert: Airport pole Caribbean
(Dominique Chomereau-Lamotte)
When the red alert is triggered, the pole Caribbean airport active his central position of crisis. Branch decides, with airlines, traffic closing time, to anticipate the departure or arrival of flights (particularly long mail) and avoid that an aircraft remains blocked to the ground. Passengers must move closer to their company to whether their departure is advanced or postponed. For those who are already at the airport, they are invited to return home. The head of security is concerned the control to the last inbound or outbound flight and baggage. Any computer equipment, documents... are secure, put under plastic. Barbara Ako, head of service stop, ensures follow-up to alert plan. "Since the start of the season we have given instructions to the various positions and are prepared." Outdoor equipment: gateways are retracted, plated ground and statics. All equipment is placed at the shelter. "The rolling stock is stored in hangars or placed out of reach of the winds. Small private aircraft, under the responsibility of the owners, are also attached to the soil by cables or routed to other airports. Terminal fear nothing, the Windows are designed to resist wind gusts. Upon the closing of pole Caribbean, staff returned to the House, are prohibited. The gates are down and closed car parks. Passengers must to listen. Once the alert is lifted, traffic resumed immediately.
-More than information on flights on http://www.guadeloupe.aeroport.fr
-Full of provisions in the meantime...
(Dominique Chomereau-Lamotte)
Yesterday, late morning and afternoon, there was not was of real rushes in grocery shops and hardware stores, the announcement of the arrival of the storm tropical Maria. Apparently, since a few days, much would have shown foresight and purchased spikes, nails, large tape with adhesive for caulking Windows and doors. Very few have purchased generators, but have made provisions of mops, buckets, brooms, nails, lamps to batteries, rechargeable batteries, lamps of storm... Some considerate traders offer to the barges of the cyclones including packs of scotch, a MOP, foaming products, a campground, piles, a gas cylinder lamp... Other stores have highlighted also from specific products: of the rakes, plywood, nails, etc. Side feed, yesterday there was that privileged purchases were on the packs of mineral water, yoghurt, crackers, bags of pork ribs, chicken.
It should be noted that during the cyclone, the malls are between 5 and 10% of their turnover, between the months of June and September.
In the meantime, the Guadeloupian have ears glued to the transistor to track information of weather France forecasters - Guadeloupe on the evolution of the phenomenon.

METEO. Maria savings Guadeloupe, back in yellow vigilance
franceantilles.fr10.09.2011
http://www.microsofttranslator.com/bv.a ... 137700.php
The storm tropical Maria finally spared Guadeloupe. At night, it changed its trajectory and is was disorganized at the approach of the Antillean arc. Nevertheless, if we are spared this morning by heavy precipitation and strong winds, we will be affected starting in the late afternoon, the next night and Sunday. The sea will remain strong but to depreciate gradually. The islands of the North remain in orange vigilance.
The storm tropical Maria moved slightly more North than expected, leaving us in the margin of the most active part. She showed strong signs of disruption to the approach of the Antillean arc. 6 Hours, its center was located about 110 km east of Guadeloupe and heading towards Antigua.
It remains that if we are spared this morning by heavy precipitation and strong winds, we'll be affected starting in the late afternoon, the next night and Sunday, from which a return to yellow vigilance for heavy rain and dangerous sea.
The wind is weak and variable this morning. It is moving south then Southeast this afternoon in reinforcing but should not exceed 40 to 50 km/h with gusts under stormy showers.
The sea will remain strong but to depreciate gradually. Average low in the order of 3 m 50 this morning will reach 2 m 80 later in the day in a cross is swell in a sea of the South wind, creating an unusual restlessness on the Caribbean side.
The time will be variable this morning with traffic of showers usually of short duration. These showers will become more frequent over the afternoon and will intensify in evening and next night.

Thanks for your info. Looks like the southern part of Maria contains heavy convection and thus is pretty active in vicinity of your island. Be aware.
