#1 Postby KatDaddy » Thu Sep 04, 2003 4:20 pm

From Dallas AFD

AS OCCURS THIS TIME OF THE YEAR...TROPICAL ACTIVITY AND EASTERLY
WAVES IN THE GULF OF MEXICO HAVE A TENDENCY TO MESS UP THE LAST
SEVERAL DAYS OF ANY WELL THOUGHT OUT EXTENDED. THE GFS IS
INDICATING ANOTHER TROPICAL DISTURBANCE SOUTH OF LAKE CHARLES NEXT
TUESDAY WHICH IS SUPPORT BY THE ECMWF BUT FARTHER WEST NEAR THE
MEXICAN COASTLINE. THIS BEARS WATCHING.

WOO-HOO...my first post on here following the Great PBi "Upgrade" exodus!

Thanks for the heads up Kat. Had me wondering...I was looking at a recent GFS run and it had an bit of an odd look next week for what should be the tail end of an extended run of dry, fall-like weather. Our local AWD doesn't mention anything specifically, but is now hinting at putting precip chances back in the forecast starting Monday and increasing by midweek. Hmmmm.

Ya know, we're going on our 8th named storm now (Henri). If we continue this pattern, we'll end up with 16 or 17 named ones. I want a Hurricane Peter! or Tropical Storm Rose ;)

This season has the making of a rather active season

By the end September
1995 - Opal (Tanya)
1996 - Isidore (Marco)
1997 - Erika (Grace)
1998 - Karl (Nicole)
1999 - Harvey (Lenny)
2000 - Keith (Nadine)
2001 - Humberto (Olga)
2002 - Josephine (Lili)

So taking this in account we will have at least 15 named storms

You left out Georges. He was late September in 1998.

Linda, I believe tropicalweatherwatcher is pointing out the last eight years... 1988, of course is 15 years ago.

Thanks KatDaddy, keep us posted! Like this new forum. Too bad GoPBI took such a downturn at this time of year!
