Yes, the last one wasn't all that great. The arrows were too small and hard to see. Also, the lighting stunk and I looked evil.
So there are a couple of improvements to this one.

Since there isn't much to update I ran though and looked at Shear and SST's, and took a look at why upper winds are so unfavorable right now.
This is probably going to be a little eaiser to watch.

Hi PK!
Here is the first video that I will forever use as an example of what not to do:

Also, I haven't forgotten about the info you sent over, I'm thinking that I will hold on to that info for another 2 weeks and bring it up in July.
Thanks again

Can you tell me if you do talk about it as I've been busy lately so I haven't listened to any archives since I last joined you in the virtual studio about a month and a half ago. Thanks.
Talking of the tropics as of 2pm here it is 29.6C (I don't like the heat like this, but it is certainly hotter in other parts of the UK than that at the moment)

Re: New and Improved - Video Tropical Update
Great job, Mike. Even if I don't comment often--I generally try to avoid discussing others' views as I respect them and the issue I'm focused on is the weather itself--you are a real asset to NHCWX. Super job!

Yes. Good movie huh? I have always been a big fan of Tangerine Dream so I threw that in.
Intersting (to me at least) I found that soundtrack in a record store in downtown Chicago back in 1989.

Don,
Thanks. You do a great job as well...I always look forward to reading your comments and ideas...and I have printed out your statistical abstract to use as a "press guide" for the upcoming peak of the season...
Thanks again...
