Station SPLL1 today is reporting a 88 degree water temp just off the La coast. Plenty of fuel for TD#3/Cindy to feast on......MGC

Speaking of water temps, water in and around Tampa was like bath water last week while I was there. . . .

Once it catches all that ice cold beer along the beaches it will fall to pieces. That's what happened to Lili.... should couldn't beat the Hurricane parties.

I hate to say it, but I don't think we have to worry about TD #3 as much as we do #4.

Speaking of which!

I have an interesting question!

What happens if TD #4 becomes a tropical storm BEFORE TD #3 does? Does TD #4 become Cindy?

Oh yes TD4 becomes Cindy and you are right this one has to much real estate to cross and some nice SST's to boot.TD3 will be some rain and wind and that's it I hope.TD4 is another story in and by itself.
