Western Caribbean/Gulf of Honduras Thread

#1 Postby rockyman » Sun Sep 11, 2005 5:11 pm

Does anyone else see the "eddy" east of Belize and north of Honduras, moving NNW?...There is not too much convection associated with it, but it does appear to be a swirl in the lower or mid-levels of the atmosphere...I haven't checked upper level conditions, so I don't have any idea if this area is conducive for development right now.

This was not a poll...why bother posting if you're not going to provide any intelligent thought on a subject? I might respect a two word response from someone who has a long history of well-written posts...I'm not sure about this response, though.

What? If you're wanting to discuss about a hurricane on the East Coast, then you're in the wrong thread. I'd direct you to go back to the multiple Ophelia threads...You cannot make people who are totally "out of the woods" regarding a hurricane (i.e. the Gulf Coast) talk about Ophelia. We're going to talk about something that might threaten us. Sorry...but that's just the way it is. By the way, I don't recall seeing any posts from you when Hurricane Katrina was threatening my area. :D

Yes, I think we are all aware that there is a hurricane on the East Coast but I don't see what the need was for you to make a comment like that. If someone wants to talk about something going on in the carribean it is okay too.

Development is possible if this area moves over water for a few
days. I have been noticing this area too.
But the key is it must move and stay over water. If a trough or something
to the north causes this or if nothing pushes it onto land then we
may see development. Convection appears to be persistent
especially near to the coast. Climatology favors this area as well
during the Sept-Oct Carribean season period of storms.

rockyman i've been following that cluster of thunderstorms and i'm curios of how that's gonna play out once in the GOM. Accuweather had been talking about low pressure in the BOC and combined with these thunderstorms who knows. I think we will get our suspicions anwered tomorrow, and n.c. sunshine your comment was out of place there's a thread with over 900 posts on Ophelia.

Actually, in my first couple of days, weeks, and months, in fact, years, on this board, it never once occurred to me to go into a thread that doesn't interest me in the least and tell those people, who are not hurting me, to stop talking about what were talking about. I don't think it has anything to do with being insensitive...it would be like me crashing a party to which I was not invited and telling the people there to shut up. :D

Excellent rebuttal Rockyman. Now, myself, if she said that to me, I would have gotten thrown off for my response. Very polished.

Ok everyone this thread is about a possible flare up of some storms off Belize, not who made the best response to a new poster. Back on subject please.

He, she, whatever...the individual who opposed Rockyman's concern. That area has more potential to case harm than the convectionless swirl off NC. Does the name Mitch ring a bell?

First of all i don't think anybody's response to n.c.'s post was rude,but rockyman had every right to establish a thread on something of interest to him without being jacked up.

Id say the convection north of Puerto Rico looks more impressive then this at the moment.

Rockyman ---- lets pray it doesn't develop. I don't believe the people in our area can emotionally take another scare this year --- especially everyone on Dauphin Island. I used to love storms, but they seem to be getting too powerful and the fun is gone.
