Alpha might be just on target for when I predicted it... I said next to last week in October. Still got a couple days!

This is INSANE!

What I am worried about is if it gets to Hispanola especially to Haiti we know by past events recently how tragic it gets there. :cry:

I, for one, will be watching this storm very closely.....I still remember quite well the storms Katrina and Rita forming right close to/over us here on the island of Provo...

We are still suffering power outages from the damage caused from the storm we had here Tuesday night... roads are still flooded out. :roll:

More rain is the lst thing we need about now...

The models have it close to your location so be prepared my friend.

OK, here we go, I'd no doubt yesterday this thing was getting organized. Now worried for Haiti/DR and Turks/Caicos, so please be safe Greel! Intensity models show only TS development and no hurricane, which makes sense because of quick landfall on Hispaniola & mountains. But, the way this year has gone, I wouldn't rule out hurricane status at some point. This thing has a lot of power, those of us in EC found that out Thursday/Friday.

Yes ST Croix had a wind gust of 45 mph yesterday and in some locations in Puerto Rico winds sustained between 25-30 mph in the higher elevations were felt.

Effectively 1933 is already in second place, since it cannot match the number of hurricanes (record) or number of major hurricanes or number of cat 4s (record-tie) or number of Cat 5s (record by far). Nor can it match the number of TDs (25, win by 4).

Yes, yesterday late afternoon we had some strong winds up here in the mountains in Valenciano. Looks like we're getting away once more. Like you, I worry for the Domican Republic and Haiti. Even when it's 'only' a tropical storm, it will do a lot of damage there. Stay safe everybody in it's path!

Good! Now everybody looking for a record can be happy - as far as I'm concerned the season can end today..

Long range radar from San Juan showing nice convection near the center of circulation, and excellent banding to the east of the storm. Lookin' good this morning!

while we all are wondeirng if 99L will turn into TD 25( which it will or has already) and if TD25 will turn into Alpha, I am also worrried about anyone who might be in it's path.
Hispaniola in particular could be subject to a great deal of flooding, which is bad scenario for them.

All of you in the area, including greels, please watch this one carefully!

I wished the season had ended back around the time of Katrina.

The sobbering part is: we still have 39 days remaining in the season. That excludes any post-season activity.

and an "average" season would never have even reached "Katrina." But it's 2005 we're talking about here.
