TROPICAL DEPRESSION TWENTY-FOUR DISCUSSION NUMBER 1
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
5 PM EDT SAT OCT 15 2005
THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE THAT HAS PERSISTED FOR SEVERAL DAYS IN THE
WESTERN CARIBBEAN HAS DEVELOPED ENOUGH CONVECTION AND SURFACE
CIRCULATION TO BE CLASSIFIED AS A 25-KNOT TROPICAL DEPRESSION. THE
CIRCULATION IS RATHER BROAD AND THE AREA OF MINIMUM PRESSURE COULD
BE ANYWHERE WITHIN 60 MILES FROM THE INITIAL POINT IN THE ADVISORY.
THIS IS COMMON IN DEVELOPING SYSTEMS. THE CYCLONE HAS NOT DEVELOPED
A TIGHT INNER CORE YET. DATA FROM THE RECONNAISSANCE PLANE SHOWS SO
FAR A BROAD AREA OF LIGHT WINDS WITH A MINIMUM PRESSURE OF 1004 MB
ASSOCIATED WITH THE CENTER. THE DEPRESSION IS EXPECTED TO MOVE VERY
SLOWLY WESTWARD OVER THE VERY WARM WATERS OF THE WESTERN
CARIBBEAN...AND WITHIN A LOW SHEAR ENVIRONMENT. BOTH SHIPS AND THE
GFDL SUGGEST THAT THE DEPRESSION COULD BECOME A HURRICANE IN A
COUPLE OF DAYS. IN FACT...THE GFDL MAKES THIS CYCLONE A VERY
INTENSE HURRICANE OVER THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN BETWEEN CUBA AND
THE CAYMAN ISLANDS. STRENGTHENING IS INDICATED IN THE OFFICIAL
FORECAST BUT NOT AS AGGRESSIVE AS THE GFDL...AND MORE ALONG THE
LINE OF THE SHIPS MODEL.
THE DEPRESSION IS MOVING SLOWLY WESTWARD AT ABOUT 3 KNOTS. A HIGH
PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO IS BLOCKING ANY NORTHWARD
MOTION AND IS KEEPING VERY WEAK STEERING CURRENTS AT THIS TIME.
THEREFORE...A SLOW WESTWARD DRIFT IS EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT 3
DAYS. BY THEN...A WEAKENING OF THE RIDGE COULD DEVELOP OVER FLORIDA
AND THE EASTERN GULF OF MEXICO AND THE CYCLONE SHOULD BEGIN TO MOVE
SLOWLY NORTHWARD. THIS IS THE SOLUTION PROVIDED BY THE GFDL...THE
UK...THE ECMWF AND THE NOGAPS MODELS. THE GFS DOES NOT
SIGNIFICANTLY DEVELOP THE CYCLONE AND DOES NOT CARRY THE SYSTEM
MORE THAN A DAY OR TWO.
ALL INDICATIONS ARE THAT THERE COULD BE A DANGEROUS HURRICANE IN
THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA IN THE NEXT 3 TO 5 DAYS.
HOWEVER...BOTH GENESIS AND INTENSIFICATION ARE HIGHLY UNCERTAIN.
ALL INTERESTS IN THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SHOULD MONITOR THE
PROGRESS OF THE DEVELOPING CYCLONE.

If any of you folks are waiting for the 8 PM Advisorie there is none because there are no watches or warnings posted anywhere so the six hour advisorie interval prevails.But it is expected that watches will be posted later tonight so the 3 hour interval advisories will start with the 2 AM one.

The following post is NOT an official forecast and should not be used as such. It is just the opinion of the poster and may or may not be backed by sound meteorological data. It is NOT endorsed by any professional institution including storm2k.org For Official Information please refer to the NHC and NWS products
NHC shows it turning to the N into in 5 days.
I think a U.S threat is very possible with this one.

TROPICAL DEPRESSION TWENTY-FOUR DISCUSSION NUMBER 2
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
11 PM EDT SAT OCT 15 2005
THE CYCLONE IS STILL IN THE FORMATIVE STAGES AND DOES NOT YET HAVE
VERY MUCH DEEP CONVECTION NEAR THE CIRCULATION CENTER... BUT OUTER
BANDING FEATURES SEEM TO BE GRADUALLY CONSOLIDATING. THE CYCLONIC
CIRCULATION ENVELOPE IS WELL-ESTABLISHED... AS IS UPPER LEVEL
ANTICYCLONIC OUTFLOW. A 23Z QUIKSCAT OVERPASS HAD SOME 30-35 KT
VECTORS THAT ARE PROBABLY RAIN CONTAMINATED... SO THE ADVISORY
INTENSITY REMAINS 25 KT.
THE DEPRESSION HAS BEEN DRIFTING SOUTHWESTWARD FOR THE PAST FEW
HOURS...AT ABOUT 225/3. THE WEAK STEERING RESULTS FROM THE
DEPRESSION BEING STUCK BETWEEN MID-LEVEL RIDGES CENTERED OVER THE
WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO AND THE CENTRAL TROPICAL ATLANTIC OCEAN.
THIS RELATIVE WEAKNESS IN THE RIDGING IS ASSOCIATED WITH A
MIDLATITUDE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM NEAR THE NEW ENGLAND STATES. THE
FLOW AROUND THE GULF RIDGE APPEARS TO HAVE A SLIGHTLY GREATER
INFLUENCE FOR NOW... AND THE DYNAMICAL MODELS FORECAST THE GULF
RIDGE TO REMAIN IN PLACE FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THEREAFTER...
THE MODELS SHOW THE GULF RIDGE MIGRATING WESTWARD... LEAVING A
GROWING WEAKNESS OVER THE EASTERN GULF AND ALLOWING THE
WESTWARD-BUILDING RIDGE OVER THE ATLANTIC TO BEGIN PUSHING THE
TROPICAL CYCLONE NORTHWARD. SINCE THIS PATTERN CHANGE IS FORECAST
TO OCCUR SO GRADUALLY... NONE OF THE GLOBAL MODELS... EXCEPT FOR
THE CANADIAN... FORECAST THE TROPICAL CYCLONE TO LEAVE THE WESTERN
CARIBBEAN SEA WITHIN THE NEXT FIVE DAYS. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS
SOUTH OF THE PREVIOUS ADVISORY FOR THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS TO
ADJUST FOR THE INITIAL MOTION... THEN BACK ON TRACK THEREAFTER...
AND CLOSE TO A BLEND OF THE GFS AND GFDL.
ATMOSPHERIC AND OCEANIC CONDITIONS APPEAR CONDUCIVE FOR
STRENGTHENING. EVEN THOUGH THE FORWARD MOTION WILL BE SLOW... THE
LARGE OCEANIC HEAT CONTENT SHOULD CONTINUE TO SUPPLY FUEL FOR
INTENSIFICATION WHILE VERTICAL SHEAR REMAINS WEAK BENEATH A LARGE
UPPER-LEVEL ANTICYCLONE. THE COUPLED GFDL SYSTEM FORECASTS A
HURRICANE IN ABOUT 36 HOURS WITH CONTINUED STRENGTHENING TO GREATER
THAN 90 KT IN LESS THAN 72 HOURS... WHILE SHIPS SHOWS STEADY BUT
MORE CONSERVATIVE STRENGTHENING. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS IN
BETWEEN AND IS SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS ADVISORY.

I have a gut feeling this thing (I call TC things now because of Katrina) is going to ruin my Florida vacation. I guess I'll have to change course and head to the Smokies. If the NHC track verifies then this could be quite a mess for the Florida west coast. I hope it just goes into the Yucatan but I doubt it....MGC

Tropical Depression Twenty-Four Advisory Number 3
Statement as of 5:00 am EDT on October 16, 2005
...Tropical depression continues to slowly get better organized as
it drifts westward over the northwestern Caribbean Sea...
a Tropical Storm Warning and a Hurricane Watch are in effect for all
of the Cayman Islands. A Tropical Storm Warning means that
tropical storm conditions are expected within the warning area
within the next 24 hours. A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane
conditions are possible within the watch area... generally within
36 hours.
For storm information specific to your area...including possible
inland watches and warnings...please monitor products issued
by your local weather office.
At 5 am EDT...0900z...the center of Tropical Depression Twenty-four
was located near latitude 17.0 north... longitude 79.3 west or
about 200 miles... 325 km... southeast of Grand Cayman and about
140 miles... 225 km... southwest of Montego Bay Jamaica.
The depression is drifting toward the west near 2 mph... 4 km/hr.
A general west or southwestward motion of about 3 mph...6 km/hr...
is expected during the next 24 hours. However... steering currents
are forecast to remain weak so some erratic motion will be
possible.
Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph... 55 km/hr...with higher
gusts. Some slow strengthening is forecast... and the depression
could become a tropical storm later today.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb...29.62 inches.
The depression is expected to produce rainfall of 4 to 6 inches over
the Cayman Islands and Jamaica... with isolated totals of 8 to 12
