Tropical Storm Alberto

I agree that the wave about to enter the carrib. is more impressive than Alberto. That wave could have a decent chance of developing over the next many days, and if it does I think it will likely be much stronger than Alberto.

It would be saving grace if you lived in Florida and are anxiously awaiting rainfall. We just don't want it to go completely poof. Let it stay as it is and generate rainfall, but don't wish for it to vanish. We NEED the rain.

Can I have a few days off, first? I just worked my 11th day in a row and it's only June 11th. ;-)

By the way, that wave should be hitting South America not entering the Caribbean, and it's encountering some pretty strong shear now. Won't develop. Might eventually pop up some storms north of Panama in the SW Caribbean, though.

That would be true. But even with the LLC dissipating you should still get at least some rain in Florida. We're pretty dry in Houston, too.

I pray the UL high over Texas remains in place or even migrates east the remainder of the 2006 hurricane season. I till take having to water the plants and yard for the protection it provides. Long live dry air.....MCG

I feel what you're saying, but I hate dry weather (droughts anyway) almost as much as having to deal with hurricanes. If I had to chose, I'd chose having more rain and taking my chances. Of course, I didn't lose my house last year either.

it looks like it a little bit

#1032 Postby **SouthFloridawx** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 9:26 pm

So I take it we have a pretty sheared system huh?

boca · #1033 Postby **boca** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 9:31 pm

The convection is out running the LLC but the LLC is starting to move NE,what a poor excuse for a storm which is very good in my book.

CHRISTY · #1034 Postby **CHRISTY** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 9:33 pm

Guys this is the worst looking TS i have ever seen....its only a matter of time before this is downgraded to a TD.which it might not even be a TD.

Here a IR image of what is I HAVE NO IDEA!

boca · #1035 Postby **boca** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 9:38 pm

Deeper convection over the Yucatan.

If the NHC forecast of 60 mph verifies I will be shocked. I doubt this survives the day tomorrow.

Extremeweatherguy · #1037 Postby **Extremeweatherguy** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 9:39 pm

Alberto reminds me of Henri in 2003. I remember it got all the way up to 50-60mph and was expected to strengthen before hitting FL. The next thing I knew it was a TD and crossed over my area (Orlando at the time) with nothing more than brief heavy rain and 20mph gusts.

boca · #1038 Postby **boca** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 9:41 pm

Brent I would say barely at TS or downgrade to a depression.

Jim Cantore · #1039 Postby **Jim Cantore** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 9:42 pm

a repeat?

Yeah, I don't know what they're thinking over there. What on earth indicates an increasingly favorable environment for strengthening in the Gulf? I can't even imagine what they're looking at.
