Needs to stay farily far south to avoid the shear. Proximately to the South American coast may hinder development even if it did.


But Remember Ivan that moved thru the southern eastern caribbean sea and got stronger there despite South Americas cutting of inflow.

Don't know what the future is for a weak scattered system with an ill-defined circulation headed towards the shearing winds off South America? This one's center appears to be up in the upper-most convection burst.

Whatever is happening in the Atlantic this year - it is making quick work of systems that end up ghosts of organization with no storm beneath.

Effect reminds me of horizontal shear or subsidence.

I sure could have used that when I first joined but since then have figured out the 4 hour thing and just made a hand written table and have it sticky tacked on my monitor. :lol: I have to look at it ALL the time because my memory stinks. :roll:

I don't know about you guys, but 97L already looks like a TD.

According to what we know, there's no surface circulation as of now and the convection remains disorganized. No depression at the moment.

I went to Wal-Mart and got a couple of small, digital alarm clocks. I set the time to UTC. They sit on my desk right next to my computer screen. I use them all the time.

Label them "UTC" with a nice labeler for added usefulness.

And please folks, I don't need a thousand responses telling me how my primitive way is stupid and I should just use "such and such" web application or something. If you don't like it, ignore it, or offer your suggestion.

Ivan was stronger had more favorable conditions to north, where it is was still able to get inflow. This will not.

It statrting to look like this wont develop because of the simple fact that on this course and speed it will slam into South America..

Also, there is no LLC and the thunderstorm activity is racing westward away from what ever MLC there is.

There's always the ever faithful "addition" method. :D

Never needs batteries and doesn't require a download. Just add 5 hours to your time (since you are central) during CDT...and 6 during CST...and bingo...

there you are.

Of course...I've been going it for 20 years...I zulu in my sleep. :lol:

Easiest way to remember is this...during hurricane season...7am is 12Z (in the Central)...7Pm is 00Z. 1PM iz 18Z...10AM is 15Z...4PM is 21Z...

If you just memorize 4 or 5 main times...the rest will fall into place.

Of course...come standard time...it all gets messed up. :lol:

Gen Power...that's a good idea. I think I'll do that today. It's much easier just to glance at a clock than add +5 or 6 to military time.
