you see? it is this sort of comment that is regularly turning me off to this board.
There are a certain amount of posters that only get thrilled when something is coming towards someone.

We all claim to be weather enthusiasts.
So we should be watching these systems to see what they do. Each one is different and each one has different weather phenomenon attached to it.
we can learn from everything that happens this time of year.. even if something is a fish....
It shouldn't have to be a severe threat to someone in order to turn us on.

thank you, Msbee
we do not need systems hitting land. A system destroying everything is not interesting, IT IS TRAGIC. Comments wanting death and destruction are also turning me off as well, especially when they come from teenagers who have never experienced a real hurricane. I have, twice, and let me tell you, its hell that I would only wish upon people like Bin Laden

This graphic from the NHC shows two possible low pressure systems in the next 3 days. The first on I beleive is 98L and the one behind it is soon to be 90L.

I also echo your comments. Thank you for making this post. It's really sad to see so many sick-minded individuals who "WAHOO!!!" everytime a storm approaches land, especially if it's strengthening.

Better than what? Looks much worse than yesterday. MLC no longer evident. I don't think that the models are focused on the correct area. That part around 39W is diminishing and/or being ripped apart. The place to watch is farther east, near 11N/35-36W.
Yes, I think that's clear. Looking in at Jeff Masters' blog just now I notice he makes the same point.
I wonder if it doesn't risk being caught from behind by that strong SAL outbreak to its NE ...

...I regret having hurt a few feelings two weeks ago, when I made a similar comment about some here who seem to desire a hurricane strike, but, as some here have mentioned today, it's because these folks either live outside the danger zone, and/or, have never suffered the effects of a disasterous Category 3, 4 or 5 hurricane.
As my Dad used to say on similar topics - that's something I wouldn't even wish on my enemies...
All one has to do is watch The Weather Channel episode of Storm Stories entitled "Semester at Sea", to see what even a non-tropical storm can do to a large ship, that was caught in a storm that contained hurricane force winds. Unlike some theme-park ride that gives a big thrill, but are over in seconds or minutes, in a storm at sea, or during a violent hurricane in a coastal community, a person cannot stop the action by getting off - even if they do not like what's happening. As with the students at sea, hearing them scream, while getting thrown from one side of the room to another, was very intimidating, even to see it on television - they suffered like that, moment by moment, for almost 2 agonizing days....
THAT is what any form of violent weather is about - it might be beautiful from a distance, but, it's deadly serious when it's overhead...

If a hurricane is about to hit my area, I do feel a bit of excitement. Honestly, no matter where a hurricane hits, I feel a little excitement... why? Because it is a chance to witness the power of nature firsthand. Storms that go out to sea, you can only stare at them on a satelite, but storms that make landfall... you attatch face, pictures, sounds to the surreality of staring at radar images and satelite images. Sometimes, it's nice to see the weather up close and personal... it's no different than those that chase tornadoes for the thrill, hoping that one forms so that they can get a rush from watching it. The best thing I can compare it to, is that nowhere else in life, can you watch something be born, live, have it's problems and have its successes, and die in all of it's beauty, within the span of a week or two. Oh, and don't give me any bs. I stayed for Katrina, an hour and a half SOUTH of New Orleans. My money's where my mouth is.

Please do not speak for everyone, as you do not. Please only speak for yourselves
As for the disturbance, the trailing one is becoming better organized this afternoon. I'd give it about a 30-40% chance of becoming a tropical depression within the next 36 hours (which is about 4 times greater than the climatological percentage)

This we want/we don't want hurricane debate is getting old. And we just need to talk about 98L as that is what this thread is for.
Since the system is developing further east around 35W this afternoon, it has little better chance now of connecting with UL over the North-Central Atlantic, recurving it out to sea. However I still don't much movement southward of ULL, so I think a more westerly course is still a possibility.
