Last Significant ATL TC about a week away?

[Ed Mahmoud]

Canadian shows the Colombia system trying to develop, and the Lesser Antilles system developing, and GFS sort of shows something like this as well. 2 Caribbean systems at the same time. Seems unlikely, but ¿quien sabes?

What?

[Ed Mahmoud]

Everywhere else on the internet, ¿ would produce an upside down question mark. And an ñ would produce an enye.

BTW, in Catalunya, they use the letters n and y. Now, I ask, is that considered one letter? Is "ny" like the Spanish "ch"? Who knows? Just curious. Like our local Spanish speaking population. I'd always heard the letter "j" was pronounced like an "h" (whereas an "h" is pronounced at all, like parts of England), but the word mujer, woman, I hear prnounced not as moo-HAIR, but as mu-xHair, with a guttural component.


There are ways that require intense memorization, alt and 3 or 4 digits, to produce non-standard characters.

° Alt 1086 º for a degree sign is the only one I can bother to remember.

Seems the GFS has lost this system, I think the chances the CONUS will be affected by a named system is very low now.

Yeah, I'm glad to see this losing model support, since I have to drive to Tampa and back next weekend.

Great news

System possibly forming in east Caribbean. Ike also formed from lingering convection near Windwards.

Ya, I think they should just drop 97L back to code yellow and raise 98L to a code orange because this is looking better and condition should be favorable for cyclonic formation in that area in about a day or two. Soon though, there might not be any 97L, the thing is getting sheared to bits...

How many hours away is that for the Euro model?

But the Euro keeps pushing the day back, I don't even need to edit the thread title.

Things may not be perfect in the Marxist dictatorship, but one thing they do right there is civil defense, so I suspect you'd be safe in a shelter if the worst comes to past.

The LOW you see in that Euro model could be the LOW 'Blown Away' pointed out in the Panama thread. Apparently the model takes that weak Panama LOW that entered Central America and brings it back out into the Caribbean. Our 98L LOW bumps up against the same feature and heads NE.

Yes, that's exactly it.

98L departs to the NE. The low east of Nicaragua moves NNW into the NW Caribbean on day 6 and begins developing.

Still +240, however, significant convection now can be seen to the east of Nicaragua!

I believe in Cuba's civil defense, so if Euro's right, let's meet one and half week later in the check-in thread

Special Sunday Joe Bastardi Big Dog, comparing current weather to when Hazel was in the Caribbean, and as an added bit of TMI, JB thinks he was conceived as Hazel passed inland while his parents honeymooned in Atlantic City...



If we did get something through the Greater Antilles and into the Carolinas, that would be something. JB didn't actually predict that, however.

We got 99L closer to the week ago Euro prediction date. Not wishing any harm on Cuba, but I hope a certain Chinese student studying abroad has a digital camera available.

I have one. Almost all of my classmates take a camera with them. If it hits Cuba, I will record in a safe place.

Are there ethnic Chinese Cubans there? Have you been able to find good Chinese food? I have heard there are Jamaicans of Chinese ancestry, just wondering if any made it to Cuba.

Interesting lesson in the 'shape' of disturbances like the round burst north of Panama that has now become 99L.
