Caribbean - Central America Weather

[cycloneye]

No announcements yet from the authorities here in Puerto Rico. I am sure as soon is classified as a TD or a TS,the preparation plans will start to go into motion.

[msbee]

everyone here is taking a wait and see attitude. no announcements from our authorities either.
Then Monday everyone will be in a panic trying to get last minute preparations done.
It happens every time.

[BZSTORM]

Keep safe all my Caribbean Island friends......so far this season NHC has been a bit slow on anticipating how fast these systems spin up in my opinion, morning advisories 30% then out comes next one with TS announcement. So Crown weather has vaild point better be prepared and nada happen than to find yourself chasing your tail with storm or worse bareing down on you, which is what caught all of us with Hurr Iris in Belize, we went to bed thinking it way off as it was on way to Jamaica woke to find headed straight for Belize with warning that it was expected to make landfall the same day!! Never underestimate how fast a storm and spin up.

[knotimpaired]

The only thing we have noticed so far is the gas lines. We only have 2 gas stations and one had 29 cars waiting and the other was across the street so I did not get to count the cars.

At 7 am this morning neither grocery store (we have 2) had any bottled water. We hit both up for last minute items, hit the hardware store a bit later so we are set. The only place that I saw boarded was the Electric Company office. Our last minute prep will depend on what the NHC center reports.

Our biggest goal is picking my husbands 2 daughters and 4 grandchildren up at their hotel in Condado monday morning and getting back before the storm approaches or they shut the ferry down.

But here we go again. It all depends on the NHC and when they decide to tell us something.

Luis, if you have any insight on Mondays weather I would l surely appreciate it.

Too bad that governments wait that much to make preparations it happens here in El Salvador too the SNET releases special reports some days before the events but the authorities declare alerts until some damages have occurred. Thanks for the updates guys.

Good morning. Let's continue the preparations today as the sysem is continuing to organize and a TD may be declared later today.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
621 AM AST SUN JUL 31 2011

.SYNOPSIS...A MID TO UPPER RIDGE WILL NOSE INTO THE LOCAL AREA
TODAY THROUGH MONDAY OR MONDAY NIGHT. BASED ON THE LATEST
INFORMATION FROM THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER...A LARGE LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM...CENTERED ABOUT 675 MILES EAST OF THE LESSER
ANTILLES EARLY THIS MORNING...CONTINUES TO BECOME BETTER
ORGANIZED...AND COULD BE CLOSE TO BECOMING A TROPICAL DEPRESSION.
THIS SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE TO SLOWLY STRENGTHEN DURING
THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN ENTER THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN LATE
TUESDAY OR EARLY WEDNESDAY...AND COULD PASS NEAR THE LOCAL
ISLANDS LATER WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.DISCUSSION...FOR TODAY THROUGH MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...AND
PROBABLY AT LEAST PART OF TUESDAY...A NOSE OF MID TO UPPER LEVEL
HIGH PRESSURE AND AN OVERALL "DRIER" AND MORE STABLE AIR MASS
SHOULD RESULT IN A GENERALLY FAIR WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE FA.
THAT SAID...STILL EXPECT SOME DIURNALLY AND NOCTURNALLY INDUCED
CLOUDINESS...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM OR TWO
EACH DAY.

THEREAFTER...FOR LATE TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY
AND PROBABLY A PART OF THURSDAY...OUR LOCAL FORECAST HINGES ON
AFOREMENTIONED SLOWLY DEVELOPING SYSTEM WELL EAST OF THE LESSER
ANTILLES. THIS FEATURE HAS TAKEN ITS TIME GETTING BETTER ORGANIZED
BUT NHC HAS STATED THAT THEY BELIEVE IT IS CLOSE TO BEING A
TROPICAL DEPRESSION...WITH A NEAR 100 PERCENT CHANCE OF BECOMING
A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS...AND AN AIR FORCE
HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT IS SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE THIS
DISTURBANCE THIS AFTERNOON.

ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL OR ETCHED IN STONE...MOST COMPUTER
MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE SLOW BUT STEADY STRENGTHENING AND A
GENERAL WEST NORTHWEST TRACK DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS...WITH
THE CENTER OF THE SYSTEM THEN "PROJECTED" TO PASS NEAR THE LOCAL
ISLANDS LATER WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY.

THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY WITH THIS SYSTEM...BUT IT IS EXPECTED
TO BRING AN INCREASE IN CLOUDINESS...SHOWERS...THUNDERSTORMS...
WINDS AND SEAS TO THE LOCAL ISLANDS BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

THUS...ALL LOCAL EMERGENCY MANAGERS...RESIDENTS AND VISITORS
SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR THIS SYSTEM VERY CLOSELY THROUGH THE
LATEST FORECASTS AND TROPICAL WEATHER PRODUCTS ISSUED BY WFO SAN
JUAN AND THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER.

&&

.AVIATION...PREVAILING VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS ALL TAF
SITES THROUGH ABOUT 31/16Z WITH PASSING SHOWERS POSSIBLE IN AND
AROUND TJSJ/TIST/TISX AND TNCM/TKPK. AFT 31/16Z...SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE CORDILLERA CENTRAL AND
WESTERN PORTIONS OF PUERTO RICO. AS A RESULT...MVFR CONDITIONS
CAN BE EXPECTED ACROSS TJMZ THROUGH 31/22Z. WINDS WILL BE FROM
THE EAST TO NORTHEAST AT 10 TO 20 KNOTS FROM THE SFC TO 20K FT.

&&

.MARINE...GENERALLY EXPECT WINDS OF 21 KNOTS OR LESS AND SEAS OF
LESS THAN 7 FEET ACROSS THE REGIONAL WATERS THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT.
FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...WINDS AND SEAS COULD INCREASE
SIGNIFICANTLY AS THE AFOREMENTIONED TROPICAL DISTURBANCE/SYSTEM
MOVES INTO AND THEN ACROSS THE EAST AND NORTHEAST CARIBBEAN. SMALL
BOAT OPERATORS SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION ACROSS MOST OF THE LOCAL
COASTAL WATERS TODAY.

&&

.CLIMATE...JULY 2011 REPRESENTS THE SECOND WETTEST JULY ON RECORD
AT THE SAN JUAN AREA WITH 7.07 INCHES ABOVE NORMAL.
SIMULTANEOUSLY...2011 ALSO REPRESENTS THE THIRD WETTEST START TO
A YEAR WITH A TOTAL OF 44.23 INCHES AT THE LUIS MUNOZ MARIN

BARBADOS UPDATE

•By <markbgi at caribsurf.com>
•Date: Sun, 31 Jul 2011 06:40:51 -0500

Barbados Met office is on top of things. The local Met Office issued this statement Saturday. Although residents are heading to the supermarkets it cannot be certain that it is to stock up on storm supplies as Monday and Tuesday will be public holidays here.

Its most certainly looking like a wet Kadooment Day and the National Cultural Foundation (NCF)says the Crop Over show will go on.
The NCF’s corporate communications specialist Wayne Simmons said the agency had no plans to disappoint the 8 000 revellers and 21 bands expected to chip and dance from Warrens to Spring Garden during tomorrow’s Grand Kadooment.


HERE IS AN UPDATED SPECIAL WEATHER BULLETIN

issued by The Barbados Meteorological Services at 4:30 pm on Saturday, 30th July, 2011.



The strong tropical wave now located about 700 miles to the east-southeast

of Barbados continues to show signs of organization. Environmental conditions remain favourable for a tropical depression to form

during the next 24 hours or so, as the system moves towards the west-northwest

at about 15 to 20 mph.On its present track, the leading edge of the cloud mass will begin to affecting

Barbados by tomorrow afternoon, with some pockets of moderate to heavy

showers, isolated thunderstorms and occasional gusty winds spreading across

the island. Indications are that some of this activity will persist into Monday. Residents should remain on the alert, and continue to monitor any further updates from this office.

The other day the Coast Guard did a routine check on our cargo ferry "the Islander" which was one of two ferries servicing both Vieques and Culebra. They took a pick axe to the hull which created a hole in said hull. So it was taken out of service for repairs which only leaves 1 cargo ferry to service both islands, the "Cayo Largo". All of our other cargo boats are out of service for repairs.

The El Nuevo Dia, one of our San Juan papers is reporting that they have leased a boat from Interisland ferries that will start running at 3 am tomorrow morning in anticipation of a possible storm. They will be running extra trips to bring in gas, food and supplies to Vieques and Culebra and possibly electric and water company crews in the event of outages.

So rest assured eveyone on both islands, we have not been forgotten.

[crownweather]

Our lastest discussion is now available: http://www.crownweather.com/?page_id=4557 . For those in the Leeward Islands, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico & the Dominican Republic, prepare now for future Emily.

[msbee]

anyone? what is the current thinking about where this storm will pass through the islands? I know Rob at CROWNWEATHER indicated Dominica this morning . Do the rest of you agree?

(Thanks again Rob for your detailed analyses. We in the islands appreciate it.)

Our local government has activated its Emergency Operations Center and is closely monitoring things. But no watches or warnings have been activated yet. I do believe they are waiting for NHC, and IMHO, NHC is late on naming this storm.
Until a watch or warning is put up, I know the people of St. Maarten will not be preparing as they should.

[knotimpaired]

If you look at the google earth models the majority of the models that are clustered close together as of now show it to be Dominica. From there the next area of concentration for landfall seems to be the Tuna Point area of PR which is the SE coast, next to us here in Vieques.

Mind you these are the google earth models and the heaviest concentration of models in agreement to the path.

PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
1044 AM AST SUN JUL 31 2011

...PERSONS IN PUERTO RICO AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS SHOULD
CONTINUE TO STAY TUNED TO THE LATEST TROPICAL WEATHER INFORMATION...

A STRONG TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED ABOUT 650 MILES EAST OF THE LESSER
ANTILLES HAS CONTINUED TO BECOME BETTER ORGANIZED...BASED ON
LATEST INFORMATION FROM THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IN MIAMI...A
TROPICAL DEPRESSION COULD FORM LATER THIS AFTERNOON. THIS SYSTEM
IS MOVING TOWARD THE WEST-NORTHWEST AT 15 MPH AND HAS A HIGH
CHANCE...NEAR 100 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING
THE NEXT 48 HOURS. MOST MODELS SUGGEST A FORECAST TRACK NEAR OR
OVER OUR LOCAL REGION.

TROPICAL STORM WATCHES WOULD LIKELY BE REQUIRED FOR THE U.S.
VIRGIN ISLANDS LATER TONIGHT. RESIDENTS AND VISITORS OF THE U.S.
VIRGIN ISLANDS AND PUERTO RICO ARE ENCOURAGED TO GO OVER THEIR
HURRICANE PLANS AND CLOSELY MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM.

SOME IMPORTANT FACTS THAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT TROPICAL CYCLONES...

TROPICAL STORM/HURRICANE WATCH...TROPICAL STORM OR HURRICANE
CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE GENERALLY BETWEEN 36 TO 48 HOURS.

TROPICAL STORM/HURRICANE WARNING...TROPICAL STORM OR HURRICANE
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED WITHIN 24 HOURS.

DO NOT FOCUS ON THE LOCATION OF THE FINE FORECAST LINE ASSOCIATED
WITH THIS OR ANY OTHER SYSTEM.

A HURRICANE IS NOT A POINT ON A MAP. THE DANGEROUS EFFECTS OF A
HURRICANE CAN EXTEND SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES AWAY FROM THE CENTER.
IF YOU ARE WITHIN THE CONE OF UNCERTAINTY...IT IS WISE TO ASSUME
THAT YOU COULD EASILY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY THE STORM.

NOW IS THE TIME TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS AND SECURE YOUR PROPERTY. THE
FOLLOWING ARE SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR PREPARING FOR THE STORM...

GROCERY STORES MAY SELL OUT OF ITEMS QUICKLY. STOCK UP ON
BATTERIES FOR RADIOS AND FLASHLIGHTS...CANNED OR DRIED FOOD...
DRINKING WATER FOR AT LEAST 5 TO 7 DAYS...FIRST AID SUPPLIES...
AND PRESCRIPTION MEDICINE.

GET CASH...AS CREDIT CARDS AND ATM MACHINES WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT
ELECTRICITY. ALSO...GET FUEL FOR AUTOMOBILES...GENERATORS AND
CHAIN SAWS.

AROUND THE HOUSE...STORE LOOSE ITEMS SUCH AS TRASH CANS OR YARD
FURNITURE. SECURE WINDOWS WITH SHUTTERS OR PLYWOOD. ENSURE
BATTERY OPERATED RADIOS ARE WORKING. MOVE BOATS TO A SAFE
LOCATION. TRIM LARGE TREES THAT COULD FALL ON YOUR HOME. MAKE
SURE VALUABLE PAPERS ARE SECURE.

KNOW WHICH LOCAL SHELTER WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO YOU SHOULD YOU
DECIDE YOU ARE NO LONGER SAFE FROM HIGH WINDS AND/OR FLOODING.

IF YOU MUST EVACUATE TO A PUBLIC SHELTER...REMEMBER TO BRING A
FIRST AID KIT...MEDICINE...BABY FOOD...DIAPERS...TOILETRIES...
CHANGE OF CLOTHES...BATTERY POWERED RADIO AND EXTRA BATTERIES...
FLASHLIGHT...SLEEPING BAGS OR BLANKETS...IDENTIFICATION...
VALUABLE PAPERS...CASH...GAMES.
