Looks like we have a live one. T- # will probably be up next. The system is looking very healthy this afternoon.

Yes dixie looks like a candidate for development but it has to surpass subsidence and some shear ahead and if it goes by those then Juan will form from there.

It will have to be able to overcome some dry air ahead of it. Only time will tell whether we will have Juan on our hands.

Here is the invest page on it.

It islooking somewhat healthy, but it sure has a long way to go before I can really call it organized. The quikscat shows no hint of circulation to me ATT. It has a lot to overcome to go any further with its' development imo.

Oh, why can't these things go ahead and form closer to land so the wait is not nearly as long and blood pressures stay at a fairly normal level?? :)

GulfBreezer, I agree. The waiting for residents in the USA is a nightmare - I know that now!!!

I wouldn't sweat too much over this one for now

#10 Postby LarryWx » Wed Sep 24, 2003 3:45 pm

Regarding potential US hits, I wouldn't worry too much about this invest anytime too soon based on climo going back to 1851. The best chance for this to hit the U.S. imo would be if it simply doesn't become a TD east of 50W. Why? Because since 1851, only ONE TD east of 50W and south of 20N that formed on 9/25 or later eventually made it to the U.S.:

Storm #9 of 1893 which formed on 9/25 and hit SC

So, based on the last 152 years, I would say that if this becomes a TD east of 50W, it will have only a small chance to hit the U.S. since tomorrow is already 9/25. However, if this makes it past 50W without becoming a TD and if it then becomes better organized just east of the Lesser Antilles in the 50-60W corridor, I feel that it may then need to be watched more closely by U.S. interests.

Larry,
You have great stats regarding hurricanes.
I agree with you 100% regarding "said" invest.
We need to look closer to home.

Ron.

1893 was sure an ugly year for South Carolina. 1893 had pretty much a neutral ENSO period with the SOI indecies slightly positive throughout the year with a couple of minor exceptions. But one big difference IMO (and I don't have the stats on this) though based on the amount of activity that year, there was probably a W QBO during the 1893 season, while this year it has been predominantly easterly. (If someone can furnish stats on QBO for 1893, please do so.)

Great Stats as always, LarryWx.
