Hard to see the future of Lisa is. Clouded the model's view of Lisa is. Meditate on her future path, I will. :D

way TOO early to speculate on that ... the same dangers of one scenario over another are greatly dependant on how Karl affects or doesn't affect Lisa, and will Lisa get too close to be caught in the larger circulation of Karl, or not ...

I see what you're saying SF, but technically, it's never to early to speculate on the ultimate movement of a system.

Wow ... awfully early to say that. I'm feeling bold in saying she gets far enough to be a threat to the leeward islands. :-)

Local met's like ratings. For anyone to say Lisa is coming to Florida would be totally irresponsible. But, you can say on a track to Florida and get away with it. The fact is no one on this planet right now can say if Lisa will hit Florida as a CAT 5 or never get here at all. You watch you wait and you stay informed that's about it.

Yes, way to early to say if Lisa will be a threat to the U.S... things can change with the storm being many days away from being a possible U.S. threat. It wasn't that many days ago that the forecast for Jeanne was calling forlandfall in Florida by now :):):):)

The best thing to do is issue a BEAR WATCH that should last until either a BEAR WARNING is needed or until we know for sure Lisa will do what Karl is about to do, and recurve away ... :D

BEAR WATCH is a running gag right now with several AFD's from the National Weather Service offices using the term "Bear Watch" for a situation that bears watching ...

I thought a beer watch was something you do in the fall on Sat/Sun afternoons. LOL

If you live on the coast, where booze sales cease as soon as a mandatory evacuation order is issued ---

Beer Watch: mandatory evacuation orders may happen in the next 3 days -- check your cooler.

Beer Warning: mandatory evacuation orders are likely in the next 24 hours -- head to the nearest discount beverage store.

:lol:

SF

There was no question that this what it means... but you (everyone) has to admit it's an odd way for NWS offices to put it.

When it was first brought up yesterday afternoon, one was to wonder what they meant. Of course systems such as this bear watching;
this one in a more interesting way (although all storms are unique in their own way)

Lisa is going to hit near Galveston, Texas as a Catagory 3.

I base this on absolute %100 junk science divided by -removed- percentage/speculationx2.
