Nothing Threatening
05:41 PM EDT - 05 September 2000

Amazingly, there still isn't all that much to talk about this week. Labor Day weekend had Ernesto come and go without a problem. And this week the waves have persisted, but have not strengthen. We still may see a depression this week, but once again nothing immediately threatening anywhere. Interesting, it is, being nearly the peak of the season (15th).

FLO? (#1)

The question on this system asked on the previous posting concerned the future path of "FLO" I expect to be as I posted on ECTWC earlier, and I'm sticking to it for what it's worth. If the storm should spin up, and stay under the 20N/60W line, she should get caught up and under the building mid/upper level ridge building over the NE US currently. This anticyclone is forecast to drift over the atlantic and extend west throguh the carolinas to the northern gulf. If Flo spins up and stays under the 20/60 line, it will take a more westward heading and indeed become a threat to the US later in the weekend. If it doesn't develop so be it. But right now that's the thinking. This was validated by the NCEP tropical desk this afternoon after analyzing the latest model runs and sat pix. But will she develop? Probably a better than even chance; the floaters have been taking close ups of the wrong area of spin all afternoon by the way...it is further to the SW, than the pix shpow. What they are showing is the convection which hasn't wrapped around the "center" of the turning area. storm? ... TBD ...Direction WNW then west.. if it slips under the 20/60 line. cheers!!!
