Glad to see ya back Old Sailor... wondering what happened to ya... Joe Bastardi also forecasted a very similar type track to what you are saying the navy has forecasted for Jeanne (I think his was closer to the New Orleans area)

A request for the board:
I am a rank amateur when it comes to weather, storms, and such. I can follow a good majority of the posts, but occasionally I come across an acronym I cannot make sense of. Can somebody please post a primer of sorts regarding the most commonly used acronyms (i.e. S, LLC, etc)

I agree with you Rasavar, it's not a wise idea to change a forecast admist much confusion. They should stick to one forecast until the remmants of make more sense to were they're going. Looks like they will first head out to sea following the trough, then they will get caught up in the ridge and move southwest, then have a fujihawara affect with Jeanne, proprelling her to the Carolinas. As Ed said, the north track of the hurricane is very dubious (did I use the word correctly LOL). I bet everyone in florida is just pissed off, in my case I would just leave the plywood up and say s**** it and start cursing my head off. On a diffferent note, Rick James died can anyone guess why? LOL
I've been lurking here listening to this pain in the donkey ramble on about nothing at all and try to sound like he knows what he's talking about.
Look, this isn't a game. has killed about 110 people so far and still counting. People (like me) come to this board for information from reliable, experienced professionals and seasoned weather enthusiasts.
You sound like some punk kid who needs a hobby outside the house. It's great that you're interested, but back off and let the grown ups talk.

Sorry if I upset you, I know this is very serious and I'm not experincing it. I am by no means a "punk kid" if I was then why would want a hobby talking about weather? Have a nice night and again sorry.

Glad to be back Frank,
To soon to say but the track I seen, looked close to the 1900 #1 hurricane we know what that one did,, thinking on their models is that a high will block, FL and west to LA.
For all we knowJeanne could just die or stay as a TS, Nobody sure what tomorrow will bring. shear and the GOM water temp has drop my area only 82 degrees, it's a wait and see and hope nobody gets nailed, to many have been hurt this year.

I'm not trying to light anyones candle. I use this board because it is the most professional of any I've seen. I really don't care why Rick James died, but I am heart broken and care why all these other people died in the last 24 to 36 hours. I also don't think eaither of these issues should be followed by "LOL".

Just picked up a new generator and just tried the DSL and was shocked to see that it works. We saw 127 mph winds here and 1 twister that split 2 trees in half . 7.44 inches of rain and not much surge. Mobile AL got lucky with this storm cause my friends in the panhadle were not that lucky . James in the 87 degree house 
No Power, No water .

You miss the "joke". It was easier to figure out why Rick James died then to figure out where or Jeanne future tracks and why so many people didn't heed the warnings(Short anwser: Not enough Andrews).
Humor is needed in darkness. It is the light in the darkness. Sometimes people just misunderstand the need for it in the darken time.

here is a simple definition for a ... hope it helps..
TUTT- Tropospheric Upper level Tilted Trough or (Tropical Upper Tropospheric Trough). This is an upper level wave that commonly develops in tropical environments along old frontal boundaries or in association with an upper level low.

Just a few leftovers from here in Atlanta......
Still numerous roads under water but the flooding from the Chattahoochee is the thing that everything is talking about....Water was so high that it flooded out most of 6 Flags over Georgia, but they say they'll be open on Saturday, I dunno as what, a water park????
Death toll here in Georgia from stands at 4 including a 6 year old girl who was swept away by a flash flood in her front yard. They found her body stuck in a drain culvert this morning.
And trees are still falling all over the place. Had one big tree fall across a major throughfare near Emory University and our Fox affiliate.
And next door to me, a neighbor's very LARGE tree fell on his house, but he was alright. Although, when it came down I was awakened by a big whoosh and a shaking sound that shook me out of bed.
Big fear now is downstream of the 'Hooch with flooding and trees falling during a small gust of wind.
BTW, 6" of rain was recorded Thursday from here in Atlanta.
All those in favor of a nice boring weather week in the Southeast, say Aargh, Matey......
