If Jeanne would just get the lead out and do what ever she is going to do, it could go a long way toward kids being in school on Monday or Tuesday at the latest. Has any one else noticed how these storms have made theatrical entrances this year? Its like none of them have done anything until the entire nation is staring at them. Maybe they should start numbering them or give them nonsensical letter arrangements for names. Then these canes would not take themselves so seriously!

I've streamlined some things to keep it down. It still has to be babysat and reset way too often though. It does have a hardware issue that seems to rear its ugly head when traffic gets high enough. The current system is basically a modified desktop tower, and really isn't meant for the type of load it gets, but the new one should handle us for quite a while, and more importantly handle the features I want to add for next year.

I'm in Darien, Ga. , just down the road from you. What is your prediction? My son is coming down from N. C. on the bus Sunday night for a visit. Gets into Savannah at 11:15. Hope he does not get delayed!

Well Steve I am going to have to pull even farther E on this one than than you.The last four hours Karl's fast movement has provided a vacumn to be filled to the N and E of Jeanne.This filling in of the ridge is happening to the NE of Jeane and not so much to the NW.You then have the approaching trof from the W to pull at Jeanne later.The ridge
seems to be flattening out some as we speak in response to the advancement of the trof.I think Jeanne misses FL. skirts the coast and becomes a GA. to NC. event.I have had a hard time seeing this girl making it that far W.The fact she is idle again may mean the steering currents are weak again and maybe the ridge is weakening some..

I've seen a part of the future CFHC...It will be the BOMB! Mike had actually wanted to implement it this year, but with all the action we've seen he's gonna hold off for CFHC's 10 year anniversary (2005). If you think the site is good now...

Everything is supposed to "flatten" out in the near furture, this will start up the cycle again and make it very hard to track a tropical cyclone if one exists.

Them servers ain't cheap...

To far out right now for me took me most of the day to conjure up this one brain fart.

Speaking of a 10 year anniversary, I wonder how long I've actually been on this site. I'm pretty sure I was here for the 1998 season, but I can't remember. I'm looking forward to the upgrade though.

>>Well Steve I am going to have to pull even farther E on this one than than you.The

You might be right. I'm pretty non-committal on any landfall areas. It's just too hard to tell yet what's going to happen. Florida *almost* seems like a foregone conclusion, but it isn't yet. And whether or not Jeanne crosses to the west side (or even the Gulf) will make a world of difference for everyone in interior sections of the Peninsula. Trust me, the west side isn't always (= 100%) the weak side of a storm coming from the east, but it usually is. I just caught the west side of Ivan, and to see me cutting my grass drunk (I did a nice job though) vs. what the poor souls faced in Pensacola Beach (home away from home), it was night and day. So if the eyewall stays offshore or maybe just taps the coastline, the farther inland or west someone is, the better it's going to be for them.

Steve

I am going to get some sleep. Tomorrow and tomorrow night will be the telling tale of who gets wet, who gets wind, and who gets crow. I will bring the salt and pepper. Somebody else will have to provide the catsup, tobasco sauce and tortillas,
