It sure looks like the center would be right in the middle of the c shaped black blob in this IR picture doesnt it, remember that recon had repositioned the center further ne than where it was, maybe it has shifted back ne some more? http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT/FLOAT/IR4/20.jpg

TD#10 much better organized and best yet. Center looks to be centered right in middle of deep convection. Next update should have this at TS. Looks as though its going to get stronger from here on out.

Joe Bastardi says the energy to the west of it....over central america and in the pacific a tad...is inhibiting the energy flow...sort of "competing with" the system for available energy. .well, he said that this morning. the latest loops show that this one is starting to "take over"....any one else see that? I see our little TD #10 sucking the energy from the west...and one thing Bastardi said...if any of the energy "masses" take over...watch out!

Possible Flooding Over South Florida Late This Week...
Tropical depression number 10 in the western Caribbean Sea south of Jamaica early Tuesday evening is forecast by the National Hurricane Center to move west northwest the next 12 to 24 hours. Rain associated with this system may begin to impact South Florida on Thursday and possibly continue for several days. The rainfall could be excessive and cause widespread flooding over most of South Florida.

Another typical August:
Hurricane activity is increasing and the Red Sox are choking.

Dvorak Intensity Classification

Check out the 3.5 Dvorak Image. Is it me or what?

aite... the convection is going right over the last center fix. unfortunately no telling if the center is there anymore, it's been jig-bobbing in an overall nnw direction since this morning, up towards western jamaica. but, the convection to the east is receding in the last few images.. maybe it will start concentrating more on developing a convective core now? we'll find out when recon gets back.

All I can say is...
      #3682 - Tue Sep 17 2002 10:55 PM

Wow. This is it, ladies and gentlemen. The one for which we have been waiting all season. We may not see another like this, so get all of your wishcasting out now. Since I am in Orlando, I expect Isidore to come up to Tampa Bay, then jump about 100 miles to Orlando, without loosing any strength. I'm not sure how the storm surge is going to make it this far inland, but I'm sure it will.

How about the GFDL taking it to 939mb just west of the Keys in 4 days. What would that equate to generally in wind speed--strong cat. 3?

A couple of years ago there used to be a lady who posted here, I think her name was Mary, who, every time a storm looked like it might come near Central Florida would shoo something called the "Lakeland Monster" on it. And every time she did it the storm would turn away, or weaken or something...I don't know what the heck she was talking about but we might need her early next week! LOL!
