belated happy bday, clark. don't tell me you're 24.. that's mighty close to moi. mine got by w/o fanfare a week ago.. it happens.
99L looks spiffy, has satelite classification support, but i haven't looked at the phase-analysis info or anything... it looks fully occluded at least. ssts out there are warm enough.. barely. bad maritime weather is the only story.. it's neat to go far down the name list, an otto palindrome, but nhc likes to ignore stuff and i'm tired of fussing about how they do unless it's to state the extremely obvious.
got an inkling we'll see another one out of the deep tropics next week or two. gfs makes things up, but with some of the stronger highs coming down in the east over the coming days i'd say a good low in the sw caribbean is a fair bet.
all in all, october is getting by w/o trouble. winter not trying to assert itself either.. enjoying the pleasant fall weather here in s.c.

Belated Happy Birthday HF!
