Re: Tropical Depression Nine Forms in Atlantic

Ralph, I understand that. Sometimes, it is nice to have some advance warning on these storms, even before the NHC can put that out. You have to take it all with a grain of salt, however. That includes wishcasts, forecasts, and any other kind of 'casts, whether from novice, quasiprofessional, professional, or commercial sources. Some are better than others...some will tell you they are better than others when they are not...and some just try to do their job and realize that there is a greater purpose to it all.
