Re: Tropical Storm Karl

These hurricanes are wonderful eye candy and unless you live in Bermuda none are a threat to the United States with the pattern we've been stuck in for the better part of summer...two distinct upper ridges, a persistent upper low over Eastern Canada, a TUTT stretching north to south to southwest to west and a COL....welcoming all passing hurricanes to a one way express ticket to the westerlies. The only game in town is recurvature if you're a Cape Verde system. I look at the long range models and over and over and over the same fate lies with all and if the shear doesn't take the trailing systems; the COL will snare them. The only systems were going to pay attention to are those that form in either the Caribbean or the Gulf of Mexico.
