Re: Tropical Storm Emily Forms in Far Eastern Caribbean

Emily has continued to ramp up throughout the evening. Sort of mesmerizing to see if she maintains this overnight.

I noticed that green is beginning to pop out on the funk top

If that continues we could have a much stronger storm by morning. There is a diving trough right now, it will be interesting to see if Emily pulls more to the north away from her stubborn westward movement.
