I agree Sircane . I think that she will fire back up tomorrow when she enters the low shear zone.

Maybe someone hit the "go" button a little too fast on the 11pm discussion for Bonnie. You got to admit, they have a lot on their hands.

Just looked at the TW Update. Bonnie looks life a golf ball, and Charley looks like a baseball. A big baseball. It looks as though Charley is making a W-NW track and unless he shifts dramatically to the right, he's not going to hit the mountains in Cuba. He may go OVER the northern end of Cuba but I think he'd have to start going NW to hit the middle.

Dr. Steve Lyons deserves more than 5 minutes on these two storms.

Don't dismiss Bonnie...

Don't forget Chas.

The NHC goofed?

It might not be so funny sunday, but, I may do a "week in review" list of posts that could be taken several different ways. Remember, I said it might not be funny Sunday. That's all I can say. Everyone in the GOM pay heed to the NHC warnings/watches. This is serious.

So Jason, Looking at Bonnie now Im not impressed and I really dont know what to think. I thought all she had to do was have a good blowup of storms and she'd expand and be in buisness. Guess I was wrong. What do you see happening with Bonnie Jason? Landfall between Destin and PCB still? Also, do you buy all the talk about Charley all of a sudden being a Flordia West Coast problem? Everyone has jumped on it, and honestly I think its way too early, I'd wait to jump on something till thursday at the most. But models seem pretty intent with it so it may pan out to be bad news for Tampa. Your insight is much appreciated man. Keep up the awesome work.

WV Loops [Re: LI Phil]
      #18787 - Tue Aug 10 2004 10:08 PM

Just looked at the WV loops...you can see why Bonnie is being pushed to the north/north-east, she's almost being squeezed. Then I looked at the WV loops for Atlantic/Caribbean basin, and you can see why Charley is moving WNW. Pretty cool.

At this point, there isn't much to be impressed with with Bonnie...finally showing some signs of life with that small cluster of convection over the center, and diurnal effects should allow her to hold together overnight, but the clock is definately ticking on her. If this flareup isn't the one that kickstarts her, she likely won't make it as a distinct system, and would likely get caught up in the front and dissapate.

Charley? EVERYBODY from NO to the Keys needs to have their eyes open on this one. West Florida is historically slow to act, and this could be a problem for those folks if they don't take it seriously. THat said, if you live in Biloxi, be prepared...or Destin, or Cedar Key, or Ft Myers...at this point there is NO all clear from Charley...the forecast track right now is a low confidence one...treat it as such...

I have no clue whether the information that was sent out early was wrong or not. I have a feeling it will be pretty close to what they issued. We'll find out soon.

Yes, I would check your batteries. Last night I paid no attention to Charley and gave Bonnie my undivided attention and today I'm doing careful observations of both storms. Timing is crucial and although Bonnie might not be a big storm, she has plenty of moisture. Charley, of course, is the one I'm keeping a double eye on since he's closer to Florida than Bonnie.

Then you think of all the rivers in Hillsborough/Pinellas and other rivers that are at flood level and even if we just get by with a brush of Charley/Bonnie, the city of Tampa may be the next floating city.

LI Phil...I wasn't trying to be flippant. I was just trying to figure out what happened. Maybe it was an intern, who knows. But I am very serious about both storms.

And I think that we will have Hurricane Charley at 11pm.
Amen.

Charley [Re: wxman007]
      #18792 - Tue Aug 10 2004 10:23 PM

JK...know you're busy, just a quick question. How many more runs would make you more confident in the track given out at 5pm on Charley? Thanks!
