I was answering your question about your mom comimg to Florida, I think the state of Florida is in the clear when it comes to tropical weather. As for the disturbance that the rest of the guys are watching, I would ask one of the pros like Clark , H.F, or Phil.........Weatherchef

welcome [Re: nl]
      #35508 - Tue May 17 2005 11:15 AM

nl,

welcome aboard! if you read these boards, you will learn much and we will attempt to answer any questions you may have. one question NO ONE can answer, however, is "will there be a storm at xyz on June 18?" all you can do is be prepared from June through November and stay abreast of the topics. as far as planning a vacation during a certain date, even to hurricane prone areas, do not worry about it...the chances are very slim that any future development will have any affect at all, and even so, you will ample time to prepare (if you are staying) and advanced notice if you wish to leave.

bear in mind that the "peak" of the season is from about August 15 thru October 15, so during this two month period there is a greater chance for tropical development. tell you mom to come on down!

again welcome aboard...

East Pacific System [Re: FlaMommy]
      #35513 - Tue May 17 2005 12:08 PM

Well looks like the system in the eastern Pacific is getting much better organised now, with deep convection and some banding features. Wouldnt be surprised to see this classified possibly later today. This mornings TRMM pass showed winds of 25 to 30 knots with this system. The NHC also continues running models on this system, which now bring it to near Tropical Storm intensity within 36 hours, and continue to take it across central America to just south of western Cuba.

Re: bermuda high????? [Re: ftlaudbob]

this is from today's palm beach post:

"Another rescuer would be a weakening of the Bermuda High, the ridge of high pressure in the western Atlantic that helped steer all those hurricanes into Florida last year. But Jim Lushine, a forecaster at the National Weather Service's Miami office, said it's still unclear whether the high will weaken enough to put Florida out of harm's way."

I would think one might get a better idea about the high come late June or mid-July.If The Alley is right on there predictions then I would suspect a more active GOM season.The fact remains that every storm has it's own set of variables that affect it's intensity and path.I have dropped a little tool to help in the understaning how Lows affect the path of storms.

http://meted.ucar.edu/hurrican/movncane/movncane.htm

This should show one that it is really fruitless to worry about something weeks in advance because of all the variables that take place.One should on the other hand just be calm and prepared in the event should something happen.

SPECIAL FEATURES...

TROPICAL DISTURBANCE 1006 MB CENTERED NEAR 10N 95.5W OR ABOUT
450 MILES SOUTHWEST OF GUATEMALA AT 17/1200 MOVING SLOWLY NE.
CONVECTION HAS GROWN NEAR THE CENTER WITH BANDING BECOMING MORE
APPARENT. THIS SYSTEM IS BECOMING BETTER ORGANIZED WITH
POSSIBLE TROPICAL CYCLONE DEVELOPMENT IN THE NEXT 36 HOURS.
UPPER WINDS HAVE ALSO BECOME A BIT MORE FAVORABLE WITH EVIDENCE
OF HIGH CLOUDS FANNING OUT ON THE WESTERN SIDE WITH A DIVERGENT
ENVIRONMENT NEAR THE LOW-LEVEL CENTER. THE SYSTEM SHOULD SLOWLY
MOVE NE AS IT IS CAUGHT UP IN SW FLOW THRU A DEEP LAYER OF THE
ATMOSPHERE... A BIT UNUSUAL FOR THE EPAC. . SCATTERED MODERATE
CONVECTION WITHIN 120 NM OF THE CENTER.

It states we will get some precipitation from this. Are you reading anything else regarding this?
