cdo= central dense overcast:

Good morning everyone. Winds in the Keys are currently 30 - 35 mph with gusts to 45 mph. Winds along both the SW and SE Florida coasts are currently 20 - 25 mph with gusts to 30 mph. A lot of rain is about to move in to Dade County. Still waiting for the rains here in Palm Beach County.

Another typical August:
Hurricane activity is increasing and the Red Sox are choking.

Morning all.
Colleen, I posted to you on the previous thread. I guess I should have checked in here first.
Hope everyone has a great Friday tracking!

HURCON 3 has been declared here at Hurlburt Field, FL. Looks like our blue tarps will be flapping in the wind fairly soon.

Skeetobite, looking forward to seeing your maps again this year! You were the only one to pinpoint specific areas and the diagram of the red and blue showing where the winds could be felt was just terrific. You were such a great help as were your maps. Thank you!

Best I can tell, the center is around 23.8N and 85.3 west moving NNW fairly quickly. The sat presentation certainly is improving rapidly this am as well.

The ... What I see looks like it is forming to the E of where the center is supposed to be... far enough E that the whole thing will fit on top of Cuba, looking at the map. With such a 'poorly defined' center of circulation, is it more likely for the center to shift?

Couple quick things, abbreviations commonly used you can move the mouse over when reading the forums and see a description and sometimes a link for more info.
For example try moving your mouse over these:
- LLC SST and so on.
Any time I find a new one, I usually add it to the help list.

Arlene seems to have had her morning coffee. The didn't mention the possibility of rapid intensification, but she really seems to be popping at the moment. Is this just a pulsing effect, or is this storm going to make a run at Cat 1 before landfall? Thoughts anyone?

Maybe I missed it somewhere, which pretty awesome website are you referring to. Here is another for everyone, not sure if you use this part of the site or not https://www.nlmoc.navy.mil/home1.html

Wouldn't call it rapid intensification, but she is starting to get her act together. I still believe if she makes it as far west as forecast, she will be a cane at landfall.

I know I don't post often, but, I am a reagular "lurker" and look forward to hourly check-ups with you guys. I know most of you aren't pros, but, you are all seasoned vets of these types of storms.
But, the point of my post was to thank MikeC for the roll over effect on the most common acronyms. I am by no means a meteorologist nor an atmospheric scientist, and the addition of this feature will help me to understand the posts a little more clearly.
Thanks again.

Arlene is definitely on a track that has significantly deviated to the left of the forecast and is growing stronger faster. Landfall as a 70 mph tropical storm...think Barry.
Looks like an eye feature is beginning to show....

This feature was active last year too but the items that had the tip were underlined and blue right? Made it obvious there was more to it than word. Might be helpful
