I think we are seeing the effects of the sand, and pollution and we did not have a rain this past 24 hours.

www.cbsnews.com has a live stream now. I assume they will also show the lift off.

Invest 92L was at 8.5N 31W at 8AM. I think they put out this invest to make fun of me (see above post from last night: a couple of days!!). Numerical models make nothing out of it, run it into South America as nothing. It even looks like nothing. I swear that area is between two waves. Go figure.....

25/0530 UTC 14.0N 28.3W TOO WEAK 92
granted, this was at 5:30 zulu time, but 14/28 seems reasonable; right now doesn't look like much, but we'll see what the sez...
i'm a little more impressed by the wave trailing 92L just coming africa...it's awfully far south though:

Not to talk a bout the launch but,.. never ever had a problem seeing it clearly in the past - couldn't see anything today except a cloud of dust. I am so disappointed. Even had my video camera with me. I should have just driven over there. Darn that cloud of dust.
back to Franklin.

Saw it ok from where I am along 436 in Casselberry. It did go behind a cloud where we lost it, but before that it was clear.

Just moved to Polk Co from far east Orange where we could always see it very clearly, so I was a little disappointed today. Neighbor said they can typically see it, so I guess it was just a little too cloudy today. Maybe next time...

LI Phil, I'm with you on that one just coming off the coast behind 92L. It does look impressive.
By the way, couldn't see the shuttle on the West coast of FL either.

Weird, the model is showing a cyclone developing north of the Leewards and making landfall in Cuba, then another forming right behind it, followed by yet another one from the wave that just came off the African coast.

Lots of Waves - Model confusion. The Invest area is a huge wave that I believe will develop over the next few days as it heads toward a more favorable environment. These waves are fairly close together, so the models may be having some difficulty discerning their proximity and development. The tropics are going to kick into gear again.

So, when someone makes a statement using a phrase like "92L. Invest" what does each part of the statement mean? Thanks.

92L Means Investigation 92 in the Atlantic. The numbers cycle between 90-99. Invest means investigation. Thats it.
