Minimum central pressure... 975 mb.
Maria can become a 200 mph superhurricane for all I care, as long as it stays out to sea.

A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE HAS REMAINED NEARLY STATIONARY JUST
OFF THE SOUTHEASTERN COAST OF FLORIDA AND OVER THE NORTHWESTERN
BAHAMAS. THIS SYSTEM HAS BECOME SLIGHTLY BETTER ORGANIZED THIS
MORNING...AND A TROPICAL DEPRESSION COULD FORM IN THIS AREA DURING
THE NEXT DAY OR . A NOAA HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT IS SCHEDULED
TO INVESTIGATE THE SYSTEM TOMORROW..IF NECESSARY. INTERESTS IN THE
BAHAMAS AND FLORIDA SHOULD MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM.

Without a doubt something is forming in the area between Freeport and Nassau in the Bahamas. The winds at Freeport are NE at 17 and at Nassau they are WSW at 9. This indicates the closed circulation between these 2 places. Both places have identical pressure at 29.92". I have had over 2 and a half inches of on and off rain for the past day and a half from this system off shore. It has also been totally overcast for the past 2 days, unusual in Florida. Believe it or not my high temperature yesterday was only 79 degrees from all the rain and overcast skies.

Hurricane activity is increasing and the Red Sox are choking.

Why isnt the saying much about this? They must not be overly concerned?

That's what I am seeing on the visible satellite... it's definately not what we want to see though. It's hard to even think about what could happen if this thing becomes Nate and crosses into the Gulf.

I used to come to these boards for fun but now I come with a dreaded feeling of 'whats next'. How can we take another storm? Meanwhile, on the local news, they say cheerfully, winds are picking up and rain is coming down. I hope this dont go into the Gulf but it looks to me like It very well may.

They have said conditions would be more favorable tomorrow for intensification. They are watching it. So am I. Thanks for the link and discussion here on it.
Very overcast all day... eerie and gray and worried this will develop and people won't pay much attention til it is too late.
Maybe more so because today is anniversary of Labor Day Storm.. as it is Labor Day and it does make you remember..
Thanks. See it spinning. Will see what it does tomorrow.
Also watching low wave in far atlantic

Well it sure looks like we have something going on down there thats for sure. Had some nice showers come in off the ocean from the north east this morning. I don`t know for sure, but I think I`m seeing a little movement west north west in the last hour or so. Really not sure. Looks like we may be in for some rain or maybe more????? Gonna have to keep an eye on this baby, thats for sure........Weatherchef........... web page

Obviously there is a lot of divergence in the models right now without an established center, but in the absence of any forecasts from the , the HPC is going with the and solutions (some of the better models this year) which take the low into the upper Gulf Region by day 5. Not a pretty picture if it pans out...

It would be a horrible storm no matter where it goes. Everyone's concentration is on New Orleans right now, and if a major hurricane struck - anywhere - I don't know if there are sufficient resources now to help anyone who would need help afterwards. Granted, it certainly looks like the probable soon-to-be-TD15 will not be near the intensity of when it crosses the peninsula - if that's where it heads. One can only hope that the water is really icy in the Gulf now.
I really wonder why the is waiting until tomorrow to send a recon into this system - it looks as if it could even be classified as a depression now, albeit a disorganized one.

The last 5 observations from Freeport have all had sustained winds of 21-27 mph from the NE or ENE. However, the pressure has remained steady at 29.91"/29.92".

Cloud tops are warming again over the Bahamas, but structurally this area seems to be getting organized. We'll see. I was more impressed with it earlier, but now it just a weak low. Should pulse up again later today, and then we might have a depression. We'll see. 92L still kis a concern IMO, but days away from land. I believe there is still potential for development as it moves into the Caribbean. Other than Hurricane Maria, kind of quiet today. That could change quickly though, and I'm watching the Bahamas. Cheers!!
