TROPICAL WEATHER SECTION


TROPICAL WEATHER SECTION

2008 Named Storms:
Arthur, Bertha,Cristobal, Dolly, Edouard, Fay, Gustav, Hanna, Ike, Josephine, Kyle, Laura, Marco, Nana, Omar, Paloma,

Rene, Sally, Teddy, Vicky, Wilfred


IN SIMPLE TERMS OVERVIEW:Tropics are quite with nothing expected in the next 48 hours!

IN SIMPLE TERMS:---If you look at Graphic 1, you can see the NHC has nothing developing in the next 48 hours. I strongly agree with NHC and would suggest over the next few days i see nothing as strong shear takes over the Atlantic and now is taking over the Caribbean also. Look at Garphic 16 for the Shear Map! Look at Graphic 21 (Sea Surface Temperatures) would suggest there is still plenty of warm Tropical Water in the Caribbean but, Shear will prevent much from happening!
Computer models are still hinting at some tropical development in the South Central Caribbean in about 5-7 days. This could be because of the tail end of the cold front that stalls over the area. There is a strong possiblity for this to occur.


OTHER INTEREST IN SIMPLE TERMS:---I see nothing else of issue in the next 48 hours.


Remember the National Hurricane Center are the Professionals and release complete updates at 11 and 5 on the hour and partial updates at 2 and 8 on the hour if needed. Also, the NHC identifies the Tropical Season from JUNE 1st THUR NOVEMBER 30th

WINTER WEATHER
IN SIMPLE TERMS:---The Deep South and the East coast has 1 more nite of very cold weather before a warm up starts to occure. By the weekend Average conditions should return in the MidWest, South and East Coast. If you look at Graphic 5, you and see the West Coast could be getting some releif in some moisture soon as the approach of a low that should be far enough south to bring some Pacific Moisture to that area. This same low will also be the culprit that could bring a very timely Winter Storm to the MidWest, South and East Coast Thanksgiving Weekend. This Storm could bring an even colder air that just occured. Its still a little far out to know for certain what will occur yet but, models are starting to suggest that a very strong system will develop. Look at the GFS model above in this section! Lake affect snow will continue to be heavy in areas while the North East could still recieve a light dusting over the next 2 days. It appears to me that a major winter storm will affect Holiday travel plans next week as problems could be looming. If you are traveling please be aware of this possiblity.

IN SIMPLE TERMS:---Several Mid size quakes have happened in the South Western Pacific over the past few days. I am still very concerned of a large Earthquake on the West Coast of the ConUS. One can see the activity and the limited activity in that area. I suspect pressures are increasing along the shelf plates from the lack of activity. This is just my personal observation but, just something to watch in the upcoming days, weeks and months.


I really appreciate the great comments you all leave. I try to always reply back if you leave a question or a REQUEST. And please leave comments on the Blog good or bad as all are welcome.
