Official Hurricane Season Thread (Swings and Roundabouts))

I am not familiar with this map. Are the numbers in hours? If so, it's parked right on top of me in 5/6 days?

 

looks like it will dissipate. ill guess the one in the gulf right now starts trending eastward. the new euro sort of suggests that - and they almost always do anyway.

 

Yes, hours. Each line is a different model.

It's mainly gonna be a rain maker, but the impacts don't appear to be great for NC.

With this so much can change though

 

Have done absolutely no research but I would imagine the gulf temps are not all that conducive to hurricanes. It's been relatively cool this year compared the past couple years I feel like. Now, after typing this out, I'm probably going to be completely wrong.

Also, I'll never understand why people say we are "due for a big one". Fuck you buddy and quit making my relatives nervous.


EDIT: I'm sure there are a lot of alternative facts associated with this liberal fake news https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...which-could-mean-explosive-springtime-storms/

 

Ha yeah we had one of the warmest winters of all-time, if not the warmest. The water will always be warm enough, it just depends on others factors if theyll develop.

Mid-gulf surface temps are already in the mid 80s.

 

See edit

Also, I was somewhat basing it off my pool water that has been dick shrinkin cold which is abnormal for this time of year. Pool water =/= Gulf of Mexico water I guess.

 

Scroll up and read the alabamawx article. Sea temp is 2 degrees above what is needed but some conductive heat isnt great

 

and heeerree we go

 

And bret is on the board

 

GOOO

 

we didn't. Fucked up my town pretty good.

 

Rollin along at 30mph

 

Booked a cruise for the end of June next year. Great idea Hail Southern, great idea.

 

Well shit

 

this is honestly maybe just the 3rd biggest rain maker along the gulf coast in the past month. of course that is why this one is a pain in the ass.

 

lomcevak do tropical systems just repeatedly throw out boundary lines causing the continous rain shields? In other words, what mechanically is happening up in the atmosphere? I guess we generally deal with fronts and random convections here so seeing giant rain shields isnt very common here

 

There is a TD? I thought it was just another batch of summer thunder storms.

 

tropical storm emily outta nowhere

 

Fuckin A...flying home from Phoenix and supposed to land at 4:00 pm

 

Dude I'm in SW Fla right now. WTF is a tropical depression. And when is it going to stop raining

 

boy that rain sure has you triggered

 

Dude I got plans to take a yacht to the keys and stay at the nicest house you've ever seen with bitches and blow. You're goddamn right it does.

 

Probably raining for the next 1.5 days sorry man

 

I imagine a snowflake would allow this tropical depression to keep him on the mainland.

 

Sounds like a good time.

 

That breaks my heart man.

 

Hey, Chris Christie! Settle down!

It's so pretty

 

Going fishing in the gulf this weekend so I was not happy to see this thread bumped.

 

Surf is pretty wild in the outer banks. Got off the beach probably about a half hour before it was going to be impassable. Lots of folks were still out there partying. Glhf.

 

I'm not too impressed with that invest right now. Lot of shear out ahead of the system from Florida to Hispanola.

 

A direct hit on Galveston/Houston or Corpus Christi and I may buy a boat

 

I mean if it's going to happen somebody's got to get people their money

 

7 day QPF. Houston we have a problem.

 

That will be insane for a city like Houston that already has major flooding issues with normal storms.

Also New Orleans needs to be on alert too with their recent flooding. A couple of inches of rain keeps the water around, not to mention what happens if the convection moves east towards Louisiana.
