The official tropical weather thread 2017

[redmanjp]

Some of these deaths sound like Final Destination Irma Edition. They cheat death from the storm directly but then died under various circumstances or freak accidents

[TriP]

The system is being described as “an area of disturbed weather” but, as it barrels towards the southern Caribbean, there is a 70 per cent chance of it turning into a “tropical cyclone” by this weekend.

The system was 1930 kilometres east of the Windward Islands (Trinidad, Tobago and Barbados) and was heading west at 24 km/h

because i see one of my padnas abroad had the generator in their garage (cant have it outside while hurricane going on)
and door open for plugs to run to the house for the fridge/cellphones/lights etc

[Dave]

Supposed to have a vent kit to prevent the monoxide poisoning and a feed through to plug on so that the generator is kept isolated.

Tropical Cyclone 15

[sMASH]

Jose just sucking up the energy from the west Atlantic sea there.
Any system that moves in will not get a much energy.

Isobars right around keeping it there.

Bermuda triangle generated.

Maria going to be another Cat 4 monster in 48 hrs

http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCDAT5+shtml/180249.shtml?

Analyses from CIMSS at the University of Wisconsin suggest that
Maria is currently experiencing light to moderate southwesterly
shear. However, all indications are that the shear should diminish
during the next 24-48 h, which should allow steady to rapid
strengthening. The Rapid Intensification Index of the SHIPS model
forecast better than a 50 percent chance of 25-30 kt of
strengthening during the next 24 h, and about a 35 percent chance
of 55 kt of strengthening during the next 48 h. Based on this, the
intensity forecast has been increased to show Maria becoming a
major hurricane in 24 h and a category 4 hurricane in 48 h. Late in
the forecast period, a combination of land interaction and
increasing shear should cause some weakening. The new intensity
forecast is near the upper edge of the guidance in best overall
agreement with the HWRF.

[redmanjp]

as i said a couple weeks ago we now in the peak of hurricane season so every day we have to be watching eastwards

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Still waiting on the so called heavy rain and thundershowers the met office said we would get last night into this morning
