Will that thing ever go away? :eek:

 

Apparently not. Just saw the weather report - they

expect the "Spawn" to stay in the Gulf for several

days and maybe reform into a depression.

 

I'm guessing if it turns into a tropical storm it will be "T.S. Nadine" -

who da thunk it? A sex-changing T.S.!! :)

 

ps. Not that there's anything wrong with that!

After research, I was wrong. It would be Nadine.

1. Are you kidding me?!

2. Nadine? Did I miss a few letters in between?

 

Welcome back to the party MM!

 

We had Isaac, Joyce, Kirk, Leslie and Michael.

 

This will technically be a "new" storm so it would

be Nadine (unless another ones forms before)

And a couple of the models show it going from the Gulf across Florida and into the Atlantic AND THEN TURNING BACK!

What?? I am not understanding that spaghetti screen too well...

I am supposed to leave on Sat. out of Miami... What are the chances it will stop us from boarding there?? Dang it, this is he first time in years that I didnt get the insurance, honestly kept forgetting to do it... my mind has been on other things lately.... stupid stupid stupid... I know already...

So, you seem really up on these things... Chances of being in Miami on the 8th/ Or perhaps the gulf of Mexico druing the following week ??

From a seasoned Floridian, almost 0% chance of it coming anywhere near Miami. It will most likely go back across northern florida/panhandle area and then head out towards Bermuda. Pack your bags buddy, you're going cruisin'!

BTW, Go Blue!

You will be fine getting out. Where you go from there

will depend on where this very confused transgendered

storm decides to go.

The spaghetti models this am look even more confused. But the local guys aren't convinced it'll strengthen back into a named storm. *sigh* They are predicting a very rainy birthday weekend for me though. Yay!

Sometimes I really hate this time of year.

Well that's the the NWS is calling it.

Sounds like a b-movie title. :)

 

The remnants of the storm are hanging

out in the northern Gulf.

 

40% chance of Tropical Cyclone formation in the

next 48 hours.

 

Stay tuned!

 

I saw this on the news this morning. I was away on vacation, and really couldn't figure out what happened to Isaac after losing track of it.

 

This is wild!

Oh boy... Several days - huh? Cruising during hurricane season is nerve racking. Two weeks before sailing I'll start spending a lot of time on the weather channel. I want a bright sunny day for the sail away!

For those interested, what basically happened is 3/4 of Isaac hit La and then went up and all the way over to Mass while dissipating. The other 1/4 broke off and hung out in the Gulf. Since this isn't the majority of Isaac, it will be renamed. Had it been the larger portion, it would still be called Isaac.

 

Joyce, Kirk, Leslie, Michael were all in the Atlantic and not a threat to land. (Leslie may still be and and is around Bermuda...)
