We drove west on I-10 today and this is what we encountered near Live Oak, Florida. We pulled to the side of the road for a time because the rain was more than the wipers could clear for safe driving.
Wind tore the awning from a business on U.S. 19 between Crystal River and Homassaa Springs, Fl., Thursday afternoon. Severe stroms hammered the area, causing wind damage and flooding. A tornado was reported, by a trained spotter, about ten miles South of this location. Check the series for more storm and flood pictures.

This year's SSTs compared to last year (March 6):
There you go again Astro, trying to start another argument! LOL Yes, Astro you are correct. It is much more interesting to see an exchange of information rather than unfriendly debate. It impresses no one.
Early start as in seeing a storm form in May. Pointing out when a specific storm will form, I don't think can be reasonably given out at this time.

My background consists of nothing officially impressive because I just graduated high school a month ago. I have read books my whole childhood and learned a whole ton from watching Joe Bastardi, and from being on this site being able to converse with experts. I still have a lot to learn and I hope I get the privilege to go to a college with a Meteorology program.
these numbers are current pick with current conditions
these numbers will change as current conditions change
we wait on eastern waves and see the angle and strengh they begin rolling off
lots left to come into play current indices are showing enhanced activity watch east pacfic also part of the tale see what becomes of it

Those interested in the science of GW and CC,as well as his tropical expertise.. enjoy His entries on the matters at hand globally,...and admire his openness to dissent on the matters he post and on occasion actually interacts with folks in this entry.
I know of no other PHD's blog in the Blogoshere that does such.
So for that, Im always grateful to him for allowing us to add our lil slices of the pie here as well.
Hawk!!!!
She should gradually regain her organization as she continues to increase her distance from the upper low to the northeast, as well as TC Tomas.
Its March ...LOL
So talking about an argument will start an argument? Is this a Self-reference?
Seriously though, we do tend to have a debate every time someone alludes to global warming, but the debates aren't always unfriendly and can become rather informative.

before ya know it
it will be 26 by late april
27 in early may
28 by the start of june
Chat room types? I go in the chat room occasionally yet I still have time to check the blog. But during the hurricane season the comments will come quickly and any time 10 minutes pass without one comment the blog will be said to have "died".
According to post 661, that kind of post would be met with a permaban. Which is kind of exaggerating the forbiddeness of the topic. And AGW isn't a word, it's an abbrevation.
Remember Epsilon? It became a hurricane over 21-24C SSTs and moderate shear.
That was a good "LINK" I have to keep that for future reference. When I see the GW debates, it always reminds me of the old "Abbot & Costello routine about "Niagara Falls or "Susquehanna". The old timers will know what I mean. Maybe somewhere, somehow, someone will post a YouTube of the skit to show you how the GW debate is like that. It is really funny, you should watch it when you have time.
woosh!
Good evening and goodnight!
Just popping in and out...
Making up for the hour lost this morning.
Talking about me behind my back again are you? ;)

going away from Australia but towards New Caledonia?

White tigers? Yes. Albino alligators? Heard of that.
But blue crawfish?
You better believe it.
A new exhibit at the Audubon Insectarium features a rare and unexpected member of the "Red Swamp" crawfish species. What's different? You guessed it. It's blue.
"Most visitors ask if they taste the same," said Jayme Necaise, director of animals and visitor programs at the Audubon Insectarium, located in the U.S. Custom House on Canal Street. "None of us have ever had the heart to put them in a pot and boil them up."
blue_crawfish_photographed.JPGMichael DeMocker/The Times-PicayuneIn the wild, one of about every 10,000 crawfish is blue.
The crawfish on display aren't actually the blue critters that are found in the wild. Experts estimate about 1 of every 10,000 turn that color.
Instead, they are crawfish that Juliette Delabbio, director of Northwestern State University's Aquaculture Research Center, turned blue in her lab by altering the crustaceans' environment. Delabbio is expected to publish a paper soon on the blue crawfish phenomenon.
Audubon officials says the color change is likely the result of factors such as the crustaceans' diet, the water they live in, and their exposure to light.
Whoops! Caught again!
The decade from 2000 to 2009 was the warmest in the modern record. "Piecing Together the Temperature Puzzle" illustrates how NASA satellites enable us to study possible causes of climate change. The video explains what role fluctuations in the solar cycle, changes in snow and cloud cover, and rising levels of heat-trapping gases may play in contributing to climate change.

Sorry, but the "Three Stooges" routine was not as funny as Abbott & Costello! You are giving the younger bloggers the wrong impression. They might grow up to believe that everything is a hoax and made up. We can't have that now can we?
Since its now 9:26 CDT
9:25?
Loop
Anyway...goodnight!
Monday will come early tomorrow.
Thankfully there are still a few sand dunes left, especially if you head east some to protected land. Between development and hurricanes, things are pretty flat now. That being said, kind of a nice place. :)
Someone got more sleep than they were supposed to last night.....LOL.
