The National Hurricane Center is monitoring two systems in the Atlantic with chances of tropical cyclone formation.

In the central tropical Atlantic, one system — named Invest 96L — is expected to see favorable conditions for development as it makes its way northwest. As of its 8 a.m. update, the NHC gives the system a 70% chance to develop into a tropical depression in the next seven

Florida for sure doesn’t need any hurricanes this year. Insurance companies are already itchy to leave. Some have already.

The Carolina coast one is moving away and the second will fall in behind north and east of Bermuda.

This is hanging over Florida like a Sword of Damocles. If the big one hits Miami, then there won’t be enough U-Hauls for folks wanting to leave Florida.

The one off the Carolina coast is heading East. They should have said something then it was over Tennessee.

Another Business/Economy Topic abuse. Your Illinois lack of knowledge re: tropical systems is on display.

Wow, the NOAA has changed the way it presents the information: used to be they had lots of little maps so we could see the history and forecasts easily.

And this source of “news”???? The one near NC has 40% or *less* chance of becoming a sub-tropical cyclone windspeeds *under* 40mph).

And *both* are predicted to turn to the NE. The one near NC may bring rain and high winds to the coast as it passes along, the other will run up the middle of the Atlantic.

Neither is forecast to go anywhere near Florida!!!!!

Strong cold front passed over east coast yesterday

Temps went from 95 to 70 overnight

The front will push the systems far out into Atlantic

DeSantis needs a hurricane to bump him in the polls.

What is a cold front? Asking for my neighbor in Texas.

South Carolina Ping   

Please ping me if you see an article that would be of interest to fellow SC FReepers.

If you'd like to be on or off the South Carolina ping list, just click Private Reply below and drop me a FReepmail.

Note from the NHC:

Environmental conditions appear generally favorable for some additional development over the next day or so as the system gradually accelerates east-northeastward into the northwestern Atlantic Ocean.

In other words, doubtful it will cause any damage to SC.

Thanks for the ping, FRiend!

Here we go… another hurricane season. 😕

Batten down the hatches.

You’re welcome!

A hurricane would bury DeSantis. he’s not prepared to help Florida now he’s long gone from this State. The insurance companies have increased the rates so far that no one will be able to live in Florida.
