TS Fay rained on me all night last night. It looks like it may clear up for a while now.

Oh dear I just told Mr. Ditter there wasn't one out there. We are planning on a week out of the state starting Thursday, here's hoping it doesn't come to Texas.

I am known to my friends as the human barometer.
This am I was dreaming about my pain, unable to wake up. I am really hurting now, even after breakfast. I have a feeling we are in for some good storming.

I was looking at that this morning as I was checking on Fay. Fay has ended our drought.

Whoa!!!
My son has been waiting for 10 days to get a home owner’s insurance binder on a Florida home he is buying. There wasn’t a business day last week that any agents could write Florida coverage.
Got it paid for and bound coverage this morning. Hope we get through a Wednesday closing before the forecasts are announced!

Recon data says this is Gustav... not sure if they’ll upgrade before 5 or not, but it’s possible.

Does anyone here subscribe to Larry Cosgrove’s e mail list? I had a crash and lost last Sunday’s e mail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TROPICAL STORM GUSTAV DISCUSSION NUMBER 9
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL072008
500 AM EDT WED AUG 27 2008
GUSTAV HAS BEEN HUGGING THE NORTH COAST OF SOUTHWESTERN HAITI THIS MORNING WITH STRONG BANDS OF THUNDERSTORMS TO THE EAST AND SOUTH OF THE CENTER. AN AIR FORCE RESERVE RECONNAISSANCE PLANE FOUND A MINIMUM PRESSURE OF 998 MB AND RELIABLE SFMR WINDS OF 45-50 KT. THE INITIAL INTENSITY WILL BE SET AT 50 KT. LITTLE INTENSIFICATION IS FORESEEN UNTIL THE CENTER MOVES FARTHER AWAY FROM THE HIGH TERRAIN OF HAITI. THEREAFTER...A STEADY INCREASE IN STRENGTH IS LIKELY... ESPECIALLY AFTER THE CENTER MOVES INTO THE MORE OPEN WATERS NORTHWEST OF JAMAICA. VERTICAL SHEAR IS FORECAST TO BE LIGHT...AND COMBINED WITH THE DEEP WARM WATERS...RAPID INTENSIFICATION COULD OCCUR IN A COUPLE OF DAYS WHILE THE CENTER IS NEAR OR SOUTH OF WESTERN CUBA.
THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS REDUCED FROM EARLIER DUE TO THE INITIAL WEAKENING BUT STILL SHOWS THE STORM BECOMING A MAJOR HURRICANE IN THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA. IN THE LONGER-TERM... THE GLOBAL MODELS HAVE A VARIETY OF UPPER-WIND PATTERNS...BUT IN GENERAL THE
UPPER WINDS APPEAR TO BE FAVORABLE ENOUGH TO SUPPORT A MAJOR HURRICANE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT BOTH THE GFDL AND HWRF ARE MORE AGGRESSIVE THAN THE OFFICIAL FORECAST.
FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS
INITIAL 27/0900Z 18.6N 73.5W 50 KT
12HR VT 27/1800Z 19.0N 74.3W 50 KT
24HR VT 28/0600Z 19.1N 75.6W 60 KT
36HR VT 28/1800Z 19.2N 77.2W 70 KT
48HR VT 29/0600Z 19.6N 78.8W 80 KT
72HR VT 30/0600Z 21.0N 82.5W 100 KT
96HR VT 31/0600Z 23.5N 86.0W 105 KT
