Go north, young storm! Go north! But, not west! I can hear the people in Texas saying: “Take me out coach, I’ve had enough!”

Great to see you!

The forecasts are calling for increased forward speed, but I haven't figured out exactly when that will occur. Looks like landfall around, or below big bend Monday evening, emerging into the Atlantic near the GA/FL border Tues. morning intact as a TS.

Local Tampa weather Channel 10 said we shouldn't be surprised if Colin makes landfall further south. This would fit with historical N/E Gulf coast forecasts, which always end up making landfall E or S of early predictions.

All the Colin/03L Satellite images are located in NHC table here. The one you like is called Rainbow. There are other cool ones, including Funktop.

Ha! I was "Distraughty Nurse" when the ping graphics wouldn't work. They have now been dusted off, misted with WD40, and a bit of Duck tape for good measure. We are back in working order.

Looks like it’s going to skirt us and we’ll probably get outer bands over the next couple of days.
