Heads up Gulf of Mexico coastal dwellers. Unusual situation with two tropical storm systems taking aim at the Gulf of Mexico simultaneously. Could make for some interesting times next week. Perhaps we'll witness the Fujiwhara Effect? Stay tuned...

Laura and Marco are my cousins! They live in San Diego, though.

I’ve been in a lot of hurricane cones of uncertainty. But never in 2 cones at once.
Yay 2020.

Thanks as usual for doing the normal fantastic job that you do NN,no one better!
I have been watching Laura for a few days now with the first track pointed directly at us which was actually reassuring.When a storm is pointed directly at your home as Laura was a few days ago odds on it keeping that track or really low.Its more likely to go either north or south of us since they don't go in the same direction forever,they always move.This one moved South and I'm glad.
We are now out of the cone and unless it moves north we wont get any really bad issues from Laura.
This is a storm to watch however.
Some of the forecasts are for it to move over Hispanola and Cuba and still stay at 50 knots and keep its circulation which means its a serious storm. Lots of times they lose a lot when the center crosses land especially the mountains of both islands, we shall see.
Once again we go into prime time storm season without any meaningful buoy info thanks to NOAA.
Key to this storm,information wise, would have been Molasses reef light.This info has been gone for over a year which supports my argument that much of NOAA needs to be privatized.

It would appear God is angry with our nation.

The Fukushima Effect

[miserare]

Oh, boy! This situation looks like a doozy.

Unprecedented?

I don’t like that word, when hurricanes are involved.

Either or looks like Louisiana is going to get hit.

[CrimsonTidegirl]

We need some good rain in Western Alabama. Hopefully this will be an opportunity.

I just hope we don’t experience any tornadoes.

Hurricane thread bump.

[Ron H.]

Seems I need to watch the development of this storm a bit closer now as I’m just 45 miles or so North by slightly NE of Houston up I-69 near Cleveland area. Last time Hurricane Rita put 5 large gaping holes in my homes roof and uprooted about 4 very large Oak trees on my property. Don’t need any more of that for sure.
