After living through Ike and the aftermath, it seems to be a little strange how much we, on the Texas coast, are hoping for a storm.

I think John Madden needs to go to work for the weather channel.

This system has had the local wx babblers perked up for a couple of days already.

Maybe if all us Texans inhale collectively, we can suck that storm into the Gulf and towards Houston.

I just had to go braggin’ we haven’t had a storm in the Tampa Bay area since 1921. I’m a hurricane nut and picked the Bay Area because I love the Gulf and Pinellas/Hillsboro has about a 1% chance of a direct hit. Mother Nature doesn’t really care about statistics, however.

SST’s in the gulf are mostly over 90F. I’d rather not have a possible Cat 3-5 storm head our way

There are some things best left unsaid. I'm holding you personally responsible if this storm wallops Tampa Bay. ;o)

As my Mom always says...be careful what you wish for. Check out the SST in the GOM. It's near boiling.

Oh boy now I can watch the weather the next couple of days and hear the readers mispronounce the Leeward Islands.

Pulling my vessel on Tuesday. This storm track has me nervous. Added to that, the St. Lucie Lock is only opening at 9:00AM and again at 4:00PM. It should be a “goat rodeo” come Thursday, getting in and thru the locks. They shut things down when the wind reaches 35 knots.

Sounds like a good plan. Still gives a couple of days to track the storm, allowing another couple of days to beat the crowd.
