Thanks for your expertise — the one behind it bothers me a little more than Fred — what is you thought?

Tropical wave Invest 95L has a 30% chance of development over the next five days. Far too soon to tell if it will be a threat to U.S. interests.

It is a race between storm names and Covid variants—who can get to the end of the alphabet first?

The name “Fred” does not, in and of itself inspire fear, shock or awe. Fred sounds like everybody’s brother in law or friendly neighbor or the Cable Guy.
Even using the Italian version of “Federico” would lift more eyebrows, more blood pressure counts.

They are naming every flipping sneeze !Pikachu_Dad's Corollary of Tropical Storms: If it isn't a Category 5 hurricane aimed directly at the fragile Louisiana coast, then it must be a flipping sneeze.

Buoy distance from storm. Heading. Wind speed. Wave height. Wind direction. And a nice picture of each station.

A frequent discussion topic on these threads bemoans the number of inoperable buoys in a perpetual state of disrepair.

So do watch out if you produce a major flatus event. They might start naming them.

““Fred” does not, in and of itself inspire fear, shock or awe. Fred sounds like everybody’s brother in law...”
Yes. I am embarrassed by the name of this storm on behalf of my cousin Fred. He’s the guy who shows up to help put the deck out back and shows up with a box of pretzels and some beer.

I’m pretty sick of them. We’re getting more and more in Florida. They used to go up the Atlantic coast. Now they all go to the gulf and cause havoc.
