Bret is Dead found lifeless OD'd on Speed!

BRET IS DEAD
He is nothing but remnants..




Today Bret is racing through the central Caribbean at 23 mph.....ZOOM,ZOOM,ZOOM!!!
2:00 PM AST Tue Jun 20
Location: 11.6°N 66.2°W
Moving: WNW at 23 mph
Min pressure: 1009 mb
Max sustained: 40 mph

As you can see the interaction with the North Coast of South America and Bret's forward speed have knocked 5mph off its wind speed..At 23mph Bret will shear it's self!! So being in an area of 30kt shear and having a high forward speed I see no intensification for Bret in the Near future...It looks like 1/2 a storm with most of the convection on the North Side..

We will see if he starts to slow later this evening....He wont live long if he don't. The same Bermuda High that is providing his speed will also try to ridge to him ...meaning he could even go faster and if so,the speed could possibly weaken Bret even more and maybe destroy him....We wait and will update later if Cindy don't interfere...lol

Bret has formed in the Atlantic...more to come

.HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT FIND THE DISTURBANCE HAS BECOME A TROPICAL STORM... As of 5:00 PM AST Mon Jun 19 the center of BRET was located near 9.4, -59.8 with movement WNW at 30 mph. The minimum central pressure was 1007 mb with maximum sustained winds of about 40 mph.

Here is Bret

more later...

As you can see wind shear ahead of the system is in the 30kt range.


Do I expect this to change? That's a tough question it looks to remain the same but as Bret strengthens it could lessen some and lift North...but for now the tendency is about the same. Meaning conditions will be marginal for development and will be gradual.


So I say it remains a tropical storm the next few days.

Now where will it go? Ok lets look at the steering currents..


WEST WE GO!!!! look at that strong Bermuda High...He may zoom through the Caribbean and that forward speed will keep Bret from ramping up. But as he moves farther West he will slow and when he does,he may go BOOM!!!..Time to watch and wait!

Another "rare" occurrence that the WU bloggers can get on the bandwagon about! Bet there is a blog post with something along the lines of "Rare Cape Verde storm forms in June"

Oh man ,now what am I going to use as a title for this one...

It'll have to say Global Warming has caused a rare Cape Verde storm.

Oh how I love satire in the evening....lol

Shear is going to beat up on poor little Bret!

He may create his own shear at 30kts forward speed...he will plow through the other shear..His best chances will start sometime Wednesday evening I feel...

He has to stay alive till then!

ya knew it was coming:

Love that old song Gomey!!!


Have you seen this pretty little forecast?  Not for us in FL, but for you........

that's great...may have to generate my own moonshine since any trace of the moon will be hidden

Love the song Gomey!

Bret is heading WNW at a fast pace..I will update the blog and forecast for Bret later today....Right now I am getting things in order before all the rains and squalls arrive from the Gulf system.

The race car is updated....lol

Poor Bret, can't get any love now that Cindy has usurped him!
