CLOSED 8-13-17 FLORIDA/ALABAMA WEATHER
NWS tampa..........Aug 13 2017
This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for West Central And Southwest
Florida.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.
...THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
Thunderstorms during the morning hours will be over the coastal
waters of the Gulf of Mexico, with storms developing onshore by
midday. Higher chances for storms will move further inland with
time during the afternoon and early evening hours. Any storms will
be capable of gusty winds, heavy rainfall, and frequent
lightning...however no organized severe weather is expected. The
main threat from any storms will be localized flooding due to the
slow movement of the storms today.

folks around the 22nd-23rd we need to watch carefully this new wave that came off Africa..most models develop it and have it near florida....way too early yet to believe but..we Are coming up to the peak of season and it seems things will be getting very active, tropics wise.

Morning Largo and all.
My cloud did produce a little yesterday. Got .11 out of it. It's rained 9 of 12 days but generally the nickel/dime variety with a total of 1.86"
We have TD8 but it is of no threat.
Yeah, that wave will bear watching. GFS, Euro, CMC all develop it and have it taking the low road. They are also eerily close on placement being 10 days out. Here is each model at 240 hours.

Re: CLOSED 8-13-17 FLORIDA/ALABAMA WEATHER
Good Morning everyone! I ended up with 1" in the bucket yesterday. I was hoping for more early AM rains to cool the air down here. I enjoyed working in the yard yesterday after the rain stopped.
Hmm... Those models on that wave are kind of interesting, where is our shear dammit!!

My bloodline personally favors the Red Raiders out in that part of the country. Both parents and little sis worked there. I was in Lubbock for 6 years.

A lot of scattered showers around this weekend and even this AM. However, my shield held on and I only got a trace. Now if the mosquitos would leave I would be thrilled.
Largo, If a hurricane is coming up here, I leave regardless of strength. You can replace your home and belongings, you can't replace your life or the life of one of your family members. And even if you survive it, why would you put yourself or a loved one through that? It isn't like you are going to protect your property in any form or fashion during a storm. Hopefully we don't have to go through this anytime soon.

yes your right of course, ive been here just about 40 years now in the same place and ive yet to see a hurricane come right over my house,so I guess what they say about our shield is kinda true..old timers keep saying hurricanes always go somewhere else or..lose their punch before they get here......me myself..i don't want to see a hurricane coming over my house lol..waterdipper wrote:A lot of scattered showers around this weekend and even this AM.

I am inland where the surge is a non issue. But I am on a ridge meaning when the beast come's ashore I get slammed since winds increase with altitude. I have been in numerous hurricanes from CAT 1 to CAT 5. When a hurricane becomes a major it don't matter the CAT Number, at any given time these storms can slam you with gust as high as 200mph. A CAT 3-4 did more damage to my house than any of the CAT5s..A CAT 3 put three trees through my walls and roof of a brick home. I stay for all of them but I recommend you leave when a storm reaches CAT3. Remember if you plan to evacuate LEAVE EARLY! or you may ride out a major in a car...NOT GOOD!

ok thanks and will do, I know most folks here are working thru the daytime hours so I try to keep the blog going, especially in the stormy days. next few weeks tropical wise looks to be very active storm wise..maybe one after the other whew...im really hoping this 91 soon to be Harvey, does what 99L did..recurve back out into the Atlantic..it could be a strong one once it gets close to us.BillsfaninSoFla wrote:LargoFL wrote:ok too much from me lol..BBL..

Tropical Storm Harvey Discussion Number 2
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL092017
500 PM AST Thu Aug 17 2017
An Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft found a well-defined
circulation in the low pressure area east of the Lesser Antilles,
with the center near a cluster of sheared, but strong, convection.
The aircraft data suggest that the maximum winds are near 35 kt
and that the central pressure is near 1004 mb. Based on these
data, the disturbance is upgraded to Tropical Storm Harvey.
The initial motion is 270/16. There is no change to the forecast
philosophy since the previous advisory. A deep-layer ridge to the
north of the system should steer it quickly just north of due west
through the forecast period, with this motion expected to bring the
system through the Lesser Antilles and into the eastern Caribbean
Sea in 12-24 h, into the central Caribbean by 48-72 h, and to the
western Caribbean by 96-120 h. One adjustment is that the 96-120 h
points have been nudged a little southward in response to a shift in
the guidance, and thus now lie closer to Central America than on
the previous forecast. The forecast track again lies near the
center of the tightly clustered guidance envelope and the various
consensus models.
The system is in an area of moderate easterly vertical shear, and
the large-scale models suggest that light/moderate shear should
continue through at least 72 h. The conflicting forecast scenarios
alluded to in the previous advisory remain, with the SHIPS and
LGEM models still showing steady intensification while the GFS and
ECMWF models still forecast degeneration to an easterly wave over
the central Caribbean. The new intensity forecast again follows the
trend of the SHIPS/LGEM models, but it remains on the low side of
the guidance envelope out of respect for the GFS/ECMWF. The 96-120 h
intensities have been decreased a little due to the forecast track
showing more land interaction.
FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS
INIT 17/2100Z 13.0N 55.8W 35 KT 40 MPH
12H 18/0600Z 13.1N 58.3W 35 KT 40 MPH
24H 18/1800Z 13.4N 61.6W 40 KT 45 MPH
36H 19/0600Z 13.7N 65.1W 45 KT 50 MPH
48H 19/1800Z 14.0N 68.8W 45 KT 50 MPH
72H 20/1800Z 14.5N 76.5W 55 KT 65 MPH

consensus models.
The system is in an area of moderate easterly vertical shear, and
the large-scale models suggest that light/moderate shear should
continue through at least 72 h. The conflicting forecast scenarios
alluded to in the previous advisory remain, with the SHIPS and
LGEM models still showing steady intensification while the GFS and
ECMWF models still forecast degeneration to an easterly wave over
the central Caribbean. The new intensity forecast again follows the
trend of the SHIPS/LGEM models, but it remains on the low side of
the guidance envelope out of respect for the GFS/ECMWF. The 96-120 h
intensities have been decreased a little due to the forecast track
showing more land interaction.
