Tropical Storm Cindy 6/21/17 Cindy Kills 10yr old on Alabama Coast

Current visible loop (static image).....   even the cloud tops that blow up can't stay over the center!

Better yet, the floater!  I don't recall the animated gif having the option to have the lat/lon overlay, but I really like that.

Y'all know I  like the numbers  :-) That Vortex msg was about 2.5 hours ago

she's a nudist what do you expect!!!

That's a lot of shear out there!

Not impressed with Cindy, but I guess it's a good one to dip your toes into for the season. There's a lot of dry air being entrained.

Wish the dry was here..I am at 5.71 for the event

and you were already quite wet before the event. Hope you get some drying soon, Gomey.

Dang gomey. Let's see if we can get you to 100" by year end. So far you're on pace.

I am at 20.77 for the month of June so far.
I am at 51.80 inches of rain for the year..

So 100 is not out of the question.

Your math is off by .01" but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.    

Based on the forecast you could easily be at 55" by months end. I am short of 15" thus far.

Appropriate post here then, doesn't include Bama, but some Tampa area numbers...
