or vice-versa It now appears that 90L (the wave behind TD TWO) may become named before TD TWO, if TD TWO can survive the next several days. If it does, the environment may become more conducive for strengthening and it could become Bill, but it will be tough. TD TWO hasn't been useless to us, even if it disapates, it has destabilized the atmosphere in its wake, making conditions ripe for 90L. Lets hope 90L stays north of the Islands, gets pulled north and out to sea and doesn't become a Caribbean storm. That would be our best shot at good swell and would effect the least amount of lives.
Invest 90L This just in, invest 90L has now been upgraded to a high-potential tropical threat, meaning that is has a greater than 50% chance of becoming a tropical cyclone in the next 2 days. http://www.stormpulse.com/
you all see that? TD 2 has just dissipated. this is everyone's fault but my own. everyone jinxed the storm and it died. thanks a lot for ruining my hopes of good surf down here...at least when the surf sucks i can spearfish down here.
Development of 90L seems imminent, but to get good swell it needs to go north of the islands. The remains of TD TWO could regenerate, there is still a good circulation at the surface, if that stays intact, in a day or two it could be moving into more favorable conditions, but I'm more interested 90L, all the reliable models have it becoming a hurricane!
can we just let this thread go to sleep so the surf gods arent checking it and saying "suckers you'll talking about it so now you wont get no surf".
And has now been named Anna? We also now have TD 3 and another invest right behind that, we gotta be gettin somethin soon.
Tropical relationships Ok, so this is what happened. Sweet, cute Ana started to form, but she was very intimidated by the younger, larger, big bad Bill. Aware that Bill was trying to make a move, Ana tried to hide away. As it turns out, Bill is actually a pretty nice guy, so Ana decided to come back, this time showing more of herself. Bill was like "right on!" and developed even more to impress Ana. That's what happened. Meanwhile, a very jealous Claudette, want's to steal Bill from Ana, but she is still too far away.
Swell is imminent Judging by the NHC projected paths, I'm thinking late Wed/ early Thursday for our first pulse from Ana, thats if she holds together. Then the bigger stuff fills in Late Friday from what will be Hurricane Bill, and maybe a third round early the following week from the wave behind that. I know its way to early to call, but its fun to speculate and see how things turn out. I'd rather be disappointed than caught off guard, and I think the odds are in our favor.
Maybe they'll all get involved in some sort of love triangle, that will then evolve into a Ménage à trois. This will of course involve them all combining into a Cat 5, which then stalls 200 miles off our coast for 10-12 years, giving us offshore winds and head high waves the whole time. In all seriousness though, has what you're referring to as Bill, actually been named Bill yet? I'm assuming that you're just referring to TD 3 that way, correct?
I know, but did you see the wind? That's a big disappointment to me, I was hopin it would veer off and just give us the swell with no wind, but I guess this forecast has it smashing into us. Oh well, at least if it does hit us we'll have that three hours of glass the morning after until the wind kills it.
