Too bad champion blogger Jeff Masters is on vacation.

Jeff Masters is the best. He provides factual info from someone who knows the topic intimately. And more importantly, he can speculate intelligently without being sensational. He called the need to evacuate New Orleans on Tues or Wed, if I recall correctly. I've been enjoying his series excerpting his recent interview in the Ft. Walton paper.

That interview is published on the web site I noticed.

Wish we could get some rain from it. But it looks as if it is not going to be coming up our direction. Pooh!

Here is a link to the real time infrared loop of the storm.
Here is a link to the real time water vapor loop of the storm -- quite cool to look at.[/QUOT

TD One, please go east...we need the rain, but I don't need to be driving through you on my way back to SoWal on Tuesday... :roll:

Re: Trouble in the Tropics...

Now reached tropical storm status. We could use a little rain, but our beaches cannot take a pounding!

Re: Trouble in the Tropics...

Yep, it is official -- Tropical Storm Alberto has formed.

Re: Trouble in the Tropics...

At least it looks like it will stay to the east which means Alberto won't take out all our walkovers like Arlene did. What a mess.
