August 2, 200619 yr Author Um, I'm flying from Toronto to Miami on Monday at like midday. What do you guys think about that? Unless the airport is closed, you'll be fine.
August 2, 200619 yr Um, I'm flying from Toronto to Miami on Monday at like midday. What do you guys think about that? Might want to check with the airport before you leave.

August 2, 200619 yr I am deeply disturbed by this storm. All interests in Cuba and Florida need to watch this very carefully over the next few days. B4P, keep up the excellent work. :thumbup
August 2, 200619 yr could this be another katrina? hitting the keys while its a cat. 1, and then keeps tracking through open waters, till.... f***, i sure hope not.
August 2, 200619 yr A number of the latest model runs have dropped it a little more to the south. The NOGAPS has dropped it off the mainland, and GDFL wants to run it south of Cuba.
August 2, 200619 yr I guess we learned the lessons of the past. On Channel 10 (ABC) local news this morning, they were giving hourly updates. Nothings gonna get by them this time. Already, Home Depot. Lowes and Publix have seen a pick up in business. And the gas prices should follow suit. *gets the 20 cases of water and spam ready near the flashlights and generator..... Miami-Dade County's opt days for teachers is Tuesday and Wednesday. Schools in Dade and Broward are scheduled to begin on Monday, August 14. Let's see...........

August 3, 200619 yr Working hard on the redesign: http://hurricanewarning.blogspot.com/ This should load faster and provide more information more easily. Great job. Always helpful.
August 3, 200619 yr Great job. Always helpful. Thanks! As the storm gets closer, I hope to launch new features and bring back some old ones people like that only come out during storms.
August 3, 200619 yr As of the 11pm advisory, Chris has turned west. The NHC has adjusted the projected path further south with Florida nearly out of the cone of uncertainty. Also, the new projection has Chris remaining a tropical storm at least until it emerges into the Gulf.
August 3, 200619 yr I hope the next few advisories show the same trend moving south into Cuba instead of north into Florida.
August 3, 200619 yr Well, that's a relief. At least West Palm Beach is out of the cone of terror, I mean error.
August 3, 200619 yr Author I just posted an update to my blog as to what is happening to Chris: http://hurricanewarning.blogspot.com/
August 3, 200619 yr THE 500 AM AST POSITION...20.3 N...66.4 W. MOVEMENT TOWARD...WEST NEAR 13 MPH. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...45 MPH. MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1010 MB. Pressure up, winds way down.
August 3, 200619 yr if every storm that comes close to florida this season is going to change this much... its going to be a looooong season.
August 3, 200619 yr Author Well this one caught myself and basically anyone else with a marked interest in tropical weather offguard. No one predicted it. Though there is a fairly good chance if it holds itself together for a few days like Irene did last year, that it will regenerate. It will enter more favorable conditions starting tonight. I do not think this is a threat to South Florida anymore, though.
August 4, 200619 yr Author Chris is making a comeback. He has also been moving more northerly as of late. We are not out of the woods yet. http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/flt/t1/loop-avn.html Just an incredible indication of how much we don't know about these storms. I will do an analysis later tonight on my blog if you wanna read it.
August 4, 200619 yr Reading that, I was reminded of Jeanne, and how experts gave it for dead after it it seemed to dissipate over Hispaniola, only to reform days later, much stronger than before.
