GOM and 92L

#1 Postby **Ivanhater** » Thu Jul 28, 2005 1:14 pm

ok gommers, this can be the thread for us to discuss 92l since early indications are calling for a gulf storm

Guess we better start preparing in Pensacola.

Others must think we are so paranoid here in Pensacola, but I guess considering whats happened to us in the past year...its to be expected.

Does west central florida have to keep an eye on 92L?

A bit too early to say but I'll start the -removed- by -removed- it away from the Gulf. Ya see, I've been waiting for a lull of some sort so I could jump on the opportunity to rent a beach house out in Galveston. I hesitated all of July and when I saw Gert go into Mexico I immediately booked a beach house for August 5th through the 8th. Now there are talks of 92L developing and perhaps moving into the Gulf. On top of that some homebrew development in the Gulf is possible. All this while I'm trying to get a vacation in order. So much for this LULL I was hoping for. LOL!!!

I would think so. IMO

I would think all of peninsular Florida should keep their eye on this for now.

Johnny: Well, hate to say it, but climo. says August isn't the best month to pick.

Any guesses on the intensity once it's in the GOM?

Its currently a disorganized tropical wave. People shouldnt even be calling this a GOM storm, much less discussing intensity.

Couldn't agree more. This is not doing anything anytime soon....IMO.

If it is supposed to be here in S Florida by Monday then heed does need to be taken - don't panic, just get prepared with what you can IF it is to become something. Why wait til the last minute if you haven't already gotten your supplies in?

I agree, not much of a "storm" right now. Also, appears to be higher in Lat. than other gommers this year.

1030L 28 July Tropical Update:

Tropical Storm Franklin has finally decided to get moving and is accelerating out to sea toward its death in the cold waters of the North Atlantic.

The first of the waves that we have been tracking is now east-northeast of the Leeward Islands. It has flared up over the past 24 hours and may be developing into a depression. The good news for Eglin is that it is already close to 20 degrees latitude and systems which form that far to the north in the Atlantic usually become east coast, rather than Gulf, storms

Are they being optimistic or realistic??

Nooooo! We're finally getting our shutters, on Monday! I've been waiting two months for them. I don't want them to be delayed again.

**sets up a fan to blow the storm back into the ocean for a few more days**
