Could this possibly happen????

#1 Postby iceangel » Thu Oct 20, 2005 4:23 pm

Is there a possibility that Wilma could slowly move into the BOC then re-emerge into the western or central GOM, and restrengthen??

thoughts???

Right now it's highly unlikely, the storm has already turned more northward what should take the system slowly toward the SE of the GOM. Then, the trough should move the cyclone NE across the Florida peninsula. If she had not turned this afternoon, I would have given some chance to this possibility.

If it would not been for the cold front moving through, then the panhandle could be in danger. Either way it pans out, western Florida still looks to be the biggest threat right now. Just the landfall may be delayed. It still does not pose any threat to the northern or central gulf coast at this time.

If this were August instead of mid October, I'd be questioning the models, however, I believe this front is for real. We're supposed to be in the upper 40's Monday night!

The very unusual early cold front is what saved us from Charley last year. I don't mind the temps being in the 70's but when it gets to be around the 40's, that is a bit too cold for me. I can't tolerate the cold well. But, if it will end the hurricane season for the northern gulf coast, so be it! Now, if only we could get snow again this year for Christmas, then I will be a happy camper! What are the odds of it happening again this winter? Almost the same as winning the powerball!

I'll second that, I lived in S Fla awhile, great weather it wasn't home though, I can remember a cold front coming down there in Dec. and the only way you could tell was a line of clouds as it passed.
I'm like you also in that if gets down to 40 it needs to snow.

Since I am actually "in" a camper in the driveway, the cooler weather lets me turn the generator off at night.

Don't need 40's, though. I won't be a happy camper then.

No I didn't read that. Wilma may not go into the BOC and reform and move NE. Even though I do feel sorry for Mexico and Florida.
