The yucatan area that the GFS is picking up is energy left over from Stan and the soon to arrive energy from this wave in my interpretation of it.
Interesting indeed.
VERRRY interesting....now excuse me while I scold myself
for letting my -removed- excite me...LOL I love rain too much...
I can relate....I love it too.......it's a rush
To be honest I don't really get a rush unless its rain and nothing
more
The reason I wishcasted this was because it looks like just rain and not
anything bad---and I need the rain...I don't think conditions favor a
developing system with regards to high winds...but I'll take the rain
from it
Now the night before Charley was a different story for me...
I was in constant fear of seeing my home destroyed until
Charley veered right and hit near Punta Gorda. I dodged that
bullet but unfortunately Punta Gorda was really hammered.
I hope and pray that I never see a major storm.
I can handle the rain, but winds and surge become really
dangerous for my location close to the Bay.
As I have learned today, all it takes is a pressure gradient
between a ridge and something as minor as a strong
tropical wave to cause damage...yup those gusts to 50 did
minor screen damage
Anyway...most the rain missed me--- I got just 0.03 inches
