Will #4 make it across the Atlantic?

#1 Postby Josephine96 » Mon Aug 21, 2006 5:20 pm

Ok folks.. Kinda curious what everybody thinks here..

Do you guys think #4 will survive the trek across the Atlantic or curve well before any potential coastal threats?

Granted it's almost 4,000 miles from me :lol: So it'll take forever to make the long trek near the US.. but I'm curious..

I am going to have to say...

-50% chance of recurve

-30% chance of reaching Barbados

-20% chance of going further west than that.

I think:

60% chance of recurve

20% chance of crossing north of the Caribbean

20% chance of passing through the Caribbean

I do not think it wil reach the US but Bermuda may want to watch this one since there is a chance it could make it that far west. I think 30% chance of it reaching bermuda and 5% or less chance of it hitting the US. At this time I do think that the cyclone will stay north of the islands.

I am in Puerto Rico more worried about the Central Atlantic Wave than TD Four. Tropical Depression 4/Debby will pass very far NE of the Caribbean.

I agree. Even though the models don't make much of it, I'm still a bit concerned about that one as it approaches the islands.

TD4 - whether it makes it to be Debby or not - won't affect anything but the Cape Verdes.

Bold prediction. And logical i might add. But ive learned when tracking tropical cyclones there no such thing as being 100% sure on anything.

It will go where it wants to go. They have a mine of their own at times. So I can't say where it will go. I bet it will not cruve when it said is too. I think it will stay west for a few days then recruve to the nw. IMO

I give it only a 20% chance of reaching the US. My prediction doesn't even take it past 60°W.
