Developing low/lows...?

Well.. I just peaked at the satellites that were posted on here.. They look pretty impressive. The question is whether or not the NHC will eventually classify these things..

I personally think we will have TD 17 or a potential weak "Larry" as a rain maker for somebody.. probably Florida in the coming days..

What does the "BUMP" mean?

Tampa- when a post gets shoved down the board.. a poster can use "bump" to bring it right back up..

Josephine96 - agreed that something will likely develop in the near future.

Thanks you JCT... I like that somebody agrees

I'm still counting on the frontal system to keep the rains away from north/central FL. I still guess...Orlando and south.

( but I'm keeping my umbrella and my kyack handy ...just in case)

thanks ( from the gallery) - perhaps if I keep him flapping those wings I can generate enough wind to become a tropical depression or low!

We use "bump" when members haven't responded to a thread and there is nothing [for usually the one that started the thread] to say, so just posting "bump" gets the thread back to the top, where it will be more noticeable.

What I don't understand is to use "bump" and respond at the same time...

I believe that at least an hour should pass or if the thread is really at the bottom of page 1 or onto page 2 (what ever happens first) before it is 'just bumped' up...

I swear... I don't mean to bump my threads up so quick.. lol I apologize again if I violated the rules of "bump" etiquette

ColdFront77 · #14 Postby **ColdFront77** » Tue Sep 30, 2003 2:25 pm

John, I wouldn't consider it a "rule," perhaps "bump entiquette"

-- if you don't mean to do it, why are you doing it?

Tom- Because it's a bad habit... lol.. I swear I'll cut down on it.. I promise..

Thread drift warning...I have to agree with Tom on this one. Seven minutes from origional post to bump seems a little quick. Peraonally I never bump a thread but that's just me I guess. If I post a new thread and get a response thats good if not I figure others had the same idea as me. As long as it got views it's fine with me. Not a personal attack at you Josephine96 by any means, just my opinion.

Josephine96 · #17 Postby **Josephine96** » Tue Sep 30, 2003 10:01 pm

Beer 980... You're right... I won't bump anything as quick from now on... I'll wait an hour...

Thanks everyone for the definition of "Bump"

You're welcome Tampa

people are less likely to read ANYTHING you write...I only respond when I have SOMETHING to say...not just "thanks" or "I agree" or "bump" When the strong, silent type speak (like Derecho), people listen...but when a Chatty Cathy speaks, people just tune out.
