:lol: Talk about "great minds!" The request to focus IR Floater 1 on the Caribbean was sent early this morning!

Hopefully, it will be redirected soon.

#8 Postby OuterBanker » Wed May 19, 2004 12:41 pm

Seems like se fla always floater 1. Floater 2 is the front in the ne (real chance of tropical development there.eh?) You would think that they would change one of them to central america, but what do I know.

Wondering if my "floater" folks have the day off. Usually there is a response to a request by now. I'll resend.

I did submit a second request to the IR Floater people. Is it possible they don't focus floaters until June 1? :eek: :roll:

Hey can you send in a request Dixie to get them to move the storm floater to the new area of convection SW of Puerto Rico. It would be nice. Thanks

I would, but I found last season that trying to get change of focus during a weekend is just about impossible. I will request, though, and hope it gets done before the low becomes a high :roll: :lol:
