Jeanne

[Vortex]

Does anyone have the updated 12z model info for the nogaps,cmc, and uk?

[KatDaddy]

Not I

Joe B has Jeanne plowing through the GOM on a WNW track to the W Central GOM and then being turned into TX Coast.

He believe a strong ridge of high pressure will build in across the Atl and SE US in the wake of Ivan.

Plowing through FL to get to the GOM?????

Plowing through FL to get to the GOM?????

I dont like the sound of that one bit. I can only imagine since you live in Homestead that everytime somebody says its gonna hit South Florida, those images of Andrew keep haunting you. I know how that must feel.

Jeanne seems to be growing in size and organization. Is it my eyes or is it real? Luis?

Actually, I wasn't in Homestead, or S. FL for that matter, during Andrew...that means, thankfully, don't have the traumatic memories that so many others have. I've been rather fotunate that since moving to the Miami area 7 yrs. ago I've never had a direct hit by a 'cane...well, not yet anyway... Of course, that also means our time will come again...what a season this one has been so far, though!

It could indeed threaten Florida.. If 1 of our saving grace cold fronts isn't around

[kempshark]

Thought this one was going NNW from current position and maybe threatening the Carolinas?? I've been trying to go to the Keys for a month now.....scheduled to go the day before Charley, scheduled for the day before Frances, scheduled this past weekend .....and now scheduled either the 9/18-9/25 or 9/25-10/2.......and of course now we have Jeanne !!!!!!!!

It is the heart of hurricane season

[Canelaw99]

Kempshark - might I suggest waiting till Dec. 1 for that Keys trip???

lol I can sense your frustration. I guess this is the price we Floridians must pay for living in a tropical paradise for the majority of the year.

Despite this year.. I love it here in Fla..

[kempshark]

Yeah....I already have trip scheduled for the week of Thanksgiving. I realize its hurricane season, but I've been going down 5-6 times a year for 14 years, and this is the first year I've had to cancel a trip due to hurricane. Now it looks like 3 or 4 times this year!!!!!

[Canelaw99]

Yeah - this has been one heckuva season for us here....very unusual - well, at least as far as recent years are concerned.

[Josephine96]

True.. possibly 4 direct hits on the state and 3 majors

{Bonnie. Charley,Frances, Ivan?}

[WeatherEmperor]

Yeah....Florida is great.

Should not be too bad for Fl even if it does make landfall. The energy is spent. Frances took care of that.

[Josephine96]

Hopefully it'll weaken some.. This is 1 dangerous storm
