Tropical Storm Jeanne Forecast # 1

DISCLAIMER: USE NHC for OFFICAL INFO
Jeanne has weakened from 80 mph to 70 mph in the last 6 hours as it landfalls over the Dominican Republic. However, it's apperance is a good looking tropical storm.
I think the NHC track is wrong on this one. I feel that the hurricane will move slowly enough for what is left of former Hurricane Ivan to not have too much effect on pushing Jeanne back north. I also feel that a high to the north will keep Jeanne moving westward.
Although Jeanne is moving over the mountians of the Dominican Republic, cheer up sleepy Jeanne... as soon as she gets back out over water, I think intensification will follow. Keep in mind, although the waters are slightly cooler due to Frances, they still are warm enough to support a hurricane, even a major hurricane... my intensity forecast is my conservative one.

26 N and 81 W in 120? Guess I might have company early next week-unwelcomed company at that. Actually, I am too tired from staying up all night with Ivan to get too exercised yet. This time last week we were the bulleye for Ivan. Time will tell. Not to take away from your forecast, I really hope you are wrong.

I have to agree with you on this one. The models have had the same storm following storm scenario three times now this season and each time they have a right bias and do not think the ridge will strengthen enough from the impacts of the previous storm. I have now watched the tracks of Frances following Charley, Ivan following Frances, and now Jeane following Ivan. Each time the ridge is only weakened enough to allow the new storms to slow down enough to let it build back in above them forcing them further west than predicted five days out. I live in South Florida and would like anyone's opinion.

As I walked away from my computer to eat dinner exactly two hours ago, I thought...
"Wouldn't that be something if Jeanne makes landfall near Jacksonville, FL after having Charley striking the southwest Florida
coast, Frances basically made landfall along the southeast Florida coast and Ivan coming ashore near Gulf Shore, Alabama."
Gulf Shores, Alabama is 37 miles southwest of the southwestern side of Escambia Bay, at the southernmost portion of I-10 at
the start (or end) of the Escambia Bay Bridge.

I'm with you Lynn! I'm completely wore out from watching storms headed in our direction! I can't concentrate at work, can't sleep well, yada, yada, yada! Not to mention, I'm sick and tired of eatng all of the hurricane supplies( Canned foods) My freezer is full from top to bottom with ice we have been making since Frances, theres no room for meat products...lol And, I'd love to have a good home cooked meal!
