FAMOUS WEATHER QUOTES: The forecast for tonight.....dark! - Danny Treanor (cfnews13.com)

Fay breaks apart but plenty of rain in our future...

All the news is a-buzz about Fay breaking apart. It almost looks like the eye has enlarged to neary 50 miles wide at this point. Big eyes are better than small ones (...as far as hurricanes go). So, this means the storm is moving at a slow pace and will be affecting our area for at least 2 more days. Winds at my house have never exceeded 20 MPH so far. Stay tuned.



Fay plot guess #2

I have been running the GFSX models again and they differ from what the mainstream media has been saying about the predicted course. Keep in mind, the DWG plot is just a guess based on variables present at the time. This is by no means inteded to alarm you, or to be used for emergency planning. Always consult the experts in this field.



DWG Estimates...TS/Hur Fay


Shown in blue, is the official NOAA plot as of 11:00 PM today (8-16-08) but I think (Red Plot) it will actually swing more to the East as it moves up the state. The GFS 500mb forcast models have been showing the same thing. Winds could go as high as 50 MPH in the local area.

Plot Forecast 08-16-08 23:00 Hrs

Tropical Storm "Fay" could pose risk to Florida...

Its still to early to say for sure, but if it becomes the next named storm, Fay, could potentially hit Florida. Some models have it skirting the Eastern coast of Florida and some newer models have it following a path much like Hurricane Charlie did in 2004. Stay tuned.
