For those looking for unusual weather patterns as signs of an ever changing climate. Everything points to this being a fairly wild season 55 minutes ago, When Skies are Grey V2 said: Early start to the Atlantic Season - Cat 3 now. Windward Islands today (Monday) and then the Caribbean the next few days. Was going to that's really early! Cat 4 now at the thing I'm looking at. Looking pretty wild on some of the Barbados webcams.

Chinahand Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Hurricane tracks are ace. No hurricane has ever crossed the equator. https://x.com/konstructivizm/status/1807300786612818343?t=XF_WY4y7KsendQdugvC74g&s=19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTeapot Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 People often concentrate on the category of a hurricane but sometimes things come along that make a mockery of the category system. Right now we have Tropical Storm Debby. It might be a hurricane by landfall but that's not important. It's going to cause enormous problems for northern Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. Slow moving, it's going to dump a preposterous amount of rain. It's been an interesting follow this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coriolis effect is what makes them spin clockwise in the North, anti in the South. They'd have to stop spinning then reverse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTeapot Posted August 9 Author Share Posted August 9 Nice little side effect of storm Debby (thousands of miles away) is to push the stupid jet stream north. Gonna be hot for a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Next one up is going to be called Ernesto. Looking ahead we’re going to have one called Gordon. That’s a bit like calling your dog Ralph. I mean who does that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTeapot Posted August 29 Author Share Posted August 29 The weather continues to perplex the experts. A very active season was predicted for the Atlantic, and while early Beryl was a record setter for a bunch of reasons, it has not quite gone as expected. So it's going to rain quite a lot in the Sahara, which means hopefully some lovely photos of desert flowers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
