C is for...

...holy Crap this has been a busy hurricane season for the first month of it!
...Crazy! which is what the tropics are right now. the third named tropical storm of the season coming up through the Gulf. the fourth named tropical storm of the Pacific bearing down on western Mexico. and a tropical wave in the Caribbean that is expected to be a named storm by this evening & suspected to become the first hurricane with a possible path projection in Florida.
...the Center of a tropical storm or hurricane that everyone focuses their attention on, often forgetting that there are still strong winds & heavy rains in those outer bands that can do damage.
...the Cone: what we should all take into consideration, not just the line up the middle since we learned last year that storms don't really care what track is "predicted".
...the Caribbean which is unfortunately starting to look alive with activity. i was much happier when all the storms were forming in the Gulf & being steered west of us by the Bermuda High.
...Counting: as in counting down to Novemver 30 when hurricane season ends. also as in counting on the Bermuda High not to weaken since its current location is preventing the storms from getting to close to where i live.
...Cuba: better start getting ready. Tropical Depression 4 is looking like it's headed your way before the week is over.
...Central Florida: where i live. and where we are hoping that the Bermuda High doesn't start directing these babies back over us in a replay of last year.
...Cringe, as in what i am starting to do when i watch the weather now.
...Cool water is not good breeding ground for tropical weather which fuels itself on the warm waters. maybe all these storms so early will cool the waters off quickly & prevent those whoppers from being able to form later in the season?
...Closely watching the tropics now for a potential Florida landfall.
...Current 5-day forecast for Tropical Depression #4.
