NFT: South Florida weather alert -

section125 : 8/17/2017 9:25 pm
TS harvey has formed, but likely will be well south of us. But there is a system East of Harvey that could be a TS or hurricane in a few days and looks to be threatening to Florida in 5 to 7 days.

Just sayin'

Taking the family to Puerto Rico on Saturday for a quick getaway. Wonder if United will put a Weather travel advisory on the flight so I get a free rescheduling. As of now it looks like Sat at noon it will be just south of the island, not sure the impact to the north coast of San Juan though.
I boarded up for the first time in

10 years last October for Mathew and I've had this feeling that I will be boarding up again at some point this summer/Fall!! If I have to go through this just once, mind as well get it over with early!

Yeah Matthew was close.

There is another website that weatherman gave me that shows real long range projections and an ensemble of all the models. It had that depression on this morning and it was showing Miami to St Lucie Inlet. It was not on the on the latest forecast when I started thhe thread, but just checked again and it is there now.

Click on "go to real time guidance", then on the red symbols on the chart. Then chose :
1.) early cycle track
2.) late cycle track
3.) GFS ensemble

Latest shows it going up Old Bahama Channel and the Straits of Florida.

Book mark the Site - nice adjunct to NHC...

If you are talking about PR and Harvey, you should be ok, That track is well south. However the next one goes just North of the Island in 3 days. That is the one to keep an eye for your trip...
Was just thinking today how it's been an uneventful hurricane season

Ben, it is early - Mid August to Mid October is when the real poop hits the fan. There have actually been a lot of waves that just missed developing. Now is when the fun begins.
Need to dust off the gas jugs.
Thanks for the link again Section.

It was a great resource last year and then my phone died and lost the bookmark. Almost asked you to repost it last week with those couple little storms that were out there. It's interesting to follow and see how the models change day to day.
Miami to Saint Lucie inlet

would not be good being in Port Saint Lucie. Somehow, I think it's going to be one of those seasons where we will be doing plenty of wave watching. Once the calendar hits mid August, its on!
The NHC reduced the second low  
section125 : 8/18/2017 6:33 pm : link
from a high chance of forming to medium. But the long range shows it coming toward St Lucie Inlet again in 4 to 5 days.

Live in a townhouse and getting on that second floor to put up panels was a bitch.
