Lets get right to it. Today, we saw this coming. Northeast wind and more moisture around and clouds were building today. If youre outside in the tampa bay area around 3 00, you could see the clouds getting very high in the sky, we had a round of storms move through. Wind gusts at 56 miles an hour and a couple of folks over in st. Pete, for them, one of the biggest storms so far this summer. And then, you see the little it was off the charts tonight.

Plenty warm to support major intensification if the environment allows i think it will but moves along north of purerto rico, i think t will make sense that it will become a hurricane. Its always a battle between the european model and our model, the gfs. You go on these weather events, its almost like the european starts it off with a 7 point favorite. It does so much better on average than the gfs. We see this happen many times lets talk about the modelling situation. High pressure over the carolinas will act like a block and more than likely prevent what develops upthe east coast and missing us. It will be forced to the left. The track will likely change but as of tonight, tuesday night, you have the european showing a storm getting near miami sunday at 6 00 and then moving out in the favor, rapid intensification. There may be a major hurricane heading up towards mobile, west of tampa. Reminder that storms going south of us dont do a lot here as far as major impact. Some but not major. The gfs says im not going to play along. This is what the gfs does, it shows nothing at all. Development probably becauseits handling a different situation. With time, the models will come together but as of now, theyre not. Well see how this plays out tomorrow and thursday as well. Next day or two, well get a better idea. Clear tonight, 78.
