I'll let someone else take the "why would i care about the east coast" post.
All I know is if it does hit the east coast it's all we'll here about on the morning shows....for days...maybe weeks or months. Even if they just get some rain.
Time to start watching this storm. Its still a long way out but the models keep brining it further south and it might be a player for the east coast.

You've been pretty y lately which considering your good news recently obviously means you need to badly get laid.

Dude c'mon... I could've guessed that 5 years ago when I joined these forums.
On a side note, I might be going to for this.. but I hope Texas gets hit by another hurricane by Houston.
Work would increase immensely in the Triangle
Are there any posters in the Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico?
Trainwreck may post from the Virgin islands.
Yeah. The tracks keep shifting this thing further West, and now even the NHC says they have no real idea where it's going due to the trough that's interacting with it now.
So we'll keep SpursTalk regulated to things that only affect Texas from here on out. Got it.
You do realize that the economy of the EC is closely tied with the Gulf, right? Wait... probably not.
Damn them for making you turn on their news programs to watch hurricane coverage!All I know is if it does hit the east coast it's all we'll here about on the morning shows....for days...maybe weeks or months. Even if they just get some rain.

Props to Joe for the funny.
Yes. The forum should be regulated to "ashbeeigh specific" news. Obviously.![]()
Even though the seas are warm and Earl could potentially see Cat 5 status, I don't think there is going to much to worry about with this storm beyond high waves and strong rip currents. All the current computer models agree that the trough of low pressure that is expected to come off of the east coast should keep Earl a couple hundred miles away from the shore and eventually steer it back out to sea or up into Nova Scotia. By that time it should weaken significantly.
Even though I don't know her.
"A couple of hundred miles" in a 3 day+ forecast is easily within the margin of error. Don't expect Earl to follow that track perfectly.
I don't...but I don't expect it make landfall in NC either with the current conditions. At the most they will get some pretty good storms out of it but I don't think it will get close enough to do major damage. We'll see how that trough develops.
I've got nothing to say about Earl, but benefactor, every time I see your avatar, I crack up!
Manny, you were right, Earl is absolutely bombing out:
He just waited until today to do it. That's some explosive deepening there, if I've ever seen it.
Right off the DC coast. If these models keep trending any farther West I'm going to the store tomorrow to stock up on emergencies. For anyone who has never been to DC, you want NOTHING to do with the beltway or any major road on a regular workday, let alone an emergency.
Dvorak classification already listing Earl at 942 mb. Insanity.

Yeah. Working and posting at the same time leads to that kind of thing.
Yeah I thought he'd start it 12 hours sooner but it was just a bit later. At least it missed PR and just skirted the virgin islands.
Earl is now Category 4 according to the Dvorak scale.

Presentation on it is pretty much perfect. Outflow is good in every direction, no dry air, and there is virtually on shear.
NASA was supposed to be doing a study this summer with a global hawk drone they have for science purposes. I hope they're getting some good information from this storm.
BTW looks like the cone shifted west yet again a bit. Looks like they're forecasting a much closer run with both the outer banks and cape cod.
And tropical storm Fiona is born.
NOAA's seasonal prediction was looking pretty overstated, but now the storms are rolling out.
