This chart will automatically update periodically.
Steve Jerve says Dean is on target to become a major storm. Still a long way to go before we need to get our feathers ruffled.
Yeah, this is the appropriate time to post Dean Martin photos while Hurricane Dean is still far away. I’m not concerned yet. BTTT
The Howard Dean impressions are entirely too funny. Thoroughly broke into LOL this afternoon when suddenly recalling this post from yesterday:
"We're going to smash into Cuba, then into the Keys, then Florida, and finally into SC YEEAAARRRGGHHH!!"
Cheers!
Y’all gonna get wet, fer sure. No telling yet where Dean will mess up beach plans.
If you still have your collection of storm boats, we may need to borrow a few. :)
If it reaches hurricane status, it could devastate the island of Hispaniola (Haiti & Dominican Republic)
Ready or not, huh? I’m confused about something though. I read landfall Wed evening. Tomorrow? It sure seems like a ways out still. If they meant next Wed, that’s troubling.
I read the same and was confused, too. Maybe they meant the ‘bands’ starting to make landfall.
Stay safe all South Texans!
On a more positive note, the Hispaniola mountains of Cordillera Central with Pico Duarte; Cordillera Septentrional, and Sierra de Neiba mountains are tropical storm killers. In other words, the rugged and high Hispaniola mountain ranges are awe inspiring tropical storm killers.
Worst case scenario for the rest of us is that Dean would skirt Hispaniola and Cuba mountains. We should shudder at the thought.
Not that I'd want to be here during a CAT 5, but after Charley did his quick shift in direction, it's hard to know what to do. We almost left Pinellas for Orlando during Charley-- which would have been a huge mistake.
IOW--stay alert, and be prepared, as we all know.
I'm sure this is why the NWS issued the "oh-by-the-way" tropical system statement for the next couple of days. They can't officially warn you of a storm that hasn't officially formed in the hot tub yet.

Well you know how it is. CC and below just unpopulated desert:’)
Here's some of the previous tracks "a la Dean".
Yeah, I don’t want to take focus away from Dean but as long as it is out there we need to stay on guard.
