This will be official at 11am EDT. Was recently named TD2. Furthest east a storm has formed so early, replaces... Bertha of 1996.

Tropical Storm Bertha - She's waaaay out in the Atlantic. Have we missed the Caribbean early season, and jumped right into Cape Verde storms?

Oh great - just about my favorite storms /sarc Thanx for the ping.

I like “fish storms” they leavethose of us on the coast alone :)

[Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)]

I missed something.

Who and what was storm “A”?

Was that the one that rushed through Honduras or somewhere and messed up some hairdos?

[nwctwx]

Arthur went into Belize as a small storm but caused flooding

Will PETA protest and demand we protect the fish from this storm?

What’s the poop on Invest 93, just west of the Windward Islands?

No “Die” ping list but ask to get on NautiNurse’s “Surfs Up” ping list. Can get a number of local views on the storms.

[WakeUpAndVote]

Please add to surfs up ping list.

Thanks!

Thx for the ping, Double N.

[NonValueAdded]

no, no, no .. I won’t stand for this. Obama will bring change and we won’t have storms any more.

Conditions generally aren’t that favorable in the central caribbean this time of year. Probably not much if any development with it, maybe if survives into the northwestern part it could do something.
