SPECIAL TROPICAL DISTURBANCE STATEMENT NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL 1150 AM EDT THU MAY 31 2007
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA... SOUTHEASTERN GULF OF MEXICO AND ADJACENT LAND AREAS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE CENTERED ABOUT 75 MILES SOUTHEAST OF COZUMEL MEXICO. ALTHOUGH THIS SYSTEM HAS SOME POTENTIAL FOR TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO...THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO MOVE SLOWLY NORTHWARD INTO THE SOUTHERN GULF OF MEXICO WHERE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS WOULD LIKELY FAVOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT AS A NON-TROPICAL LOW. REGARDLESS OF DEVELOPMENT...THIS SYSTEM SHOULD BRING HEAVY RAINS ACROSS WESTERN CUBA AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. PLEASE MONITOR PRODUCTS ISSUED BY YOUR LOCAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE FOR MORE DETAILS.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS SYSTEM CAN BE FOUND IN HIGH SEAS FORECASTS ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE... UNDER AWIPS HEADER NFDHSFAT1 AND WMO HEADER FZNT01 KWBC.

Good news for Florida. I heard last night that Lake Okeechobee was on fire. Hard to believe, but true. Some rain would be much needed, as long as the thing doesn't develop into a major storm.
THANKS... I’M SURE WERE GOING TO BE HAMMERED BY HURRICANES OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS THIS HURRICANE SEASON. STAY TUNED TO YOUR FAVORITE, DBM OUTLET TO BE SCARED SH•TLESS WHETHER OR NOT THESE HORRENDOUS STORMS VISIT A REGION NEAR YOU.

Can’t seem to find this thread under Front Page News where I posted it. Sure hope it wasn’t removed. Definitely news for all Gulf Coast residents.
Mod — Anyone know why this was moved to “chat?” It’s definitely front page news. Recon is flying in the GOM Friday to investigate.
Come on with the rain already!
