The Atlantic Tropical region is starting to heat up with activity and we will likely see our first tropical named system of the year in the Atlantic Basin, possibly as early as later tonight. Tropical Depression 2 is located near 31W Longitude and 15 N Latitude or about 400 miles west of the Cape Verde Islands, this Tuesday afternoon. TD is moving to the west around 13 MPH and the general track over the next day or two will be to the West to West-Northwest. As of 10 AM, maximum sustained winds were around 30 MPH and the estimated pressure was 29.71” or 1006 MB.

Hi newbie,
Tell the folks in FL, LA, MS, AL how much “fun” hurricanes are.
Funny. Just yesterday I was talking to a co-worker about not having any activity yet this summer.
Don’t forget Texas!
Oops, my mistake.
Finally is right. My generator is starting to rust.
Hurricane Obama is approaching a large area of cooler water. It is forecast to lose much of it’s strength.
There is small area of union supporters blowing hot air; located near the Marxist Islands. This is not expected to strengthen Hurricane Obama in any meaningful way
Remember 1992? It was about this same time in August when Andrew formed wasn’t it??
Do you still do the hurricane ping list?
Its been quiet this year thank goodness.
Yep. Since my life depends upon it, I don’t get excited about piddly low pressure systems and TDs half way around the globe. If a storm may threaten U.S. interests, I’ll spring into action.
Yeah I just haven’t seen you around!!
Glad your still here and Glad you aint got nothing to do on the hurricane ping front. lol
VERY poor choice of words. I have yet to experience anything “fun” about a hurricane.

Politically incorrect to say these days---have been working more than ever lately. Now I should prolly expect to get a visit from one of Obama's goons to spread the wealth around.
