Hmmm, see this, the one on the far right is Hurricane Maria, the one in the middle is TD. 15, the one on the left is well nothing, but the models are making this a TS, moving over Florida, into the gulf and hitting LA as a hurricane. Scary.... This may become a TD tommorow. But, luckily, Maria and TD 15 are expected to move off into open waters.

LA?

EDIT:  Oh, I was thinking of the city.  Well there ****ed.  I really wish I could go help but my dad wont let me adn nobody will take in 16 year olds.  All I can do is donate and pray for them I guess.

Umm, nevermind the TD 15 part, it has just become TS Nate.

At least this time there won't be anyone there

And Maria has just become the 4th Major hurricane of the season.

All these things float around for quite a while before they start doing nasty things to land.  All those people saying the Hurricane "came up too fast" and therefore was some sort of supernatural thing and such just never looked at a bloody weather map.

That one you have circled ( with the ???) looks too close to land and too disorganized to become much of anything.

T.S. Nate's current track takes it out on a similar track to Maria (just a little further in).  It may become a Hurricane but its not likely to threaten continental U.S.  The next couple of storms we'll see where they go.

They say that Hurricane season is going to be lasting longer and be more intense.  I'm shocked that the climate change story isn't being pushed a little bit more...this is the chance to point out that things are getting a little more strained with the weather.  We are going to see more of these monster storms.

"???" is in a very similar position to where Katrina was when it crossed Florida, thus the comparison.  However, the system looks to disorganized to survive as a TD over Florida, which diminishes its chances of developing into even a "minor" hurricane.  Plus, it looks a little like it's drifting more northward.

Wether it gets over Florida as as a TD or TS really don't matter. The gulf is still good and warm, and Katrina didn't cause that much upwelling of the water. Also it's suposed to sit there for sereral days, before moving. So, it has good bit of time to devolp into something, the Hurricane Hunters are going out later today to check it out.

It's happened, it is now TD 16, and will probley become Ophelia in the next day or so. But, as of now models have this going into north Florida as a strong TS. But, the track is still very, very uncertain right now.
