FLO Floats Out In The Atlantic.. 900 miles wide?

I've been a little quiet the last few days. Not much to say about a storm that takes up most of the Atlantic Ocean and refuses to strengthen even though the NHC gives it the green light to intensify.

She is big. She is large. She is floating wnw across the Ocean where she will meet with a trough, do a tango and most like turn..

My question is.. can a storm 900 nautical miles wide be tugged completely by a trough the way a regular big 300 mile wide storm can be? I mean how many 900 nautical mile wide storms have we seen before?

And, you can't blame the problems on the size because this is the same thing that happened with Ernesto.. despite good conditions and green lights to intensify he didn't. Shear didn't lessen.

Will see.

In my life... Sharon is back from Maine and we did the OLD Publix we used to do for years and years on Miami Beach like it was the most normal thing in the world. Wandered around Landau waiting for the boys to be ready to go home. Old Times, very strange...like some time warp thing going on ... Was great..

Miriam is back from NY, its been nonstop noise and partying with friends and syblings up late.

Moe and Deb are coming ...bringing Challah.

Dolphins lost :( sigh

And, I am going to bed..not going to think on anything else.

Note this quote from the Discussion from the NHC from Avila who is one of the only ones I know who always uses the word "I" the way he does... sounds miffed with Florence like she is stubborn.. lol. She is ..900 nautical miles wide.

" CANNOT FIND ANY REAL GOOD REASON WHY FLORENCE HAS NOT YET INTENSIFIED SINCE THE INGREDIENTS COMMONLY USED TO FORECAST STRENGTHENING ARE PRESENT."

Personally, I think El Nino is present too but well.. if so you got to give it to the Old Guy.. at least HE showed up, unlike some old guys I know who play hide and seek but don't come out from behind the trees.

Good Shabbos Florence,
