Henri weak and downgraded...

My first thought is... they can't be serious with the above model run... he was just downgraded to a Tropical Depression not exactly something that could go the distance to Florida but... the model shows it as a weak, weak, w e a k system and it's only a far out model. First has to stay alive.

What is there to say about a Tropical Storm that's life goal is to become a remnant low? Don't know. Not much to say.

He is now a Tropical Depression about to lollygag about the Atlantic with a possible regeneration in a few days or he fades quietly away. Only time will tell.

I've seen a model scenario that has him puttering slowly towards Florida coming in as a weak.. remnant low?? I don't know. I would think it would be hard for a storm to hit South Florida from the ESE in October, especially a pattern that feels more like late October. I would think such a scenario would be more from a storm that made it into the Caribbean and then pull north towards a Cold Front. From where Henri is he would have to go pretty far south or stay out there a bit not to be swept up faster or blown apart.

Not sure... been busy honestly with guests and the Jewish Holidays and am just really sitting a bit and thinking on Henri.

Also, am watching an area to the SE of Henri for possible development. Can see that area moving into position to become a problem later if it could only get going. Not a very friendly tropical environment but it's still October and climo takes into account slow years as well as busy ones.

As for me... am going to be in Florida soon and cannot wait to feel the tropical, balmy air upon my face and watch palm fronds dance in the moonlight and watch waves break upon my favorite beach. Smiling... so come on Henri..don't fade away...

Don't fade away...



Be back as soon as there is something more definitive to say ... going to sleep now.

Sweet tropical dreams.. Bobbi
