Tropical Disturbance 1 and Tornado Warnings Continue... Flooding Will Persist. Enjoy the Weekend!

Let's look at the satellite image first to get perspective.
You can watch as the Disturbance slides up the Florida Coast.
Out over water and kicking up showers in the Carolinas.
Travel today on I95 in that region will be impacted by weather.

To the West is the front that is moving slowly East for a rendezvous ...
The disturbance grabs a ride out of town with the front.
But timing is always difficult as things are fluid. 
Especially in May.
Fronts are not as strong and don't sweep down.
This system has been lingering for a while.

Below you can see how it looked down near South Florida


It's rain spread out across Florida.
Yesterday Mike went Live as the West Coast of FL was impacted.
Why? In truth there is a strong high to it's East.
That pushes it further West and so all of Florida was in it


We officially call it Tropical Disturbance.
It's basically a trough of bad weather.
With a chance, a small chance, for some development.

Tampa yesterday.
When Mike was doing a Facebook Live.




Stormy.

This morning it has moved up the coast.
The X is near Florida but the weather along the trough is moving North.



There is no real organization.
Weather is everywhere


It's going to continue crawling up the coast.
Eventually meeting up with the front.


You get the idea.
Rain everywhere.
A reminder you need to prepare for Hurricane Season.


Patterns persist in the short term.
Sometimes patterns persist over time.

Tornadoes on the Southern Plains will continue.
Flooding in the general Mississippi River Valley will continue.

It's that time of year.
Wishing you all a happy and blessed weekend.
May you have love, happiness and the weather you love.

Ps... As for me going to my local Chabad House on Shabbos.  Sunday either the beach or Pittsboro First Sunday... will see which calls the most but probably a fun Street Fair with friends.
Spread the love and kindness...
