Bahamian dews just can't compete with ours. Once it's up here, it'll soak up like a sponge and explosively intensify, even while tracking inland. It's science.
Bursty convection, fugly appearance, battling dry air and shear. Has that funny secondary lobe of convection like Matthew did a few years back. Not classic by any means, but a good warm up exercise as we get into the meat of the season.
Fitch also downgrading US credit rating as we remain on an unsustainable path. Fed and Treasury continue debasing our currency and burying our children under a mountain of debt. But on a cheerier note, charcuterie is awesome.
Emphatically agree. My mother is a teacher and has never worked harder to make remote learning engaging. She put in the longest hours of her 35 year career over the spring. Frankly, I think a lot of teachers are going to burn out this year. Many are putting in a lot of time over the summer to plan and prepare for the possibility of shutdowns this fall/winter.
Cowan noted Isaias' location near the entrance region of a healthy jet as it climbs the coast could argue for maintaining strength better than it might otherwise. We'll see. I'm not in any camp yet. These things are damn fickle. I didn't even manage a gust to 20 with a purported 60mph TS going to my west a few weeks ago.
Has the center jumped north? Satellite would certainly suggest it. I suppose the flow banking up against the northern side of Hispaniola could encourage such a move. Interesting.
