Well then... Can't say I Google members names but that's pretty effed up.

I can't do anything but remove/hide his posts and will do so until he explains himself to someone with a higher pay grade.

In the meantime report his posts that get by until they make a decision.

I looked up his user name long ago simply out of curiosity. Odd for sure but so what? This website has more "Karens" than Carter has pills. If one finds it so horribly offensive then use the block feature then go and hide in one's "safe space." Heaven forbid one spends time on X and gets introduced to the truly terrifying real world. 

Long ago it became apparent there are two themes to this website. First, global warming is a religion not to be questioned unless one wants to be ridiculed, and second, anyone to the right of Trotsky is bashed as a racist, bigot, antisemite or nazi which is why the off-topic section was such a disaster (and the antithesis of free speech.) 

Now, all that said ... I do agree his "Chav speak" (learned a new term today, thank you) is ridiculous and needs to go. This website "American Weather" is not a place for learning lower class British slang.

My point about the username has more to do with a lack of seriousness and the performative nature of the poster coupled with the chav speak (you are most welcome) - I doubt anybody found the whole thing particularly funny or entertaining. Social media is there so you can put on a performance if you so please, I doubt that is what anybody is signing up for in a meteorological forum.

For those not familiar with the Barry Stanton racist Twitter persona, here is more information about it. Plenty more of this on Google.

This would track well with Barry being the alt account of banned member CurlyHeadedBarrett, who also played a persona filled with "Incel" language, and whose last profile picture was Elliot Rodger, a mass-murderer who is idolized in the same spaces as the "Barry Stanton" persona. Not to mention the numerous other similarities/idiosyncrasies that have been brought up already.

SAL is currently a problem in the MDR and Caribbean right now. This looks more like July than September. https://www.wyff4.com/article/saharan-dust-suppresses-tropical-development-during-peak-season/66012941

Like the 0Z run had (I didn’t post it), the 12Z UKMET continues with the MDR TS, very likely headed for a recurve in the middle of the ocean:

Thank you Cholorob for your intelligent reply. Now, getting back to the tropics, or even sub-tropics ... While everyone has been searching for straws there's a little one (potential yellow down the road?) from here in Eastern North Carolina ... Morehead City NWS Discussion:

There are some indications of a weak low forming along the
stalled front/coastal trough off the FL/GA/SC coast this coming
weekend into early next week as a deep positively tilted trough
moves through. It is too soon to tell what impacts, if any, are
expected with very low confidence on the timing, track, and
intensity of the low should it form. At the minimum, winds
should pick up a notch thanks to the tightened pressure
gradient. This results in a higher degree of uncertainty for
the forecast this weekend onwards.

New area of interest in the far eastern Atlantic. Still a lot of SAL out there. 0% in short term 20% in next 7 days. IMHO, unless the SAL clears out somehow, this one will fizzle out like the last one.

And here we are at peak, no named storms, no surprise given the conditions out there in the Atlantic. When is the secondary peak in October?
