Cayman, Cuba, Florida and Gulf of Mexico folks pay attention



1. Satellite images and radar data indicate that the broad area of low
pressure located just west of Grand Cayman Island is gradually
becoming better defined. Environmental conditions appear conducive
for further development, and a tropical depression will likely form
during the next day or two while the low drifts toward the
northwest. The system could move near western Cuba by Sunday and
move slowly across the southeastern Gulf of Mexico by early next
week. Interests in western Cuba, the Florida Keys, and southern
Florida should monitor the progress of this disturbance. Regardless
of development, locally heavy rainfall will be possible over
portions of the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Cuba, southern Florida,
the Florida Keys, and the northwestern Bahamas through the weekend.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.

weak structures are collapsing - two people are dead.

And the rain won't stop. At least the drought is over but our farmers are now bawling about too much rain.

We're expecting 6-10 inches of snow later today. I think I'd take that (as pissed as I am about it) rather than a hurricane. Stay safe down there.
