Atlantic Names

Atlantic Pronunciation Guide (PDF)

Since 1953, Atlantic tropical storms had been named from lists originated by the National Hurricane Center. They are now maintained and updated through a strict procedure by an international committee of the World Meteorological Organization.

Latest forecast from the NHC below:

https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCDAT4+shtml/270322.shtml?

Ida predicted to hit  the LA border late Sunday, peaking around 120 mph.

Ida will pop up in the southern part of the surface pressure and wind map below on Friday and grow greatly over the weekend! This map is updated constantly.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Areas to the east/northeast or right side of Ida or any hurricane(the dirty side of the hurricane) because of the counterclockwise spin, will  have the speed of the storm adding to the velocity of the wind.

On the west/southwest/left side of Ida or any hurricane, the opposite occurs. Winds will be less by the amount of  forward speed of the hurricane.

If Ida is traveling at 10 mph in the north direction for instance, we subtract 10 mph from the hurricane winds on its west/left side with respect to the ground/ocean. So a 90 mph wind circulation actually becomes 90- 10 = an 80 mph wind.

On the right/east side, the speed ADDS 10 mph to the circulating wind speed and we get 90 +10 =100 mph.

We are around 2 weeks before the historical peak for named storms in the Atlantic basin, which is around September 10th but each year is different.

Ida adjusted to 120 mph in forecast for late Sunday, when hitting LA Coast.

https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCDAT4+shtml/270322.shtml?

NHC forecast up to 140 mph!

Down a notch to 130 mph but alot can happen during the next 24+ hours! Scroll up for more!

Last forecast was still 130 mph.

seems like when ever we are so desperate as to look for water from a hurricane here all we get are low hanging clouds, big wind, and rain that wraps around the core and misses us to the east and west. north or south. In other words the same since 7/16

Ida at 130 mph.

You can see the eyewall clobbering the LA coast right now! Maps below are constantly updated.  Today is the 16 year anniversary of Katrina.

I hope that mcfarm received some rain last night. I had 1.5 inches of very timely rain last night 8-31

This is wonderful cutworm.

Compliments of Ida!(just barely). We missed this last one.....barely but were in good shape from getting lucky with several previous rains.  24 hour rains below.
