Tropical Hurricane Isaac

Going to have go watch this one too and the one behind it as well !!
 
The circulation associated with an area of low pressure centered
several hundred miles west-southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands
remains broad and elongated, and the associated shower and
thunderstorm activity has not yet increased in organization.
However, environmental conditions are conducive for development, and
a tropical depression is expected to form within the next day or two
while the system moves slowly westward or west-northwestward across
the tropical Atlantic Ocean.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.
 
Disdain IMBY stuff, but candidly, this little bugger (92 L ... the lower one) has a few oak trees, and me, slightly concerned ...

This is other storm besides Florence I'm very concerned about. I'm assuming this one will receive the name of "Isaac". As I said last year, "Beware the "I" named storms", we as a country clearly have a bad history with them. (Isodore, Ivan, Ike, Irene, Irma, etc.)
 
While, very understandably, most on this forum have their eyes on Flo and where she goes, it is Isaac that I am beginning to watch very carefully. He looks to be taking the Caribbean path. Some of our most infamous landfalling hurricanes have taken this path before bearing down from the Gulf. In recent years Lili (2002), Gustav (2008), and at least several others have started from a similar position as Isaac is now. What is particularly concerning is the amount of oceanic heat content out ahead of his path. At least the shear is hampering development for the next 3-5 days, per the latest NHC discussion.
 
Hwrf bombs this too:eek: approaching the Antilles this is a scary track
