For our two threats in the Atlantic, it’s good news to see our pattern breaking down and saving the s/e coast for anymore landfalls like we saw with Danny. However we could see some impacts come up from our south I think through the gulf. In my years of tracking storms that haven’t formed and that are that Far East it’s highly probable that they trend westward with time…I think below Cuba ?? but we shall see

U have got to let me in the Elsa thread I have something to say that could save lives
Say it here, meanagement will review and if determined to bring life saving value we will share in the appropriate thread.
I believe this will end up being a very deadly storm. The post covid holiday rush to the beach near the Fourth of July and rip currents will kill many from the Caribbean into North America. A recurve east of Florida would still be deadly esp off Myrtle Beach. I think the NHC needs to warn of a possible hurricane not sure 60mph TS that rarely happens they need to increase the wind speeds soon. This is a very dangerous storm.
^ I would like to add to that the supply chain and worker shortage would cripple if Elsa came up this way as a major in the gulf.
^I would like to add the Florida collapsed building would be doomed…not that I believe anyone is alive but why give up hope.
^ I would like to add that hurricane evacuees all crammed together in New Orleans like Katrina would be very deadly with the delta variant out there. We could end up like India .
^ I would like to add more details and maps too let me
In there

This isn't a major hurricane so I think they will be ok.
Conditions are ripe for this to become a hurricane. I believe major is on the table.
I was in the water last weekend and it was still kind of coolish

Yea around 84-86 near PCB. Not bath water yet, I like when its around 90.
Yeah and I think it was even cooler on the Carolina coast... Definitely not what Id would consider warm

Isn't it a bit unusual to have a major landfalling hurricane this early in the season?

Wrong thread
I would like to add that if someone doesn't want to face another forum exodus they may want to calm down the rhetoric. @BirdManDoomW I'm looking right at you

Carolina coast gets to 84 . I know Virginia key down by Miami gets to 90, and the shallow shelf water in the gulf .
This has nothing to do with how tropical systems tho. They stir up in much deeper waters offshore than what we swim in. There’s a map that will tell you what can be supported (cat 3 major) can be done even stronger actually where this is headed in the short to mid ranges.
I realize that I was just giving my experiences playing in the sand last weekend. But I do know that temperatures need to be 83 to 84 degrees in the water for most hurricanes to blow up. That said, a massive hurricane would not be a surprise because of enough upwelling would occur, but it is still unlikely.
Can this become a major Hurricane .. sure.. but there’s an equal and even maybe more likely chance this is nothing and out to sea … next
Not according to NHC. Caribbean people first then Florida. NHC struggles more with strength than track. There’s a lot of land in the way maybe so doesn’t matter if it’s a major or not until it re-emerges on which side of Florida no one knows but I believe in the Gulf.
