Rina is a tropical storm with 60 mph winds and is not  well organized at all with almost no southern side and not super high cloud tops.

97L is devoid of convection and is not organized at all.

Today will feature rain in the morning changing to snow as the day goes on. This changeover to snow will happen first in the mountains then the coast will get the white stuff later in the day.

As of 5 Rina is still a hurricane with 75 mph sustained winds. The system is very disorganized and only has a scap of an eyewall left. The storm is headed for the yucatan peninsula.

97L now does not even have a remote shot at developing. I agree.

  Still active with a disorganized Rina, a shortwave over the US, 97L in the central carribean, and a powerful N atlantic storm by greenland

Well here we go. We have rain, some heavy moving in. This will help the cold air to filter down from the higher levels of the atmosphere. After a day of rain we will get some snow overnight. There will be no accumulation. The storm will be gone by Friday.

Stay tuned

As I look at the models again I see that the storm tomorrow will be a little bigger than origionally thought. Not by much but this one will at least have some small accumulations. By small I mean >1-1 inch at the coast with 1-3 in the foothills and 2-4 in the larger mountains.

It looks like the storm previosly predicted to hit this weekend will stay out to sea.

Stay tuned

As of 2 Rinia is only a cat 1 with 85 mph winds. The storm is not very well organized with half an eyewall and a lopsided apperance.

97L is still a 10% chance of developing i would say 0%.

-Jack

The weekend storm is going out to sea so it is not a concern. There is still a slight possability that either that storm or one on tuesday could affect us.

Stay tuned

 This mornings sat. map. convection associated with a shortwave trof is building over the ohio valley. This is the snowy system. Rina is a swirl in the W. Caribbean and 97L is the convection south of PR.

Well  is still a high end cat 2 with 110 mph winds and is bering down on the east coast of the Yucatan peninsula.

97L is now put at a 10% chance of development by the nhc and due to the lack of deep convection (big thunderstorms)I would have to agree with them this time.

Stay tuned
