Fairly nice convection being thrown off from a small low centered over Lake Ponchatrain, just N of New Orleans Airport. Radar appearance is nice too.

And the SSC latest visible shot.

latest visible shot seems to show the beginnings of an eye--hard to believe! Maybe its just a shadow caused by the low sun angle, but either way Bonnie looks pretty healthy to me

It doesn't look good for#3, that close behind, even if it is a few days behind.
Bonnie will get all the heat...
If I remember right, Opal started as a TD the night before Yom Kippur over by Mexico. The next morning, we all woke up (I was in New Orleans) to a Cat 3. Talk about some quick-stepping getting ready for that. Good thing it kept moving, for New Orleans at least.

Hey Guys, thanks for surprising me. I check in early this morning and theres nothing come home and I got a tropical storm south of me. So whats goin on with her? From what I gather, the farther west she goes, the better chance of a NC Gulf Landfall? Looking forward to hearing ya'lls input. I wont be able to get on all day tomorrow again due to school and football!!!

Part of a post from the previous thread - just in case some of you might have missed it.
Folks:
Its time to stay on topic. The site is going to get very busy - and you know what that means. I've already got a full time job (I don't need another) and the next week is going to keep ME very busy. I'd like to be able to spend at least a little time on the site sharing my thoughts - but I'll need your help in order to do that. I love this stuff too, but the boss often has other ideas, so please try to make it easy on the Admins and Mods this week and with luck I'll be able to make a post or two. Please give LI Phil and HF your support - I think that they would like to enjoy these storms too.
Thanks,
ED
(Thanks bobbi for the indirect reminder - I had placed it on the wrong thread.)

i know that... bonnie and are my neighbors. whats your take on all this? will bonnie take all the steam outta of the gulf and leave punchless. i don't think she is big enough to use up all the energy. thats why (TD3) is what really worries me if it gets in the gulf. of course its still a long way off.

Check the storm forum for my ideas on Bonnie...CAT V headed for Mobile...
Seriously, though, I don't think Bonnie will have too much of an affect on Sir Charles...which might not be a good thing. I see as more of a w GOM storm, while Bonnie looks to be taking aim at the Large Bend

Things are getting interesting around here-that's for sure. I just get nightmares from Opal that I'm going to wake up and Bonnie's going to be this big monster.

Vortez message just a couple of hours prior to this one had basically the same information - pressure at 1006, except it report a closed eye wall on the earlier report...actually open up on this latest report (NE)....both had max flight winds at 53k.... this thing is awfully tight and small, not sure in the final analysis if this will be a good or bad thing... being this small.... still looks to be heading off somewhere between WNW and NW at about 8-12 mph.... certainly holding its own and that does not bode well as it moves northwestward toward a more favorable environment... its not getting any weaker that's for sure...
