If that is not a camera trick or distortion of lens, everyone will feel some of what ever that is. Also it could tighten up but if it did, it would be no fun for whoever it aimed at.
Lets hope it does not get its act together anybetter than now.

I can say with as much certainty as you can in this business that this isn't hitting Florida, Flamommy. That was just a size comparison, which I really didn't need to make anyway.

Is it following the projected path? It looks to me like it's pretty far E of where projected, maybe because it reformed (I am just guessing, based on what others posted earlier today.) I know the path is based on the actual center of low pressure, not the visuals, so I gues there's really no telling right now. I'm sure tonight's models and the recon data will be eagerly awaited. Future TD#4 looks pretty big. I was thinking it could be on the order of Francis's size, if it really gets going.

Storm Cooper, the varying level of interest with these things across the board amazes me. For example, the Southern Louisiana forecast for Wednesday night simply says “windy”. Indeed.

I noted a July 5, 2005. Is this an error? or did I sleep through July 4?

some of the surface obs are reporting westerly winds on the islands off the north coast of venezuela. a low is closing off. might drag it's feet on classifying it, but as of this afternoon it's developing. highest winds i've seen are easterly at about 20kt in the southern windward islands.
td 3 is mostly offshore.. and still has an elongated center. it looks like the center is along the north coast of the yucatan. right now it isn't in a position to rapidly organize, and i'll hold off on saying more until recon samples the area.
gonna be one hell of a week, looks like.

I am not liking what I see with these model runs. I'm eerily reminded of 's path.
Any chance the will send out recon to this system anytime soon?

I am sticking to my #37754 - Sat Jul 02 2005 06:32 AM post for landfall. While jet is moving down and across, I do see TD#3 moving more E then current models and a minimal CAT1. Look for the models to begin changing as time goes on. As far as another w/ TD#3, I don't think so. Could be wrong of course. Although the jet is moving across and down out of the Rockies, it is not a strong jet.

I'd say it looks like it is solidifying. may not classify it at 5pm EST, but unless it just suddenly weakens, I expect it will be a TD by 11pm. IMO.

The latest model run graphics of the model suite are showing the reformation and possible paths from that location.

TD 3 should be Cindi on the next advisory according to the recon at the last fix.

Should be Cindy in an half an hour, though the structure remains oblique in a moderately sheared enviornment. The steering regime is not complicated, with a trof lifting out over Mexico and a ridge building over Florida, and it seems like the trof has has had a more prominent effect on it, and subsquently the track will be shifted eastward. Most models support a storm landfalling in the vicicinty of the LA, with still some hitting Texas. The track seems to be a combonation of Bill and Claudette wtih Cindy treking in the middle. Intensity is tricky, based on the SHIPS and looks like a strong TS, but given the potential energy of 30 C water and given the fact that the trof is lifting out, all leads to believe that it could become a minor (less then CAT 3) hurricane at landfall. Details need to be worked out, but we still got time...

TD3 went from 30-35mph looks to be developing IMO and think landfall maybe a strong TS to minimal cane from NO to MS/AL line.If it slows down then further E I would suspect.The cloud struture shows a more Northerly movement as I see it.
