We got as far out of caleta as Presidente before turning around. Port closed minutes later. Buckets and buckets of rain yesterday. Water a bit stirred up today but nice diving nonetheless.

Computers would predict more accurately if the winds were more predicable.

I love this! You rock. Reminds me of my favorite Frank Burns quote... "It's nice to be nice to the nice." Thanks, Don!

I actually read DDs sentence completely non-ironically the first time through...

When cyclones start to intensify and become better organized systems (and therefore have more predictable winds, and tend to become the weather, instead of being pushed around by the weather) the computer models tend to predict them better...

I hear ya... but let's just enjoy word play for tonite- it's time to go to sleep. Good night!

The joke's on me as I still don't get it.

The maps stopped updating when it upgraded to TD2, now landing around RGV but sending squalls are far as Houston and Waco.

Don I thought it was a clever way of denouncing the futility of predicting fickle Mother Nature.
i guess Im the only one who read it that way... sorry to cause confusion!

Oh yeah it was. So are you getting rain from the storm yet?

 

[Foo]

It rained most of the day yesterday, but is only humid and scattered showers today. Well, I'm outta here, on my way to Coz for a last minute weekender!!

I got it though. Its funny, kind of an inadvertent double entendre for weather nerds...

Seattle just turned to summertime, BTW. Last week we were having highs in the 60's and rain, and today is going to be 94F. Happens every year right after 4th-of-July.

It should be more or less sunny like this for us all the way into about October, at which point we get back to the weather that Seattle is (in)famous for.
