Hi all,
Along time since I have done a post. I have been watching Mr Weatherman
and he has just done a broadcast about the seaweed. -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCDHMobwxF8
We had some seaweed a couple of weeks ago, but currently it is not too
bad here. But watching Mr Weatherman it does look as if there is a very
large amount of Sargasso seaweed on it's way across the Atlantic. Most
of it at the moment appears to be further north, but looks as if we
could get some in the coming weeks.
All the best

An area just East of T&T looks as if it could become a Tropical Storm
within the next 48 hours as it moves through the Grenada area.

This is the first area of concern for some time. It looks as if it will
pass north of the Lesser Antilles.
I wonder if the lack of storms in the tropics is due to the constant
High pressure we are getting in the UK and Europe causing drought
conditions. Please send us some rain!

- The storm has passed well south of Grenada.

Tropical Depression Two did not reach Tropical Storm force. I believe
the worst weather Grenada suffered was from rain and thunder before it's
closest approach.
Now we should look to the East as there are more tropical waves on the
conveyor belt.
All the best

It looks as if the centre of the Tropical Depression/Storm will pass
through Trinidad then scrape along the Venezuela coast, about 90miles
south of Grenada. My guess is that there could be strong Easterly winds
over night and tomorrow morning. It still has not been given Tropical
Storm status, as I type.
All the best over night and tomorrow morning.

- 94L-Tropical Depression Two almost Tropical Storm "Bonnie"?

Please listen to official weather forecasts. Below is only my opinion
based on websites that I keep an eye on. The NHC forecast does show
Grenada to be in the Tropical Storm risk area.
It now looks as if the centre of this weather system will pass a good
bit South of Grenada, scraping just off the Venezuela coast. If this is
the case, then hopefully Grenada may not get Tropical Storm force winds.
But still be prepared for them in case it drifts a bit further north. It
now appears that it will pass south of Grenada overnight tonight into
tomorrow (Tuesday/Wednesday). Be prepared for strong Easterly winds and
possibly some heavy rain.
All the best and keep safe.

94L following the predicted course. Most models show it somewhere
between Trinidad and Grenada, arriving Wednesday. As far as I can see
they are predicting a Tropical Storm by the time of arrival in our area,
but could be a Cat 1. Unless some other system beats it, it is likely
to be "Bonnie" the second named storm this year.
There is another tropical wave following 94L, I will keep an eye on that.
Keep safe.

- All of the models are showing 94L coming very close to Grenada

The models appear to be in agreement that 94L will be a Tropical Storm
(maybe a Cat1) by Wednesday as it passes very close to Grenada. As far
as I can see, the predictions are that it could pass close South of
Grenada, if this is the case then the winds will be strong Easterlies.
Suggest you start looking for anything that could be blown and cause damage.
I will update tomorrow.

Hi all,
It has been a long time since I did a post. Hope you are all OK.
I am watching a weather system that is brewing well out in the Atlantic.
Currently some websites have it approaching the Grenada region about
Wednesday/Thursday next week. I will keep an eye on it.
