Good evening to all,
we have had the first 3 storms of this season in a row within a
few days, but none of them lasted for at least two days long! I
have not seen something like that ever before. Has anyone of you
have had that sort of experience ever before?
How about Gert and Dave? I am totally flabbergasted!
The best one was CHANTAL Lingering plenty days over Northern
Florida, then eventually went along the US South East Coast while
strengthening herself into TS CHANTAL. However, her power was good
enough to enter the US Carolinas, reducing herself to a depression
and that was it.
I would really appreciate some serious explanation, as to how
that could have happened.
Good night to all!

Hello everyone,
This morning we had TS force gusts at the BGI weather station!
The coconut trees were just swaying in the wind. The Barbados
Meteorological Service (BMS) has issued a wind watch due to strong
winds and a marine watch due to high swells up to 3.0 metres.

Hi Gert, Dave and all the Special Correspondents!
Lets hope that the scientists with their long term forecasts have
estimated a bit too high.
Yesterday the Saharan Dust haze was pretty thick:

The usual horizon is many miles behind that what you may think is
the horizon in this photo taken yesterday morning. That what
seems to be the horizon ist just 2 kilo-meters away from my
vantage point!
As Dave reported so correctly in his opening article the Atlantic
is full of Saharan Dust. On ZOOM.EARTH it looks like that:
That's it for today.
