Brief look at the tropics

First off, the tropics. Nothing much going on at all. Global models do not indicate there will be anything all that interesting for the next five or so days. Yay. So far this is shaping up to be a quiet year. Lets keep it that way. Or just keep all storms away from Houston.

We did have a bit of a scare over the weekend as the nhc issued a moderate risk of development for a tropical wave that was moving over the northwest Caribbean. Short range models even showed a low developing over the southeast Gulf then moving into Florida as anything from a depression to a cat 2 hurricane. Moving into the Yucatan Peninsula and dry air had something to say about that though. So, nothing came of it except widespread showers over the western Caribbean.

Tomorrow, Weather Pioneer Days and a look at India. Could have more pictures!!
