Possible severe weather for west Pasco Florida

Wha who! tomorrow is looking good for some severe weather!
Its been so long, I am so excited! Just saw this on NOAA....
A DEVELOPING STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES
TONIGHT THEN UP ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC COAST ON SUNDAY. A TRAILING
COLD FRONT FROM THIS STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE EASTERN GULF
WATERS EARLY ON SUNDAY THEN ACROSS WEST CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST FLORIDA
SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. INCREASING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ALONG
AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL INCREASE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS
AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE REGION. INCREASING LOW AND MID LEVEL
WIND FIELDS AND STRONG UPWARD LIFT ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT SUGGESTS
THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS...
ISOLATED TORNADOES...OR MARINE WATERSPOUTS THE PRIMARY HAZARDS IF
ENOUGH INSTABILITY CAN DEVELOP OVER THE REGION.
I am going to borrow a friends camera, since I am still with out one. Depending on the time of its arrival i am hoping to catch it coming in off the water. If you happen to read this tonight keep you fingers crossed for me.

Hurricane PALOMA


Yesterday about 530pm I was watching T.S. Paloma saying to myself damn that looks like a Hurricane to me, Great rotation, strong storms. At seven pm They indeed upgraded her.
Possibley the last hurricane of the season and it looks like the Grand Cayman might get a direct hit. It looks like Poor Cuba will also take another hit this season as well . A strong trough of low pressure approaching the U.S. East Coast is pulling Paloma to the north, and this trough should continue to pull the storm northwards and then turn it northeastward by Saturday. Florida is in the clear. Her is something intresting I read from Dr. Jeff Masters site:Historical note
This year and 2005 are the only seasons that we've had major hurricanes in the Atlantic in four separate months--July, August, September, and October. If Paloma becomes a major hurricane, it will make 2008 the first year since record keeping began in 1851 to feature major hurricanes in five separate months.

I wonder what next year will bring we seem to be breaking records each year.

Weather for us her in sunny Florida remains normal for this time of the year, nothing like the end of October where we had record breaking low temperatures. We do have a cold front approaching,
A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO NORTH FLORIDA LATE FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE
RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE GETS NUDGED INTO THE ATLANTIC. THE CLOUDS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT WILL PROBABLY NOT REACH OUR NORTHERN
ZONES UNTIL AFTER SUNRISE ON SATURDAY.

SATURDAY WILL FEATURE A PRIMARILY DRY COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE...
ALTHOUGH THERE WILL BE MORE CLOUDS AROUND. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO
PICK UP A LITTLE BIT FROM THE NORTH BEHIND THE FRONT...AND
CLEARING SKIES MAY EVEN MOVE INTO THE NATURE COAST BEFORE SUNSET.

IT WILL CONTINUE TO CLEAR RAPIDLY FROM NORTH TO SOUTH SATURDAY
NIGHT WITH COOLER AIR MOVING IN ONCE AGAIN. TEMPERATURES WILL
SETTLE INTO THE LOWER 40S OVER THE NATURE COAST...BUT REMAIN
CLOSER TO THE LOWER 50S OR SO OVER MOST OF INTERIOR CENTRAL AND
SOUTHWEST FLORIDA.

SUNDAY WILL BE A TYPICAL NOVEMBER DAY WITH LOTS OF SUNSHINE AND
MILD TEMPERATURES.
Sounds good to me!!!
If you noticed I have been blogging less, its because my little camera has finely went to camera heaven. I am without. I have no credit cards and no extra money to replace it. so until the camera fairy comes I will have no pictures to share. I am very bummed. very bummed. Oh Well I have a roof over my head and some food for our belly's so life goes on.
Have a great weekend!
