Working now? What about Storm 91L? Or is it Tropical Depression Number Two?
After a WordPress crash during the latest update, I’ve had to apply the changes manually. And then! The plug-ins I use to Twitter and Facebook crashed, so I had to update those manually.
Now back to my regular activities – tropical weather!
For the last several days, a weak storm system, labeled 91L, has been churning off the Southeast U.S. coast. It has grown in strength for the last two days, and because of the investigation by the Hurricane Hunters, has now been upgraded to tropical depression status.
As of the 5 PM advisory, TD 2 was about 400 miles from Charleston, SC and is heading for a landfall near that city at around 2 PM Sunday. The storm is forecast to have winds of 40 MPH at the time of landfall and is expected to be a sub-tropical storm. I’m not sure if it will be given a name, but if so, it will be named Alex. Currently the storm has winds of 35 MPH with a central pressure of 1009 MB.
It’s a fairly broad, diffuse storm, so I expect us to get some its rain, winds and rip tides.
