TROPICS GETTING ACTIVE

Hampton Inn, Baltimore, MD
high of 104

A tropical wave of low pressure is forming east of the windward islands, deep in the eastern Atlantic.  It is too early to conclude if it is anything to be concerned about, just a 10% chance of becoming a named storm in the next 48 hours, but these things have to start out somewhere.  My friend Bill Dietrich is on his sailboat in Grenada.  I will follow his blog closely, that system approaches his position.

Tropical Storms Bret and Cindy are still playing around in the north Atlantic and have no chance of turning around toward the US.

My work week comes to an end Friday morning with a flight home from Baltimore to Tampa.  I'm looking forward to the cooler, dryer weather in South Florida.
