Hello Everyone,

After TS Debbie fizzled out last week far off the coast off North America, we started to set our sights on the 20 degree latitude for more action. Low and behold, TS Ernesto pops up and is heading toward Florida on a slight NW orientation. Although the season has been much slower to develop strong storms compared to the record year of 2005, we are still anticipating a cat 3 or 4 for the middle of September during the ESA National off the Outer Banks of North Carolina...














Here is what the National Hurricane Center has to say about TS Ernesto.
A TROPICAL STORM WARNING AND A HURRICANE WATCH REMAIN IN EFFECT FROM
NEW SMYRNA BEACH SOUTHWARD ON THE FLORIDA EAST COAST...More

We wish safe harbor from the storm. Be safe our friends of Florida and Georgia!

Stay tuned,

Max

TROPICAL UPDATE















The Latest from the NHC --- 500 PM EDT MON AUG 21 2006

"THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE SOUTHEAST OF THE CAPE VERDE ISLANDS HAS
BEEN MAINTAINING ENOUGH CONVECTIVE BANDING TODAY TO WARRANT DVORAK
CLASSIFICATIONS OF T1.5 FROM TAFB AND SAB AT 18Z."

"OUTER BANDING STRUCTURES ARE WELL DEFINED...BUT OVERALL THE
CONVECTIVE SIGNATURE IS STILL A LITTLE THIN. WATER TEMPERATURES
SHOULD BE WARM ENOUGH FOR THE NEXT DAY OR SO TO SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT
AND THE SHEAR IS LIGHT."

Eddie called to put the word out. We'll be keeping our eye on TD_4's status over the next couple of days...

Stay tuned

I'M BACK!

Back in SLC again. The roadtrip was great. Filming the just squeezed doc is a wrap. Time to get back in motion with the mission...

We are currently finalizing the team, working on updating the website, getting an RV prep'd, getting sponsors together and monitoring the tropical situation. Although we haven't had the banner year we had last year, we're still anticipating some action in September. We will keep you all updated. Stay tuned.
