8532 - Ernesto not as bad?

[scottobear]

Buses will be running until 3pm today, so I'll cruise in to work at normal time, but will probably high-tail it a bit early. I'm guessing that the office will be closed tomorrow due to the storm. Hurricane Ernesto looks to be now downgraded to a tropical storm status for us. Not a bad "fire drill" warning.

Lots of lines at the gas stations, but everyone still seems fairly civil.

Sounds like Kev did ok at Gitmo - 40 mph winds is all that whooshed by there.

Back to yoga.. I lazed off for a bit, but I'm really wanting to make this work. I'd just as soon not get too slacker-y about it just yet.

I dunno he looks a bit suspicious of it to me. :D

He's got the shifty look of a shoplifter! Going to steal some pancake mix, no doubt!

I think that would be a good way to get out of Jury Duty, when they start asking questions of the jury pool, in all seriousness say "It's a good thing you guys called me here because I can tell if someone’s guilty by just looking at them."
Just for good measure, a few seconds later, give the prosecutor the hairy eyeball.

He's wearing old spice! obviously he commits morally ambiguous crimes!

A quick update on Ernesto--the latest Hurricane Hunter mission at 6:30am EDT found only 45 mph winds at the surface, and a 1005 mb pressure. The Hurricane Hunters earned their money today, as they reported moderate turbulence during many of their legs. This often happens in intensifying storms right next to land, as the air flowing over the land to water is very turbulent. Ernesto is slowly strengthening, but probably only has enough time to make it to a 60 mph tropical storm before landfall on the mainland Florida Peninsula in Everglades National Park. Satellite imagery shows a slowly expanding area of intense thunderstorms near the center, and some decent upper-level outflow on the east side. There is dry air on the storm's west side, and this is being pumped into Ernesto by a small upper-level low to is west. This influence should wane today as the upper low weakens and moves off.

You can see some ill-defined spiral bands on the Key West radar, but the storm's low-level organization is poor.

The latest forecast models are all in agreement, calling for a landfall in the Everglades tonight, a long passage up the spine of Florida, followed by a re-emergence into the Atlantic and possible re-intensification to a Category 1 hurricane before a second landfall in the Carolinas.
