TROPICAL DEPRESSION BETA Discussion Thread

Wow it appears to already be forming feeder bands~

My daughter teaches in St. Charles Parish - same there as to losing fall break.  Next they will want to cut into Christmas break!

Looks like it has a mid level circulation already.

The overall bones are already in order. Just need the convection to start. Rather proximal to Mexico now so may take a while. Like many, I like being in the projected area 5 or more days out as it usually doesn’t pan out. This is a little different imo. Climatology says a more NW N or NE path this time of year. A trough will pick it up. If not, the high could still build enough to permeate the Gulf and force it W into Mexico. It could also miss the first trough, hang out as some depict then the next one grabs it. Bottom line to me is a greater overall tendency to come N. I think that is part of Dave Bernard’s post. I’m timeframe clueless right now.

maybe maybe see a tropical depression advisory maybe tonight

I will be saying a prayer for you again to spare LA but this afternoon I need a prayer from all of you, my mom is in ICU in St Augustine this afternoon battling Covid, went into emergency pre-dawn short of breath and without able to swallow any food for the past 24 hrs from coughing so much, no fever which was weird. She was still waiting for results after she had taken a test for Covid this past Monday after my brother, sister-in-law had fever last week. My nephew living with them also had fever, had tested positive when he went to Emergency during the weekend for being dehydrated from the fever, but he's fine now.
We are hoping she went in just in time and feel confident she will be OK. Talking to a cousin of mine who is a nurse practitioner down in Miami says that Covid treatment has come a long way from when the virus started which they didn't really know how to treat it and so many people were dying at first.
Thank you all in advance.
