Tropical Update...5am Monday Morning

4:54 AM Mon, Jul 21, 2008 |

All eyes are watching the tropics...in several spots this morning. To start, Cristobal is still skirting the North Carolina coastline, and is expected to stay along the coast up the mid-Atlantic, and possibly making landfall in Newfoundland later this week.

Dolly is a tropical storm this morning, along or near the Yucatan peninsula. I am vague about the position of Dolly because her center is not really defined this morning, and some models are hinting at her reforming a center North of her current position. Because of the uncertainty with Dolly, everyone along the western coast of the Gulf of Mexico should be watching her progression into the Gulf. Right now, she stands to bring higher than normal rain chances into Western Louisiana, with a landfall in Southern Texas/Northern Mexico (I am leaning more towards Southern Texas.
