It's a rotating list, most of these names have been in rotation for decades.Who names these things?
You were there for Hugo, right? I went down two weeks after to volunteer (was stationer there ‘84-‘87.)Bertha, that you?
She's trying to form.
It's a good tropical rain right now, not the wind though ... yet.

Just saw this. At least it will be quick.Officially official
@NHC_Atlantic: Tropical Storm #Bertha has formed near the coast of South Carolina this morning. Heavy rainfall will be the biggest threat, along with tropical storm force winds along portions of the South Carolina coast http://hurricanes.gov https://twitter.com/NHC_Atlantic/status/1265617279091261442/photo/1
Earliest 3rd named storm in history.JaxBill said:@RyanMaue: Weather models continue to predict a high potential of a strong tropical storm or hurricane in the western Gulf of Mexico later this week. #TropicalUpdate https://twitter.com/RyanMaue/status/1267429290305564672/photo/1
That's wild that multiple models have it taking a counter clockwise loop, almost 360, back over the Yucatan.
My in-laws have been in Cancun through this whole shutdown thing. They fly home tomorrow. Seems like just in time, the weather there is really bad they said already.That's wild that multiple models have it taking a counter clockwise loop, almost 360, back over the Yucatan.

Nice. We’re holding off until next year, but if there was ever a week for sod, it’s this week.I just put in new sod!
My sod is going in on Tuesday (if it stops raining).I just put in new sod!
If you want more, the Treasure Coast, is flooded with it. Literally.Getting some much needed rain here in Tampa...
That thing is already as far north as Massachusetts. Seems pretty far north for new-storm formation ... Edouard is making a beeline for Scotland.
Surely the Atlantic and Gulf are cooler than normal, at least around Florida?Weather patterns have been bizarro all summer here in FL imo. Hoping this aids in all of these named storms just going away as soon as they form.
