am19psu Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Let's keep the main Irene thread clean for scientific discussion of the track and intensity forecasts and trends while we discuss more banter-y stuff here. I'll be moving posts from the main thread here if they aren't on topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewxmann Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Irene to tropical weenies = March 2001 for winter weenies if this thing continues to trend north into a recurvature scenario. P.S. Did not read the subtitle. This is NOT a weenie fantasy. Rather, I'd call this a weenie nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtg947h Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I'm probably the only one here saying this, but the farther east the track shifts, the better.

Juliancolton Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I've been hoping for a week and a half now that what would become 97L and later Irene would get a name other than Irene... I don't want one of the last good names retired. 2017 will have an 'I' name I can't pronounce and have no idea how to spell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doorman Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I get the vibe on here that some mets are offended by amateurs that have a skill level equal to their own without their terminology for every aspect of this system todays trends west ... land interaction and lack of anti-cyclone above should keep things in check thats all I got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this as a fish last Monday when it shifted". Thanks. Still looks like a worrisome setup for the EC to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witness Protection Program Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I'm probably the only one here saying this, but the farther east the track shifts, the better. Nothing would make me happier than a fish right now. Evacuations here would be a mess You're not alone, I always root against a major making landfall. Besides the obvious deaths, injuries, and loss of homes, the last thing our struggling economy needs is significant wealth destruction (the argument that rebuilding provides an economic boost is bunk, it does so locally but is still a net drain of wealth.)
