JoshM Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'm excited for this storm... I believe it has the potential to be Hugo's little sister or perhaps his pissed off ex wife, depending on what happens in the gulf stream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Yeah, ridiculous is an understatement. We can't get any exciting weather to follow around here. Hardly any good storms this year, and now the one tropical threat goes poof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshM Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'm staying over here where I belong... some people take comments too seriously. It's weather, not the meaning of life. I make a loose comment about the Bermuda high and the low in the gulf being something that happened when Hugo was approaching and people seem to think I meant it was a direct comparison storm to storm.

kvegas-wx Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Has there even been a tropical storm / hurricane interact with a late season strong cold front anywhere across the south? I realize we've had a few events up north, but anything notable around the carolinas, TN, AL, GA? I'm drawing a blank on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 No, a couple of the leaves are yellowish red. It is the same tree that always turns the first. Would the dry conditions make them turn faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerel_sky Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 No, a couple of the leaves are yellowish red. It is the same tree that always turns the first. Would the dry conditions make them turn faster?Yes. If it's a severe enough drought, like weeks and weeks with no rain and heat, they can drop all their leaves. It's a defense mechanism , if they don't have moisture , they can't get the food they need from the leaves, so they drop. In mild drought, they could change early, but some trees start early anyway like poplars, crepe myrtles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
