August is here, and the third tropical storm of the season is slowly building strength in the Atlantic.
Right now, TS Chris is heading for south Florida, and doesn't look like it's going to turn into anything too nasty. However, forecast models have been uniformly wrong about this storm so far, so take that with a grain of salt.
Current projections say South Floridians should watch out for Sunday and Monday.
One other tidbit to point out: Look at the projected track of the storm. That gap of water between Cuba and Florida? The one that has the track of the storm going right thru it? You know what's right on the other side of it, don't you?
Yep, that would be the Gulf of Mexico.
It's WAAAYYY too early to start panicking. It's not too early to start paying attention, though.
UPDATE: Wind shear has blown TS Chris to pieces. It's possible, if the remaining disturbance which used to be Chris makes it to the Gulf, the storm could regenerate. Most likely, however, we've heard the last of Chris.
