Updated hurricane forecast for 2020
 
'Extremely active' hurricane season possible for Atlantic Basin

Things could get dicey with the CCP Virus floating around to complicate evacuation plans.

Heads up:
Looks like Number 13 is not-so-lucky...

Southern and western FL are going to take a hit no matter what, and where it actually lands, nobody knows...:

Number 14 is also expected to become hurricane force and to land somewhat westward - TX and especially LA are likely to see a pretty heavy storm.

Yeah, been watching that one ever since it showed up on Ventusky. The forecast track seems to be gradually inching further west each time I check on it. But being on the east side of a Gulf based hurricane gets you the brunt of most of the feeder bands. But a dead center eyewall hit is no picnic, of course.

Luckily I placed another battery powered chainsaw on order last week. Might come in handy. I've got a couple of gas powered chainsaws laying around here somewhere, too, just in case.

Just keeping our eyes on this one. The forecast is far enough out that anything is possible before it actually gets into our neighborhood.

TD Fourteen seems to be taking an interest in Houston, TX at the moment.

Like we don't have enough on our hands with Covid.

Looks like Louisiana is in for a tropical storm Tuesday and a hurricane Wednesday.

Looks like Fourteen's track is moving further east. I can't see an updated track for Thirteen for some reason, but that appeared to be moving further west. Sheesh, sure could get ugly in Louisiana if they both slammed that state. The waters in the Gulf of Mexico should be pretty warm this time of year.

It's that Murphy's Law thing. I REALLY hate it.

Ah, the reason I couldn't see TD Thirteen's track any longer was because it has been renamed to Tropical Storm Laura and evidently the people running the displays couldn't figure out how to tie the two together with the URL for their viewers. :face_palm_02:

Anyway, it seems to have moved it's track further west, now pointing to Mobile, Alabama. But I expect that will change too.
