A Race Day Storm Brewing?
The Latest Tropical Weather Outlook: (found here after all of the Wilma information)
Current Atlantic Basin Information:
SHOWER ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE TROPICAL WAVE IN THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN SEA HAS BECOME MORE CONCENTRATED ABOUT 200 MILES SOUTH OF PUERTO RICO. THIS SYSTEM IS PRODUCING A LARGE AREA OF SQUALLS EXTENDING TO PORTIONS OF THE VIRGIN ISLANDS...AND PUERTO RICO. THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF A CIRCULATION AT THIS TIME BUT CONDITIONS APPEAR TO BE FAVORABLE FOR A TROPICAL DEPRESSION TO FORM DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS IT MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD ABOUT 15 MPH. INTERESTS IN PUERTO RICO AND HISPANIOLA SHOULD MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM.
If it really moves West-Northwest and doesn't get big we should be okay.... Hopefully the weather will clear up ASAP!
We're scheduled to be on the Seaplane this morning in a couple hours and then we should have some time to explore St Croix before race check-in and information sessions start.
