Hey CNN - to this point Hurricane Lee has not entered the Caribbean

[malaise]

It is in the Atlantic.
Its outer bands will affect the Northern Leewards and Virgin Islands this weekend.
It has also weakened significantly although it is expected to slow down and regain strength.
Models suggest that it will veer north.

[brooklynite]

1. Context?

[malaise]

3. Coming from you that's a joke right?

[gab13by13]

9. Jamaica Me Crazy, malaise.

I will take you over CNN any day. 😊

[malaise]

10. LOL

I cannot believe a weather person at CNN wrote that Lee is moving through the Caribbean. To date Lee has not veered out of the Atlantic.

[roomtomove]

27. Trump is on their staff

and using his sharpie

[malaise]

31. LOL

That one will live in infamy. Told us everything we need to know about that lying, criminal, rapist piece of shit.

[rubbersole]

49. Don't hold back, malaise...

...I totally agree with gab13by13. You are more aware of hurricane movements than anyone on TV. And we thank you for it.

[malaise]

59. Not true

Some folks know their stuff😀

[OneBlueDotS-Carolina]

2. Later today, CNN

will have a poll saying Lee is too old to be a hurricane...

[malaise]

4. DUzy! You win the thread 😀😀😀😀🥹

Hands down.

[chowder66]

58. +1

[BumRushDaShow]

8. LOL

[moniss]

20. The poll will be conducted

and the results will scroll incessantly during a half hour program in which CNN will have on 4 experts who will declare the hurricane is in disarray and will have to find a way to appeal to white, rural, marginalized voters if it has any hope of regaining it's strength.

[Scrivener7]

32. But they will only be polling pissed-off tropical storms who didn't get to have names.

[Baitball Blogger]

44. On the Cat 5 laughing meter.

Thanks for that.

[Prairie_Seagull]

46. BREAKING wind news.

I chose wisely which thread to open first this morning.

[Strelnikov_]

63. Good one n/t

[pwb]

5. Thanks for all the weather updates Malaise.

Peace to you.

[malaise]

7. You're welcome

The CNN lady said Lee was moving through the Caribbean - someone should give a map to whoever wrote that.

[OneBlueDotS-Carolina]

12. All the models suggest Lee will turn north...

https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/storminfo/#13L

[malaise]

13. Indeed

PHEW!😀

[BumRushDaShow]

6. You tell 'em malaise

That thing hit the roaring subtropical jet stream that is blowing from west to east, and is pushing it back, causing the expected turn more northerly.

[malaise]

18. Hahahahha

She just gave an update and this time said Atlantic

[moniss]

21. Next update

will be the Indian Ocean.

[malaise]

25. Nah - Gulf of Mexico

😀😀😀

[Scrivener7]

34. Historic Mediterranean Hurricane!!! And now a word from our sponsors...

[malaise]

35. Howling with laughter😀

[Igel]

57. Salton Sea. n/t

[malaise]

62. That is the first time I heard about

The Salton Sea - had to look it up.

The Salton Sea is a shallow, landlocked, highly saline body of water in Riverside and Imperial counties at the southern end of the U.S. state of California.

[Igel]

64. It's the remains of an ecological disaster.

A bunch of water was diverted, wound up in a valley, and since then it's accumulated pollutants, salts, and it's slowly dried up.

Simultaneously, a lot of nice housing and vacation space appeared around it and environmentalists want the toxic dump that it is now replenished with water because migratory birds came to use it en route north or south and it's unclear that there are still sufficient sites for them to land and rest/drink/eat.

I cited it as an unlikely place to Lee to head to.

[malaise]

65. Thanks for the lesson

Interesting 😀

[BumRushDaShow]

48. Well I guess that was a start. lol

This is looking like it will mostly be a fish storm (hopefully)!

[Shanti Shanti Shanti]

11. Fear porn over another fish storm, again. Let us know if it veers off to Boston, NYC

[malaise]

16. This is a major hurricane so people do need to pay attention

but geographical accuracy is required.

[Butterflylady]

14. Once again CNN is not a reliable source.

Who knew?

[malaise]

15. This one was stunning

Bangs head

[OneBlueDotS-Carolina]

17. CNN's new weatherperson, John Barron

who knows more about hurricanes than anyone, will appear with his Sharpie.

[malaise]

19. LOL

😀😀

[LiberalArkie]

23. Is it too late to bring back Ted Turner?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

22. Sure, it's in the Caribbean. Give me a map and a sharpie ... nt/jk

[malaise]

37. Hehehehhe

😀

[MacKasey]

24. It is changing course

I use the Windy app and have been watching Lee since Wednesday and earlier it looked like it would veer north to Maine and Canada
Now just miss them

[malaise]

28. The models at Tropical Tidbits always suggested

Last edited Wed Sep 13, 2023, 09:17 AM - Edit history (1)

that it would veer north.

[ornotna]

54. Heh heh heh

You said Tit Bits.

[malaise]

56. Not me

That effin spellcheck😀😀😀😀

[malaise]

61. You were correct

That was my error.

[DinahMoeHum]

26. The NOAA website is far more reliable

Screw CNN


https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

[malaise]

30. We all know this but a major cable network should get the facts right

Lee has not veered into the Caribbean, so it can’t be moving through the Caribbean which was what she said. Outer bands will affect the northern Leewards and the Virgin Islands over the weekend.

[Scrivener7]

36. Not loving the western spaghetti strands heading for our area, Dinah.

I'm watching this one, though it seems likely to be OK.

[spanone]

29. Bwahahahahahaaa

[paleotn]

33. Geography is not their strong suit.

NOAA track is finally starting to show the big right turn most models have predicted. Not so good for our friends in Halifax. Appears Nova Scotia is going to get hit again.

[malaise]

38. Yep

Atlantic Canada was always going to have to watch this one big time

New England need to pay attention for outerbands and rough seas

[paleotn]

45. We are most definitely watching this one.

More rain. Wonderful. Just what we needed.

[jaxexpat]

41. That guy on Sable Island better batten down his hatches.

Better yet just leave for a couple of weeks.

[paleotn]

47. Yep. Worried about the horses more than anything.

But then again, this isn't the first hurricane for Sable's horses.

[jaxexpat]

60. true data

[edhopper]

39. Headed to Alabama!

just get out the sharpie.

[gab13by13]

40. I have to tell this story,

This summer my daughter and family went on vacation to Jamaica.

There was a tropical storm forming in the general vicinity so I went to the most trusted name in news, malaise, for updates.

True story. I relayed the information to my daughter and malaise's info was spot on.

[malaise]

42. I am no weather expert

I take advice from the real experts. Glad they had such a good time in JA 😀😀

[ancianita]

43. Thank you for the update. Whew!

Thank heaven for the west to east current!


And thanks for watching CNN so I don't have to -- I haven't watched CNN in twenty years.

[Prairie_Seagull]

50. Hope this turns out to be nothing more than great surfing in North Carolina.

Used to live on the beach in NC. Still watch the beach cams when the waves are supposed to be big.

Good luck to all. Even surfers.

[HuskyOffset]

51. LIES! Here is the REAL Hurricane Lee map

[malaise]

52. Nicely played😀

[GreenWave]

53. So if the Bermuda Triangle theorists are correct and it is projected to go closeby...

why not just pull in the hurricane and zap it out of existence?

[malaise]

55. You folks are having way too much fun

This better be a fish storm😀😀
