Where the heck did the Tropical Depression (becoming a Tropical Storm) come from in the Gulf ovenight? I am on the National Hurricane/Weather Advisory email list so I get these notices in. I have been monitoring TS Ana for a few days to see which direction she is heading. Now we have TS Bill and TD 4. TS Ana looks like it is heading towards the Atlantic East coast and TS Bill is heading towards the Atlantic/Gulf West coast. But, now we have a TD right off the Gulf coast. So, it looks like Florida will be surrounded by some bad weather or if the storms head to the East and West, it could suck the bad weather into them. Below is a map of the Atlantic basin active storms. And, just as an FYI, there’s a Hurricane Guillermo formed in the lower Atlantic, so I will track that storm to see if it comes our way. We have been lucky these past few ‘hurricane’ months, but now I guess it’s our turn to deal with the storms; although we sure have had our share of the rainfall, at least in our area, which is normally high and dryish.
