Nothing new yet but the tropics is hot right now
Bertha is STILL chugging along as a strong tropical storm, and she's now the longest lived July storm ever. No signs of her weakening yet, but she should be well on her way out to see by the beginning of next week.
The potential "Cristobal" near South America and the Windward Islands is trying to reform again, and hurricane hunters have either just finished investigating or are still investigating. What I don't know is if they've found anything, or if they just haven't decided whether to make it TD-3 yet. There was a special statement on the NHC webpage earlier saying it could be forming, but they've taken that off, at least for now.
The next best chance for a system is by Nicarauga and Panama, but it's got to get its act together quickly or it will hit land.
Finally, there is a system just off the coast of Tampa, Florida, but it's very close to land, so chances are slim it will actually develop.
So, by tomorrow we could either have Bertha, Cristobal, Dolly & Edouard, or possibly just a weakening Bertha. We shall have to wait to find out.
Finally, I voted in the "gulp" Democratic Georgia primaries yesterday...only because our Georgia Assembly seat, #53, was a tight race and there is no republican challenger. Unfortunately, the race is SO close that they haven't yet tabulated the results, and depending on what news outlet you look at, my candidate, Elly Dobbs, is winning by a bit or her challenger is winning by a bit. We'll have to wait and see!
