odette & peter: warming up for parallel runs at the E Gulf and E coast

[MrPosti...@kymhorsell.com]

My s/w has detected another couple SST blips that line up with NOAA
updates to the NA LPA map.

<https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/xgtwo/two_atl_5d0.png>

The blips over the last 2-3 days warn of a smallish storm on the E
coast and a larger storm in the C-E Gulf region both in around a week.

The NOAA has upgraded 2 LPA's in the Atlantic. One of W Africa is now
a 90% chance of developing within 5d and looks set to hear to the Caribbean.

The 2nd off the US E coast has a 60% chance of coming to life in the
next 5 days and doing another close run by NY and points north along
the coast..

Nicholas is inland of the TX coast and headed toward LA at a slow 6
mph dumping plenty of rain. Power out to 1/2 mn customers. LA
power have just gotten electricity back on to 90% of their
customers from Ida. The rainfall is also likely to crowd people
indoors when the covid epidemic is spiking again.
