Hauled out 1 power boat for Hurricane Danny and left the sailboat on it's mooring since it's only a 22 footer and it is hanging on a block of cement the size of a truck. Danny fizzled out but we are still going to see 50+ mph winds here in Chatham this afternoon. But I am not complaining...Thanks for the good luck! Well here we are again, 2 storms in 1 week!

When a hurricane of this size is heading your way and you have 2 boats in the water, the more information the merrier. At the moment 8/22 AM I will be leaving the boats on their moorings in Chatham, MA but tropical storm force winds are extending out for 275 miles so I will be putting on some extra tie downs. Not having to haul out left me some extra time yesterday to reminisce about riding out Hurricane Hugo on a 59' Trimaran in Culebra, PR http://wp.me/pb0Ok-28 Like seeing the maybe in maybe some winds gusting to just above tropical storm force.

It was impressive 24-36 hours ago. Looks like the models had the right idea, but kept the system too strong too far west. Great news for the Caribbean and Bermuda.

This is why we don't trust long range forecasts - too much uncertainty. Models are still convinced the first storm of the season will develop during this next week, but unsure of direction.

This time however, a weakeness in the suptropical high allow for the low to recurve much faster. This simply means that the new models are taking the low northward much farther east than yesterday's forecast. :) The latest models continue to develop a low off of the African coast.
