satellite data and ship observations indicate that the low
pressure area between the West Coast of Mainland Mexico and Baja
California now has a closed surface circulation. SHIPS observations
of 45 to 50 kt from elevated anemometers suggest that the initial
intensity is around 40 kt...and advisories are being initiated on
Tropical Storm Norman at this time. Norman is situated in an
environment of 15 to 20 kt of southwesterly shear...as microwave
imagery indicates that the surface center is displaced about a
degree to the southwest of the mid-level circulation. This shear is
forecast by the global models to continue until the center moves
inland...so the NHC forecast only shows a little intensification
before landfall. After the center moves inland...quick weakening is
expected...and the cyclone is expected to dissipate by 48 hours.
The initial motion estimate is 360/14...as Norman is situated
between a subtropical ridge centered over the Gulf of Mexico and a
mid-level low to the west. A general northward motion is expected
during the next day or so...and Norman is forecast to make landfall
within 24 hours. After landfall...the weakening cyclone may turn
northwestward before dissipating. The NHC forecast is near the
middle of the guidance envelope through landfall.
Users are reminded not to focus on the exact track of the
center since Norman has a large area of tropical-storm force
winds. In addition...heavy rainfall and flash flooding are also
expected over portions of the Mexican states of sinaloa and far
western Durango.

Click on the little radio Button next to "CLOUDS" in the box.
I know it ain't easy, Mike, but I have confidence that you can do it.

Just when we thought we'd seen the last of Normans' influence over here there are projected paths bringing what's left back across the SOC. We had
some heavy rains this morning and right now it looks like Mulege is getting hammered again.

my feeling is, it might just keep coming up the gulf and the warmer waters, I think Dennis might be right, the gulf is acting like a vacuum cleaner

It may have had the stuffing knocked out of it but we had some heavy showers this morning that didn't show on the satellite. We've had enough rain for
awhile now. Any more is just clean up work.

The remnants of Norman are turning towards Mulege. Heavy rains here in Nopolo, no wind.
This storm made an about face. I know we need rain, but this is a little excessive.

Business As Usual
A BIG spashdown at 6 this morning got me scrambling to close windows-- sunny with partial clouds to the north now, 9:30 a.m.
