Disney Wonder Sept 3-7, 2006 Part 3

[mom_of_2_princesses]

Nah.. none of them were actually.
Liz died of Leukemia..
Clinton died when a propane tank in the camper he was in exploded...
Lisa and Chris died in a car accident on their way to school.. went off the road, overcorrected and swerved onto the other side and got T-Boned..
Ryan died on his way home from college for Christmas break.. fell asleep and rear-ended a semi..
and I don't know how Andrew died? Just saw the clip of an obituary.

A lot of people started to think our high school is cursed.. :shudders: scary, scary stuff..

It reminds me of that movie what is the name of it where all the friends start dying. They made a sequel to it.

Final Destination?

 

[mom_of_2_princesses]

Final Destination?

That's it!

 

[mom_of_2_princesses]

Do you feel totally creeped out now? Sorry!

 

[Piecey]

Haha, great.. so now I get to have nightmares that the entire school was meant to go down and we're just slowly being picked off..

We did have a Bomb Threat and the entire school was evacuated.. maybe that was our 'crisis' that was averted? Now we must all meet our destiny! haha

Oh great! Do you want to fly now?

 

[mom_of_2_princesses]

I better go to bed now!

 

[Piecey]

OH MAN!

Michael went to a different high school.. I'll be safe with him..

O wait.. nvm.. we're taking different flights!

You all best be careful, if the pilot is too good.. fate might come looking for me on the Wonder!

 

[Piecey]

Okkkay.. I'm off to bed I suppose.
Work tomorrow :-\

A week and a half of constant fast-food left, o joy!

TROPICAL STORM DEBBY DISCUSSION NUMBER 7
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL042006
500 AM EDT WED AUG 23 2006

THE SATELLITE APPEARANCE OF DEBBY CONTINUES TO IMPROVE AND A
0331 UTC AQUA MICROWAVE OVERPASS DETECTED A FAIRLY WELL ORGANIZED SYSTEM...WITH WELL DEFINED BANDS AROUND THE CENTER. DVORAK INTENSITY ESTIMATES ARE 45 KT FROM SAB...AND 35 KT FROM TAFB AND AFWA. THEREFORE...THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS INCREASED TO 40 KT.

THE INITIAL MOTION ESTIMATE IS 295/14. DEBBY IS CURRENTLY BEING STEERED WEST-NORTHWEST TO NORTHWESTWARD AROUND THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF A MID-TO UPPER-LEVEL RIDGE CENTERED NEAR THE AZORES.
THE RELIABLE TRACK MODELS ARE TIGHTLY CLUSTERED...MAINTAINING THIS MOTION THROUGH THE NEXT 48 TO 72 HOURS. AT DAYS 4 AND 5...GLOBAL MODELS DEVELOP A SIGNIFICANT WEAKNESS IN THE RIDGE AS A MID- TO UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH AMPLIFIES OVER THE CENTRAL ATLANTIC. THE TRACK DIFFERENCES SEEN IN THE THE GLOBAL MODELS APPEAR TO BE THE RESULT OF DIFFERENCES IN THE FORECAST STRENGTH OF THE TROPICAL CYCLONE. THE UMKET MODEL DEPICTS A MUCH WEAKER SYSTEM AND IN TURN TRACKS IT MORE WESTWARD...WHILE THE GFS AND GFDL MODELS HAVE A STRONGER CYCLONE WHICH FEELS THE EFFECTS OF THE TROUGH AND TURNS NORTHWARD NEAR THE END OF THE PERIOD. THE NOGAPS TRACK SEEMS UNREASONABLE BECAUSE IT RESULTS FROM AN UNREALISTIC DISSIPATION OF THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION AND REFORMATION OF THE SYSTEM FROM A MID- TO UPPER-LEVEL LOW TO THE WEST. THE OFFICIAL TRACK FORECAST IS VERY CLOSE TO THE PREVIOUS ADVISORY THROUGH 72 HOURS. THEREAFTER...
IT HAS BEEN SHIFTED SLIGHTLY TO THE RIGHT IN GENERAL AGREEMENT WITH THE GFS...GFDL...AND THE FSU SUPERENSEMBLE SOLUTIONS.

DEBBY WILL BE ENCOUNTERING DRIER MID-LEVEL AIR AND SLIGHTLY COOLER SSTS OVER THE NEXT 36 HOURS OR SO...WHICH SHOULD KEEP INTENSIFICATION SLOW IN THE NEAR TERM. THEREAFTER... THE CYCLONE WILL BE PASSING OVER WARMER SSTS...BUT SHEAR IS FORECAST TO STRENGTHEN WHICH MAKES FOR A DIFFICULT INTENSITY PREDICTION. THE NHC FORECAST BRINGS DEBBY TO HURRICANE STRENGTH IN 4 DAYS...WHICH IS VERY CLOSE TO THE CONSENSUS OF THE GFDL AND SHIPS...BUT IS LEVELED OFF IN DEFERENCE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF INCREASING SHEAR.

There is an area under NHC investigation trying to form...

TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL 530 AM EDT WED AUG 23 2006

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...


A WELL-DEFINED TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED ABOUT 550 MILES EAST OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS IS MOVING WESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH. ALTHOUGH THIS SYSTEM HAS CHANGED LITTLE IN ORGANIZATION OVERNIGHT...IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO DEVELOP INTO A TROPICAL DEPRESSION DURING THE NEXT DAY OR TWO. INTERESTS IN THE LESSER ANTILLES SHOULD CLOSELY MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM

It's odd, but I somehow EXPECT there to be a hurricane problem on this cruise. I can't wait til we get to the point where we know one way or another if we'll be impacted. As a Floridian, and Sept approaching, it seems we are "due" for something given the last couple of years.

 

[LCTsMom]

Good morning!

Our weather forecaster has been mentioning that other "disturbance" all morning. The fun never stops!

Who are the chatterboxes?

Hey now! I resemble that remark!

 

[taeja71]

Well I think I'm calling it a night too!!!


Good night everyone! I'll leave you with a song:
Artist: Christopher Cross Lyrics
Song: Sailing Lyrics


It's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me

It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me


Sailing
Takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free


Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me


It's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And when the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me

Ohh, good song...


BTW, Good morning all!

 

[taeja71]

Glad I'm not alone..
is 30 another huge milestone? Am I going to have to go through this AGAIN!?

I think I'm moving out... too stressful!

** My brother decided he wants to go back to Morgantown and live. He hates being back here.. can't say I blame him, really..
My parents told me they can't afford to help me get there (to go to school) but just told my brother they'd help him pay his rent if thats what he wanted to do... soo I think I'll just keep my mouth shut and move in with him when the Spring semester starts..

Hope I'm not too blunt, but are you kidding!? I can't tell who's the favorite here.....Patsy, my heart cries out to you girlfriend.

I like your plan of moving in with him!

 

[taeja71]

Can't get too upset, they did raise me..
and i don't think I turned out too bad


... why do my dancing bananas never dance?


lets try again..

was the system frozen again???

 

[LCTsMom]

Ohh, good song...

I always liked that song. It reminds me of vacationing at the Jersey shore.

I hope its when we're already on the ship and the captain says, sorry folks we can't dock back in FL, we'll have to wait it out a bit... in other words, give me extra days on the Wonder due to weather related issues! Bring it on!
