Won't even amount to much of any rain in Austin. Far too many bougies live here nowadays to allow any flooding to occurs. They'll just activate the rain dome shield.

A cyclone forms in the southern hemisphere and travels halfway across the world through an entire continent just to slap my nuts clockwise before fizzling out

Honestly pretty sure I'm going to die in a historic rain event if we don't move soon. If that Italy thing had happened here I'd already be dead!

Nah, I'm gentrifying tech scum in Holly neighborhood. I'm just outside of a 1000 year flood plain for boggy creek that was drawn well before the massive wave of development really took hold down here. I'll be fine tomorrow. But a freak storm dumping feet of rain? That could be deadly!

It's happened before, and this one is getting juiced by a trough over the continent so there's a decent chance it is extra tropical before then. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Lidia_(1993) There are flash flood watches for Central Texas so probably see some floating cars next few days. https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=EWX&issuedby=EWX&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1

Looks like at the equator on the international dateline you could have a typhoon, hurricane and cyclone all meet. But the Hurricane and cyclone could never touch.

I don’t think it’s possible for a tropical cyclone to make it to the equator (not a meteorologist, though). Your characters will be separated by the horizon, knowing that a kindred spirit exists just out of sight but blocked by the cruel mistress that is physics.

Your characters will be separated by the horizon, knowing that a kindred spirit exists just out of sight but blocked by the cruel mistress that is physics. yeah the circular motion of a hurricane is caused by the Coriolis effect. it's sort of easier to imagine it in cylindrical coordinates, not spherical. the same angular momentum of a cloud at different latitudes will be at different ground velocities, and since momentum is for the most part conserved you'll have clouds that move towards the poles leading the clouds that are closer to the equator, which makes a little vortex. this doesn't work at the equator, you'll have the polewards clouds both moving faster than the center when it's at the equator, which wont give you a rotation. you can still have a ton of moisture in the atmosphere, it just wont be spinning.

We've had four major hurricanes this season so far. Ida was the real bad one, which nuked Louisiana. Grace made it to Major Hurricane Status (Cat 3 or above) and hit Mexico which did a lot of damage. The other two strong ones were Larry and Sam which both stayed out to sea for the most part.

I had to drive through Pamela earlier. was pretty crazy having water splash up from the sides of the road. not particularly bad tho and it seemed to move through pretty fast. I think this might’ve been the first recognizable tropical storm here, usually everything withers away before. these pacific thingers have some potential.

redleader posted:what are you supposed to do in a tornado if you don't have a basement? go to the innermost room without windows and preferably stand in a door frame, iirc. you're still gonna die if your house gets a direct hit, but it'll give you a higher chance of not being hit by debris if it just skirts by you

Luckily the tornado warning got cancelled shortly after it was issued and there were no tornadoes but I’ve never seen a tornado warning for Sydney before. There was an actual tornado the other week out in regional NSW and that was bizarre enough for most people. We don’t even know where it sat in the scale because it didn’t go over any wind speed recorders. We have an underground car park but no basement where I live. The bathroom has no exterior walls and would be the safest I guess. There has to be a good Wizard of Oz joke in here somewhere.

Cold front my rear end. It never went below 70 yesterday. I would call it slightly at room temperature front.
