Source: Miami Herald
We know many of you have unboxed the Christmas lights and thoughts of facing your [insert politician name]-loving nephew over Thanksgiving dinner has you dreading the holiday season. But keep this in your thoughts, too: its still hurricane season.
The National Hurricane Center has plopped an X on the map and a cone that shows a disturbance out in the Atlantic that, if you extrapolate the cone way, way outward, takes it on a path toward Florida.
But dont do that. Its far too early and itll only frighten the dog.
Heres what we know now: A tropical wave located several hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms, the hurricane center said in its 7 a.m. Saturday advisory.

It was Florence that spawned the tornado that hit us. A group of Mennonites came through here and took down the ceilings, flooring and walls for free. My wife gave them a nice donation. We moved to NC because we had it after Andrew.

(7,153 posts)If I recall correctly, Oscar started off as 95L, so if this turns into proto-Patty, it would be 96L.
Models At This Moment suggest it might bother the Bahamas and give Floridians a bit of a scare (but not too much) late this week.
Tune back about midweek.

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
Shower activity associated with a tropical wave located several
hundred miles east of the Lesser has increased in organization
during the past several hours and satellite data indicate that the
wave is producing strong gusty winds. No significant development of
this system is anticipated during the next couple of days, but
conditions are forecast to become a little more conducive by
Tuesday, and a tropical or subtropical cyclone could form during the
middle of next week while the system moves near or north of Puerto
Rico, Hispaniola and the southeastern Bahamas.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent.
