Hurricane Hole up the Escambia River

beckslake1 — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 15:33:04 GMT

I own Becks Lake Fish Camp that is located north of Solutia at the end of Becks Lake Road and connects with the Escambia River. It is a well protected basin that many boaters have used before in hurricanes and is accessed by a channel off of the Escambia River. We try to offer some kind of ferry service to those that want to anchor in the "lake" and don't have their own dingy. You can call Billy Brooks at 850-435-5557 for more info.

Tropical Season

Magic236 — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 10:45:05 GMT

The following is from this AM's Tropical Comments from Crown Weather. I have found this to be a useful site. www.crownweather.com

Item number two of interest is an area of disturbed weather in the southern Gulf of Mexico just north and northwest of the Yucatan Peninsula. This disturbed weather is in association with the interaction of a tropical wave and a upper-level low pressure system. This disturbed area of weather is expected to be drawn northward into the northern Gulf of Mexico and then inland over the next 36 hours ahead of a trough of low pressure tracking into the eastern United States. Development is not expected from this system, however, it will be watched closely as environmental conditions are favorable for development over the northern Gulf of Mexico.

Getting Close.................

Every time I scroll past the topic headers scouting new info and reports I see this old post from way back and I got tired of looking at it. I hope that I haven't wasted anyone’s time by posting this, but I do want to wish all who travel here a safe, productive and happy spring and summer season this year. Be it whether you’re on the water, local, far away or stuck behind a desk like me dreaming of all of the upcoming fishing adventures. This place is the greatest, Thanks Chris..... Tight lines to all.

Heads Up

Even though the man-made cutoff point of the Atlantic hurricane season has come and gone, it does not mean that Mother Nature has to obey those deadlines.

A new area of low pressure has developed about 200 miles east of Puerto Rico. The disturbance is not highly organized with the majority of thunderstorms remaining north of the low pressure's center of circulation.

Environmental conditions remain slightly favorable for further organization but it is possible that a tropical or subtropical storm may form within the next 24 hours.

Even if the disturbance does not organize further, it will still bring gusty winds and squalls of tropical downpours to the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and Hispaniola.

Only a few hours left in the official hurricane season, and no big blows. Whew!!!:clap

Gulf Water Temp below 78.8

oldflathead — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 06:19:49 GMT

Looks like we got through without a hurricane! YEAH!

Gulf water temperature less than 78.8 degrees will not support hurricane formation, so we be there.

We will be announcing the annual Bayou Chico Babes and Bubbas *&%%$#@

Hurricane Party. Usually we have it after Thanksgiving, will keep you posted as to date, location, etc.:clap

Possible tropical Wx later this week

Waaayyy to early to tell but most of the models like this low to move up our way and possibly develop into a tropical system. Looks like a repeat of the depression that went into FWB a couple weeks ago. [url]http://www.wunderground.com/tropical/tracking/at180090_model.html[/url]
