AN ACTIVE LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAS BEEN MOVING SLOWLY EASTWARD ACROSS THE WESTERN FLORIDA PANHANDLE BUT THE REAL PUSH IS YET TO ARRIVE. EXPECT THIS LINE TO ACCELERATE EASTWARD THIS EVENING POSSIBLY REACHING THE LEVY COAST BEFORE 7 AM. THE MOST INTENSE STORMS WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH A LOW-LEVEL JET OF 50 TO 60 KNOTS MOVING ACROSS THE NATURE COAST AROUND SUNRISE. THIS JET QUICKLY LIFTS OUT TO THE NORTH. HOWEVER, SO OUR CURRENT THINKING IS THAT THE SEVERE THREAT WILL BE LOWER FROM ABOUT TAMPA BAY SOUTHWARD AS THE LINE MOVES BY DURING THE MID-MORNING HOURS. POLK COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT EOC WILL CONTINUALLY MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS FRONT AND WILL ADVISE OF CHANGES, IF NECESSARY. ATTACHED ARE THE LATEST RADAR IMAGES OF THIS WEATHER SYSTEM.

Keep in mind, there will be a couple of minor updates throughout next year leading into the 2009 Hurricane Season. As you can see at the bottom, Dr. Gray predictions accuracy for the 2008 Hurricane Season was either conservative or dead on the money. ATLANTIC BASIN SEASONAL HURRICANE FORECAST FOR 2009 Forecast Parameter and 1950-2000 Climatology (in parentheses) 10 December 2008 Forecast for 2009 Named Storms (NS) (9.6) 14 Named Storm Days (NSD) (49.1) 70 Hurricanes (H) (5.9) 7 Hurricane Days (HD) (24.5) 30 Intense Hurricanes (IH) (2.3) 3 Intense Hurricane Days (IHD) (5.0) 7 Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) (96.1) 125 Net Tropical Cyclone Activity (NTC) (100%) 135 PROBABILITIES FOR AT LEAST ONE MAJOR (CATEGORY 3-4-5) HURRICANE LANDFALL ON EACH OF THE FOLLOWING COASTAL AREAS: 1) Entire U.S. coastline - 63% (average for last century is 52%) 2) U.S. East Coast Including Peninsula Florida - 39% (average for last century is 31%) 3) Gulf Coast from the Florida Panhandle westward to Brownsville - 38% (average for last century is 30%) 4) Above-average major hurricane landfall risk in the Caribbean Information obtained through November 2008 indicates that the 2009 Atlantic hurricane season will be somewhat more active than the average 1950-2000 season. We estimate that 2009 will have about 7 hurricanes (average is 5.9), 14 named storms (average is 9.6), 70 named storm days (average is 49.1), 30 hurricane days (average is 24.5), 3 intense (Category 3-4-5) hurricanes (average is 2.3) and 7 intense hurricane days (average is 5.0). The probability of U.S. major hurricane landfall is estimated to be about 120 percent of the long-period average. We expect Atlantic basin Net Tropical Cyclone (NTC) activity in 2009 to be about 135 percent of the long-term average. This forecast is based on a new extended-range early December statistical prediction scheme that utilizes 58 years of past data. The influences of El Ni?o conditions are implicit in these predictor fields, and therefore we do not utilize a specific ENSO forecast as a predictor. We currently do not expect to see El Ni?o conditions during the 2009 Atlantic hurricane season. 2008 7 Dec. 2007 Update 9 April Update 3 June Update 5 August Obs.

This is the first C class solar flare since April 03, 2008. Also a filament eruption occurred in the northwest quadrant of the Sun beginning at approximately 0615 UTC. This produced a weak partially geo-effective (Earth facing) coronal mass ejection (CME) that "may" impact Earth's geomagnetic field in a minor way (Kp 3) on or about Monday December 15, 2008. 73 & GUD DX, Thomas F.
