You're trying to get TWO ADs in for one nitpicking statement aren't you? Hurricane Season 2005 The 2005 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active on record. Twenty-eight named tropical (or subtropical) storms formed, breaking the old record of 21 of in 1995. Fifteen storms became hurricanes, breaking the old record of twelve of 1969. Seven of the hurricanes became major hurricanes (category three or higher on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale) including four, Emily, Katrina, Rita and Wilma, which reached a potentially catastrophic category five intensity As far as our islands are concerned, only the ABC Islands were somewhat threatened by hurricane Emily The center of Hurricane Emily passed about 180 km north of the ABC islands on July 14 and 15 The Natural bridge of Aruba had started cracking even before 2005. The The record season of hurricanes in 2005 and the effect of Emily finally caused the bridge to collapse about a month later. So, what news releases does Ray Goldenberg have that's contrary to the above reports of the effects of hurricanes on the ABC islands? Ray, you are SO DUMB in your AD tactics that everyone is exposed to your spamming activities now. Making TWO ADs out of a NIT that the bridge was not blown down by the direct hit of a hurricane is about as useful as your press releases. -- Bob. |

Obviously stolen without attribution. > The center of Hurricane Emily passed about 180 km north of the ABC > islands on July 14 and 15 Emily's center passed over Grenada near 0700 UTC 14 July. (cite: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ms-word/TCR-AL052005_Emily.doc ) And what's wrong here is that its not 180km (100 miles) from Grenada (12:30N x 61:36W) to Aruba (12:30N x 70:00W): the distance is actually over 550 miles. Just a little 500% error The same NOAA report also states: "Emily passed directly over Grenada. Point Salines International Airport, just to the south of the path of the center, reported a peak gust of 58 kt." (cite: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ms-word/TCR-AL052005_Emily.doc ) 58 knots gust is below hurricane force, and Point Salines is on the island of Grenada, so this shows that there were no hurricane force winds that reached south towards Aruba. Furthermore, the NOAA estimate of Emily's tropical force wind field was that it only extended out ~90 miles to the south (towards Aruba) at this time. (cite: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2005...adv.014.shtml? ). Since its 500+ miles distant to Aruba, this means that Emily's lowest measured wind field ... 34kt Tropical Storm force ... fell short of reaching Aruba by over 400 miles. Ditto for its measured seas. As such, on 14 July 2005, Aruba had a nice day: Daily Summary Actual Average Record Temperature Mean Temperature 84 °F / 28 °C - Max Temperature 88 °F / 31 °C - - () Min Temperature 79 °F / 26 °C - - () Cooling Degree Days 18 Growing Degree Days 34 (Base 50) Moisture Dew Point 77 °F / 25 °C Average Humidity 83 Maximum Humidity 94 Minimum Humidity 74 Precipitation Precipitation 0.02 in / 0.0 cm - - () Sea Level Pressure Sea Level Pressure 29.85 in / 1011 hPa Wind Wind Speed 6 mph / 9 km/h () Max Wind Speed 13 mph / 20 km/h Max Gust Speed - Visibility 7.5 miles / 11.7 kilometers Events Rain (cite: Weather Undeground archive; http://tinyurl.com/nlehb ) > The Natural bridge of Aruba had started cracking even before 2005.

July 14th to September 2nd is 50 days, which is closer to two months. -hh |
