Bryan Norcross Coming To Podcast, Great Reunion Today, Tropics Remain Quiet

I received confirmation today that nationally renowned Hurricane Specialist Bryan Norcross will be coming to the Bob Breck Podcast.   Bryan became known for his coverage of Hurricane Andrew over South Florida in 1992 and has such a resume that includes stops with CNN, TWC, NBC & CBS News & FOX Weather, etc.  We have been friends for over 40 years, and I look forward to sharing his life story on a future podcast.


But you can't watch it unless you subscribe to my podcast at bobbreck.com. The cost is $2/month or 7 cents a day.  The podcast supplements my WVUE Facebook post and will expand the discussion IF we get a tropical threat in the Gulf.  If no threats, we'll interview special people that you have asked for.


The beauty of the podcast is that it's on your phone wherever you go in case you have to evacuate.  So far this season, we have had no threats, and the next 10-14 days appear likely to continue that trend.  NHC is watching only one area today.





It's way out over the Atlantic, and indications currently have anything that develops curving around the Atlantic Ridge like previous storms this year.  We're stuck in an upper pattern that will keep us very hot & mostly dry into next week.



The upper trough over the eastern Gulf has pushed the old boundary down towards the Yucatan.




We're still very hot, but the dew points are lower with the northerly flow making it feel less hot.




A few showers have popped up, but most of us are dry.  No rain means 90+ again.


Gosh, that front last week got us thinking summer was gone.   Not so fast!   Speaking of heat.  Today was a reunion with the last two people I was allowed to hire while being Chief Meteorologist at Ch. 8.



Chris Franklin & Kim Vaughn have birthdays this month, and we always celebrate at Drago's with those wonderful charred grilled oysters.  You can see why they call me the "little fella".   Very proud of these two who made me look better.  Enjoy your weekend as we work on getting our guests for future podcasts coming soon.  Stay tuned!
