    How long do these storms usually last? is it wise to postpone Nov 2 vacation?

    How long is your reach Captaind? I'm arriving for a short stint on the 10th. If I'm not too tired (I'm leaving for the airport at 3:00 AM), I plan on making it to the Seastar concert/webcast that night. (and the One Love Bus Pub Crawl on the 14th)

    Tropical storm sandy discussion number 2
    nws national hurricane center miami fl al182012
    500 pm edt mon oct 22 2012

    the air force hurricane hunters found a band of surface winds near
    35 kt over the southeastern quadrant of the cyclone...so the system
    is being named at this time. The environment should be
    characterized by weak shear...and the storm will be over warm
    waters...for the next couple of days so additional strengthening is
    likely. The official intensity forecast is similar to the previous
    forecast and close to the model consensus. This could be
    conservative...however...as the rapid intensification index shows a
    significant possibility of rapid strengthening during the next day
    or so.

    Aircraft observations show that the central region of the storm is
    characterized by a fairly flat pressure field...but the center
    appears to be located somewhat to the south of the previous
    estimates. However...little overall motion appears to have taken
    place this afternoon. Global models predict that the
    mid-tropospheric ridge to the north of sandy will gradually weaken
    within the next day or so...which should allow the tropical cyclone
    to begin moving north to north-northeastward soon. The official
    track forecast is somewhat to the west of the model consensus but
    not as far west as the latest ecmwf forecast. This is only a
    little to the west of the previous official forecast track.

    If this holds it's good for Jamaica. The 48 hr prog puts it to the East . The Island will be on the lee side.
