Gaston Tropical Storm Again!

Sorry to areas of lower southern Maryland and SE VA as this storm went further south and east than I thought. Spoke with my folks in Richmond who received around 8 inches of rain. They said this was devastating. Of note, Gaston never really lost its tropical look or feel. Strong circulation has even given it a Tropical Storm ranking again and that was almost before it hit the coast! (Hurricane Danny did the same thing in 1997) After this leaves, we will have a nice week. OK one more note on Frances. Looking like Florida will be the target. Sorry for my flip flopping, but I am almost certain Florida will be its landfall state. It will then ride up towards us so we will possibly see indirect effects of it around Labor Day. ===== Jimmy Chaplin of Mid Atlantic Weather. http://www.midatlanticweather.com * Get the Washington DC Weatherbook!
