Tropical Storm Rina Discussion Number   6
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL182023
500 PM AST Fri Sep 29 2023
 
Strong northwesterly shear has caused the low-level center of Rina 
to become completely exposed today. The overall convective structure 
of the storm has deteriorated as well, with only small bursts of 
deep convection observed in satellite images well downshear of its 
center. An earlier scatterometer pass did not sample the core of the 
system, but still showed 30-35 kt winds well removed from the center 
in the southeast quadrant. The latest objective and subjective 
satellite intensity estimates range from 30-45 kt, and the initial 
intensity is conservatively held at 40 kt this afternoon. A full 
scatterometer pass should be available this evening to better assess 
the current intensity of Rina.
 
The tropical cyclone has turned northwestward and is accelerating,
with an initial motion of 320/8 kt. This general motion with a
slight increase in forward speed is expected during couple of days
while Rina moves around the northeastern periphery of the broader
circulation associated with Tropical Storm Philippe. Thereafter, the
shallow cyclone is forecast to separate from Philippe and turn
north-northwestward between a subtropical ridge to the east and an
approaching frontal system over the western Atlantic. There is still
large spread in the track guidance regarding the extent and speed of
this turn, with the GFS still on the western edge of the guidance.
With this uncertainty in mind, the updated NHC forecast remains
close to the HCCA and TVCA consensus aids and lies near the center
of the guidance envelope.
 
The strong wind shear currently affecting Rina is unlikely to relent
during the next couple of days. So despite warm SSTs along its path,
Rina seems unlikely to sustain a more organized convective structure
going forward, which is consistent with simulated satellite imagery
from the global models. The NHC intensity forecast shows gradual
weakening during the next several days, following the latest
multi-model intensity consensus aids. By 96 h, Rina is forecast to
open into a trough and/or merge with a frontal system. But if the
center remains decoupled from the convection, it is possible that
Rina degenerates into a remnant low even sooner than forecast.

    It didn't take me long to finish rigging up the 120 with a new reel and 2.2mm dyneema line. Unfortunately as of now (Apr 2009), I haven't had an opportunity to get into the blue water to put this new toy through its paces. I am definitely jones'ing to give it a try! I am also working on making my own flashers for use in blue water. I have been watching these being used on a few spearfishing shows and their reasoning seems sound for their success. They didn't seem too hard to make, so I decided...

    Believe it or not my latest addition to my spearguns is not one for shooting fish (well at least not shooting to kill them). But it hopefully will help others watch online what I love to do underwater. I have made a camera mount for my Riffe Euro guns. This mount will fit on any Euro that has the reel inserts (basically all of them). It was terribly simple to make. The only fairly tricky part was putting together the actual mount screw for the camera tripod mount itself.

    After trying and being disappointed by the Omer Zero Cubed mask last year, I picked up a couple of other masks ( Mares Star and Sporasub Mystic ) that fit fairly well and did not disappoint, but were not the perfect fit I've been looking for in a low volume freediving mask so I didn't feel overly compelled to write a spearview about them. In defense of these masks, they are both low volume masks that are relatively inexpensive so for the money they are great purchases. Of these two, the...

    Over the winter I looked into and purchased a couple of sets of Reef Runner Gear's fin skins. I had contemplated having my own manufactured but when I came accross these, it just didn't seem worth the hassle. You can create your own custom design for a few bucks more and although you can run into some small snags when doing so (I'll elaborate later on), Jon from Reef Runner Gear is an awesome guy to work with and he will do everything he can to make things right.

    Throughout my relatively short history in spearfishing (as of this writing), I have only used a few different spearguns. Now obviously, my opinion in this matter is not one of extreme trial and error. Mostly it consists of recommendations made to me by those I spearfish with along with some of my own common sense. In the beginning (early 1990's), I used one of my brother-in-law's extra guns. Specifically, a 38" Arbalette. Now this gun had already seen finer days by the time I started using it....

    I finally bit the bullet and decided to sell my No-Ka-Oi. It had gotten next to no use in the time I had owned it and it seemed a shame to have it just sit there so I Ebay'd it. With the funds from that sale, I invested in a gun that is a little more multi-purpose (at least that is how I convinced myself to get it :). I was extremely torn among 3 choices. I was considering the Euro 120, 120x and 130. After a couple of weeks of deliberation and a lot of flip-flopping, I decided on the Euro 120....

    Winds: 0-5 Seas: Less than 1 foot Surf Temp: 87F Viz: 50-100 feet If I had to pick a weekend to be able to begin diving again, this was it (I figure somewhere around 70% of my hearing has returned)! There was literally no wind and minimal seas to deal with. The viz was absolutely incredible, as we were moving at 35 mph and spotting fish as we passed over different patch reefs. We had an incredible time of it. The only downside was an inadequacy in the headcount department. We limited out on...

We stayed out west on Friday because we thought we had our best chances for clean water. We don't exactly get an early start as has been our habit this past week. We get underway around 10a and head southwest. We stop off at #67 to find that the water still hasn't cleaned up this close to home yet. In addition to...

The last couple of weeks we were either busting our humps because we got to our spots too early (running into strong tides), or missed the boat altogether and still end up busting our humps in order to catch some fish in spite of missing the slack tide (this of course precludes the fact that we would still run offshore to some of our patch...

    Well it's hard to believe but another year is in the books. 2011 definitely passed in the blink of an eye. I guess it's true what they say... time does go by faster as you get older. I think it's yet another application of Einstein's theory of relativity. I believe that it goes by faster as you get older because the amount of time that passes is shorter relative to your age. When you were 10, a year was 1/10th of your life. At 50, it's a mere 1/50th so relatively speaking it's a hell of a lot...
