Here we go again. We are currently in the depths of cyclone season. Here we have tropical cyclone Wilma. She, like most cyclones that come around Samoa, has been changing her mind regarding where to go. She was forecasted to make a smooth arc to the south below us but changed yesterday afternoon to go above us. Here is the current forecast.
Yup, Wilma should be passing almost right over us Jan 23 at 06:00 Zulu. Let's see... carry the one, correct for time zone, backpedal a bit and that's 19:00 American Samoa time Jan 22. That's this evening. Well, we can only hope the forecast holds for 50 knot winds and gusts to 70 knots. That won't be too bad. As for now, it looks like a calm and normal day and we're having pancakes for breakfast.
