Bezoek Hr. Ms. Tromp
15 juli 2012
Het fregat Hr. Ms. Tromp komt binnenkort naar San Juan.
De leden van de Dutch Club hebben inmiddels een per email een uitnodiging voor een receptie aan boord van het schip ontvangen.
Dear members of the Dutch community in PR,
This Sunday, July 1 2012 at 2.30 pm a mass will be celebrated for Stefano Steenbakkers at the San Juan Bosco church in the Canteras neighborhood of San Juan.
For those who want to offer their condolences to the family and personally say farewell to Stefano, his body will be at the Ehret funeral home Saturday
from 12 noon till 9pm.
On Monday his remains will be cremated.
Thank you all for being so supportive to Eric and Zorimar with your Facebook comments and emails, I will relay them to him .
Best Regards,
Robbert van Hartingsveldt
Dear members of the Dutch community in Puerto Rico,
Last night I was informed by my dear friend Eric Steenbakkers that his son Stefano had been officially declared dead at 4pm Wednesday due to the extend of the brain damage inflicted by the bullet to the head he received during a carjacking attempt this past Sunday in Dorado.
On behalf of all of us I expressed our deep sympathy with him and his family.
Stefano will be kept on the life support system in his room at the University Pediatric Hospital to preserve his organs, which, according to his (and his
parents') wishes will be donated to persons in need.
While writing this message I realize how unfair (and unpredictable) life can be sometimes; That the most giving, innocent, talented and promising young person
we know can be taken away by a stupid random act of violence on a Sunday night on the island we call home.
With great sadness,
Robbert -Jan van Hartingsveldt

EK Voetbal 2012
Het nieuwe bestuur van de Dutch Club (Chris Lakens, Miriam Lauers, Rob Köhler en Michel Notten) heeft de club weer leven ingeblazen.
Ter gelegenheid van het EK voetbal waren er perfect georganiseerde viewing parties met tosties en koffie, bier en bitterballen en een groot scherm.
Jammer dat het Nederlands elftal er dit jaar niet veel van maakte..
Foto's van de parties zijn te bekijken in het foto album.
Speciale dank gaat aan het Sheraton hotel en Heineken!

TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
800 PM EDT SAT SEP 24 2016
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Karl, located east-northeast of Bermuda, and on recently
downgraded again Tropical Depression Lisa, located over the eastern
tropical Atlantic.
A tropical wave, accompanied by a broad area of low pressure, is
located several hundred miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands.
This disturbance is expected to move rapidly westward across the
tropical Atlantic Ocean at 20 to 25 mph for the next several days.
Environmental conditions are expected to become conducive for
gradual development as the system moves into the western tropical
Atlantic early next week, and a tropical depression could form
while the system approaches the Lesser Antilles and moves into the
Caribbean Sea by the middle of next week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent

DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Karl was
located near latitude 33.6 North, longitude 61.1 West. Karl is
moving toward the east-northeast near 23 mph (37 km/h). An
east-northeastward to northeastward motion at a faster forward
speed is expected tonight and Sunday.
Maximum sustained winds are near 65 mph (100 km/h) with higher
gusts. Some strengthening is forecast during the next 48 hours,
and Karl is expected to be at hurricane intensity when it becomes a
post-tropical cyclone on Sunday. The post-tropical cyclone will be
absorbed by a large extratropical low Sunday night.
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km)
from the center.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 994 mb (29.36 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF: Swells generated by Karl will continue affecting Bermuda
through tonight. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening
surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your
local weather office.

TROPICAL STORM KARL DISCUSSION NUMBER 42
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL122016
500 PM AST SAT SEP 24 2016
The convective pattern of Karl has become less organized today and
currently resembles a shear pattern, which isn't surprising given
the 35 kt of southwesterly shear analyzed over Karl by UW-CIMSS. A
GPM overpass from earlier today showed that the inner-core structure
of the cyclone had degraded, and this was also noted by the last
aircraft flight this morning. The initial intensity remains 55 kt
based on the latest Dvorak Data-T numbers of T3.5/55 kt from TAFB
and SAB. A NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft is en route to sample
Karl and provide more data on its current intensity and structure.
Karl is expected to strengthen during the next 12 to 24 hours, but
much of this will be due to baroclinic effects as the cyclone will
be under very high shear and moving over cooler SSTs. The NHC
forecast shows Karl reaching 70 kt at 24 h as a post-tropical
cyclone based on the GFS and ECMWF guidance. Karl should be
absorbed by a larger extratropical low over the north Atlantic by 36
h, as indicated by global model fields.
The initial motion estimate is 055/20. Karl should continue to
accelerate on an east-northeastward to northeastward heading ahead
of a broad deep-layer trough until the cyclone is absorbed, and the
forward speed is expected to be near 50 kt by 24 hours. The new
NHC track forecast is an update of the previous one and remains near
the middle of the tightly packed guidance envelope.

TROPICAL DEPRESSION LISA DISCUSSION NUMBER 21

500 PM AST SAT SEP 24 2016
Lisa has been devoid of thunderstorm activity since the convective
burst dissipated shortly after 1200 UTC. Assuming some additional
spin down since the ASCAT pass this morning, the initial wind speed
is lowered to 30 kt, making Lisa a tropical depression again.
Meteosat dust product images from the GOES-R Proving Ground indicate
that a plume of Saharan dust is approaching Lisa from the east. This
dry air combined with westerly shear should cause the depression to
degenerate to a remnant low by tonight and continue weakening during
the next day or two. The global models are in fair agreement in
showing the low opening into a trough in 36 to 48 hours before it
gets absorbed by a cold front.
Lisa is moving northwestward at 10 kt. A gradual turn to the north
is expected during the next day or two while the high pressure
system to the north of Lisa shifts eastward. The NHC track forecast
is slightly to the left of the previous one, and is in best
agreement with the various consensus aids.
