I've added the Meteosat Third Generation Imager 1 satellite, with images every 10 minutes and higher resolution data in line with Himawari-9 and the GOES satellites. Will be very useful this upcoming season to monitor tropical waves and watch disturbances in the eastern Atlantic!

Despite the persisting cold anomalies near the dateline, I would say that the ongoing La Niña event has come to a conclusion. The SSTs in the tropical Pacific are far more consistent with a strong -PMM signature projecting onto the ENSO regions than a true La Niña right now.

Dennis Moos lives in Grinnell, Kansas. He says he was watching #KAKEnews weather coverage on Sunday and saw that Jay Prater, CBM KAKE was pointing to his town. He opened his front door to this. 🌪😨 #KAKEnews #KSwx #Grinnell #GoveCounty #Kansas #tornado

#Erick has started its RI phase as it approaches the Oaxaca and Guerrero coastline. Multiple violent VHTs have raced around its nascent eye and are building a menacing CDO. NHC estimates 55KT/65mph winds but this is likely at least 15KT too low. Strong major hurricane coming.

The western Mediterranean Sea is absurdly warm at the moment, with nearly half of the basin exhibiting SST anomalies greater than +3°C. A buoy near the island of Mallorca, Spain reported a water temperature of 31°C earlier today. This is bonkers for this time of year.

Typhoon #Danas is now making landfall near Tainan, Taiwan Island, explosive pressure drop was recorded at a crazy rate of 23mb/1hr, max sustained winds so far was 80kt with gusts over 106kt.#Danas is prob becoming the strongest Typhoon in Tainan city over 100 years.

Newest recon pass into #Hurricane #Erin's formative eye shows that the EXTR pressure has dropped to 993.6mb. That is about 2mb lower than the previous pass from this plane (AF308) about 1h 10min ago (995.7mb prev. pass). #Erin is deepening.

Early morning recon confirms that #Erin is undergoing rapid intensification and is now a major hurricane with winds of ~125 mph. The extrapolated pressure has cratered to 947mb.

Incredible intensification from #Erin during the past 24h. The latest recon pass found winds supporting at least 110KT/125mph with an extr pressure of ~947mb, around 50mb lower than yesterday (and about 55KT stronger!).

Sunrise on Category 4 #Erin. Absolutely incredible appearance for an August storm. Even more so considering its position northeast of the Leeward Islands.

Holy cow! Drifting buoy "7810602" measuring a 900.3 mb MSLP right at the center of Supertyphoon #Ragasa (#NandoPH) as of 08Z! This has gotta be the lowest pressure ever recorded by a buoy in a TC!

The NHC has just revised the 06z ATCF estimate for #Humberto up to 65KT/75mph - the third hurricane of this year's hurricane season. While this revision is an improvement over the previous 55KT estimate, it might still be conservative when looking at IR imagery.
