A few strong storms are possible along colliding sea breezes, generally along the I-95 corridor, late this afternoon and evening. When Thunder Roars, Go Indoors! 🏠🏃‍♀️💨🌩️ #flwx #gawx

#HurricaneErin became the Atlantic’s first #hurricane of the season and strengthened into a Category 5 storm just one day later—one of the fastest intensifications on record. Learn how NOAA satellites monitored and tracked #Erin in this week's #EarthFromOrbit video:

2p EDT Aug 22 - We are watching 2 areas behind Erin - the first is a system well SSE of Bermuda (#AL90) which is very likely to become a tropical storm this weekend. Interests in Bermuda should monitor for any watches/warnings. Over the central Atlantic, a short-lived tropical

Isolated strong/Severe Storms will focus along the I-95 and I-10 corridors this afternoon, lifting NE into SE Georgia through the late afternoon hours as seabreezes interact. Hazards: Winds 40-60 mph 🌬️ Frequent lightning ⚡ Locally Heavy rainfall 💧 JaxReady #flwx #gawx

Hurricane Erin moves northward near the East Coast in this satellite imagery over the last couple of days. As it pulls away to the east, Erin is undergoing extratropical transition.

8pm PDT 8/24: Tropical Depression #Ten-E is expected to strengthen to a tropical storm on Monday but will remain out to sea over the Pacific. See hurricanes.gov for more info.

11 am PDT Aug. 25: Besides TS #Juliette, we are monitoring two other disturbances for potential development, one in the central Pacific well south of the Hawaiian Islands, and one in the eastern Pacific well southwest of Mexico. Monitor hurricanes.gov for the latest.

8/28 2pm EDT: The tropics should remain quiet through the weekend. A tropical wave is forecast to emerge off of Africa on Sunday. It has a low (20%) chance of formation next week over the eastern Atlantic. More: hurricanes.gov

At this shadowy hour in 2023, Category 4 Hurricane Idalia reached her 130 mph, 942 mbar peak intensity in the saltwater cove of Florida’s Big Bend.

Aug. 30: We are keeping watch of a tropical wave that will move off the coast of Africa on Sunday. Some slow development of this system is possible while it moves across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic next week, and it currently has a low chance of becoming a tropical

Imagine if it was December

As we end August with a pumpkin spice feel in the east, September starts off focusing on this next disturbance coming off Africa. Slowwww development appears to be its calling card and any brush with the islands would be the following week at best. Not uncommon to see a spread

Fairly low-latitude wave emerging off africa currently. The general broadness and low amplitude of the wave structure could allow the disturbance to remain south in the near term, potentially avoiding the negative effects of the TUTT, at least initially. Its worth noting that a
