tropical

This is the most tropical activity we have seen so far this year. To this point  mother nature has spared us ... unless you have vacationed in Cancun at the wrong time this year.

The tropics have been very busy lately. The good news is that no storms have threatened the U.S. Coastline. Let's hope that does not change.

We wake up on a Saturday Morning to a tropical weather map dotted with four areas of disturbed weather. One of them looks like it develop further in the next week.

Saturday we had no tropical waves in the Atlantic or gulf. This morning we have two and one has a decent chance of development. Here are the details

The first of these tropical waves is out in the Atlantic  (about 450 miles east of the Lesser Antilles). The other one is just moving off the coast of Africa..

Here we are headed into the Labor Day weekend and it looks to be Tropical Weather free for us. There is a system of disturbed weather moving over Florida though.

The Southern Bay of Campeche is looking anything but "peachy" this morning. A low pressure system coming off the Yucatan Peninsula could develop. It is certainly that time of year.

The disturbance that we watched cross the Yucatan Peninsula earlier this week has dissipated. Advisories have been discontinued. Tropical Storm Erin is expected to do the same in the middle of the Atlantic;but Mother Nature is brewing another.

We are headed into the worst part of the Hurricane Season and are so far unscathed. Here is the latest on both of these systems.

What a difference a day can make in the life of a tropical weather system. Yesterday the forecast showed Dorian gaining strength as a tropical storm and closing in on Cuba by Wednesday. Today's forecast shows the system dying before it can even get that far.

You know how it works. Everyday we watch the storms path extended eastward. As the path is extended we learn more about the storms destination. The last extension on Dorian shows the storm could impact the gulf.

Tropical Depression Sixteen is Southeast of Florida and an area of disturbed weather is sitting off the coast of South America. Could either affect us?
