Good Afternoon,Today's update briefly discusses Hurricane Katia which is a Category 1 hurricane and is moving north between Bermuda and the U.S. Katia is no threat to any landmass at this time and should continue her re-curve back into the open Atlantic, Tropical Storm Maria has weakened significantly since yesterday partly due to shear and also partly due to her fast forward speed of 20 to 22 knots. Her center is completely exposed and devoid of convection. A downgrade is possible today after t...

Good Morning, Hurricane Katia is currently located southwest of Bermuda moving to the northwest at 9 MPH. Katia is a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir Simpson Wind Scale with maximum sustained winds of 85 MPH. Katia is currently slowing down to make her northward turn between the Outer Banks of North Carolina and the island of Bermuda. Bermuda as well as the eastern seaboard could experience gusty winds, large swells, and rip currents. Other than this the impacts to any land areas should be m...

Good Afternoon, In today's update we will analyze Hurricane Katia which is currently a Category 3 hurricane with sustained winds of 115 MPH. Katia is moving to the northwest at about 9 MPH and should start to move in a more northerly direction over the next couple of days. Thereafter she is expected to turn more to the northeast and re-curve between the Outer Banks of North Carolina and Bermuda. Her impacts should be limited to gusty winds, a few outer band squalls and higher than normal surf a...

Good Afternoon,Today's update discusses Hurricane Katia and her potential track close to the east coast of the U.S. I also discuss newly designated Invest 95L located southwest of the Cape Verde Islands. Lastly, there are indications of homegrown tropical trouble in the Bay of Campeche west of the Yucatan Peninsula in the next 3 to 5 days from the remnants of Lee interacting with a cut-off frontal system in the Gulf of Mexico. Thanks for stopping by!!   Thanks, Jeremy Xtreme We...

Good Morning, Quick update on TS Lee located 100 miles south of Lafayette, La. Lee has sustained winds of 60 MPH and should make landfall just west of the Achafalaya Bay later this afternoon. Thereafter Lee is forecast to move slowly northward into central Louisiana before turning more to the northeast in 3 to 4 days. Currently SE Texas is receiving light to moderate rainfall and gusty northeast winds from Lee!! Thanks for stopping by!!...

Good Afternoon,Tropical Storm Lee formed this afternoon from Depression #13. As of 1 PM Lee had sustained winds of 40 MPH with higher gusts. Lee is currently wobbling to the northwest at 4 MPH. Steering currents should remain relatively light over the next couple of days and Lee should slowly meander to the north or northwest and finally make landfall on the coast of Louisiana somewhere between Lake Charles and Morgan City although my confidence in this forecast is low at best. The models are st...

  Good Afternoon,Over the next several days we will be watching for development of Tropical Storm Lee in the NW Gulf of Mexico. An old frontal boundary combined with a tropical wave moving northwest out of the Caribbean should combine to form low pressure in the Central Gulf of Mexico. All indications are at this time that the low will move northwestward toward the upper Texas coastline and stall for a couple of days as steering currents are forecast to remain weak. Any stalling or meandering s...

Good Afternoon, We are monitoring TD #12 in the far eastern Atlantic just southwest of the Cape Verde Islands. TD #12 is forecast to become Tropical Storm Katia in the next 24 to 36 hours. After a trek across the Atlantic in a west-northwesterly fashion TD # 12 could possible again threaten the SE U.S. Models vary on eventual track with some re-curving east of Bermuda. We also have some homegrown tropical trouble to discuss. An area of disturbed weather coupled with a trough split could d...

Good Morning,Hurricane Irene has made landfall this morning near Morehead City, NC as a Category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 90 MPH with higher gusts. Irene is bringing flooding rain, heavy winds, and storm surge to parts of North Carolina. Irene is forecast to move off to the north-northeast over the next 24 hours emerging over water near Virginia Beach, Virginia. Irene will then head northeast raking the New Jersey shore and making a second landfall near Long Island around 8 A.M. Sunda...

Good Morning,Hurricane Irene has weakened slightly over the past 12 hours now with sustained winds of 105 MPH with gusts to 125 MPH. Irene is forecast to make landfall on the outer banks of North Carolina as a powerful Category 2 Hurricane. I believe some strengthening is possible if Irene can complete her eye wall and mix out some of the dry air that has  been entrained in the system from the Continental U.S. After landfall in North Carolina Irene is forecast to once again emerge over water nea...

Good Morning, Today's update discusses Hurricane Irene which is a Category 3 on the Saffir Simpson Scale. Irene is currently bashing the northern Bahamas with heavy rain and fierce winds. Irene has made the turn more to the north-northwest over the last several hours. She should continue in a northerly direction while continuing to strengthen as she makes her approach to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Thereafter she is forecasted to make landfall once again in the New England states ...
