Good evening and I hope all Americans enjoyed your Labor Day weekend. I’m sure for many or most of you, it’s back to business as usual. I posted just last night about the ‘potential’ implications later down the road to a more conducive tropical Atlantic, a better African wave train and the evolving pattern over North […]
The tropics overall remain quiet and there I no immediate threat from any system out there at this time. We currently have a system bringing heavy downpours, gusty winds to the Yucatan and this feature will drift west into the Bay of Campeche tomorrow. The NHC gives this a low chance of development (20%) and will likely push […]
As we approach July, one must start watching the tropical Atlantic as the MJO index looks set to enter increasingly more favourable octants. While the GFS is going through phase 1, the ECMWF clearly shows it entering phase 2 and that’s prime time for western Atlantic development over the next couple of weeks. Quite often when the […]
After a few hours sleep, I awaken to a named storm out in the Gulf and that name is Andrea! Though now a named system and while it will present fairly widespread gale-force winds with a smaller area of storm-force winds, little has changed in my overall thinking on this system. It’s heading into the Big Bend […]

True summer heat is now in place over the Southwest after a coolish spring with […]

Firstly, here’s the current global SST’s as […]
