While much of the attention is on Tropical Storm Isaac in the Gulf of Mexico, half way around the world and the tropics are every bit as busy if not busier over the Western Pacific. Twin Typhoons Tembin which struck Taiwan a few days ago is ready to strike the island for a second time […]
Tired of all this wet weather? Yes, I know I certainly am. Ireland and Northern Ireland as well as the Northwest and far north of Scotland has seen a very windy spell over the past 12 to 18 hours thanks to a deep low nearest you. Elsewhere, while breezy, the main story has really been […]

While we fear the wind and storm surge aspect from Isaac over Southeast Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, there is also a very concerning trend on models. Models have this system near stalling just inland with little movement from an early Wednesday landfall through Friday with the center merely covering a distance of 50-100 miles inland from the […]
Since retiring for the night and getting up this morning, there has been little change in Isaac. Max sustained winds remain at 65 mph with pressure slightly lower at 990. However, recent sat images has showed a more healthy looking system with a more concentric look with blow up of deep convection and even what could appear […]
While the outer bands of Isaac have been sweeping up through South and even Central Florida throughout today with wind gusts to 60 mph across Miami along with torrential downpours, the centre of circulation is just about on Key West. Pressure is now at 994mb so it’s barely strengthening though it’s highly likely that over […]
Following a wet and very showery day for many yesterday., today was much better with less wind in the south and less showers thanks to a small bubble of high pressure which seperates the lows. While yesterday low pushes across the North Sea towards southern Scandi, another low which is much stronger will spread our […]
Florida Keys: Don’t be caught out my last minute rapid intensification! If you looked at my forecast track issued late last night (below) and then have a look at the new NHC track issued this morning (above), their near identical. This track which takes Isaac through the very deep warm waters of the Florida Straits is […]

The overnight shift west means that there is greater risk of a potentially major hurricane […]
