The system which NHC had a 10% chance of development off the SE coast has all but fell apart. Here was this morning. Now. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] NHC this morning. TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL 200 AM EDT MON JUL 7 2014 For the North Atlantic…Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: […]
Arthur has lost tropical characteristics as he speeds NNE, currently positioned over the Gulf of St Lawrence. Arthur not only produced hurricane conditions over North Carolina’s Outer Banks but arguably, the system, deep in it’s transition phase brought damaging winds as well as flooding rain to the Canadian Maritimes. The latest visible satellite imagery from space faintly shows what’s left […]
Hurricane Arthur continues to batter North Carolina’s Outer banks after making landfall between Cape Lookout and Beaufort around 11.15pm ET with winds of 100 mph. The current infrared imagery below shows the eye of Category 2 Arthur over the Pamlico Sound which separates the mainland from the Outer Banks. Wind Gusts so far: 101 mph Cape Lookout, […]
Unfortunately I was unable to post on Arthur yesterday. Was on the road and didn’t get home till 4.30am this morning. Signal in the Scottish Highlands wasn’t strong enough for my phone never mind laptop. Managed to grab a couple of hours sleep, albeit broken since I’ve a 6 month old, haha but anyway, within […]
There’s a lot going on weatherwise across the US right now with a potential hurricane landfall coming up as well as the dangerous heat across a broad area. I will be on the road pretty much the rest of today but will try to post on the very latest with Arthur. It’s all dependant upon how […]
Unsurprisingly, we awaken this morning to newly formed Tropical Depression One, soon become Arthur. Current water vapour across the Atlantic. TD 1 clearly noticeable off Florida. Though it may only be July 1 but waters are bathtub warm already beneath and in the projected path of Arthur to be. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] The system is experiencing a […]
While heat bookends the US with an unusually cool pocket in between, it’s all eyes on 91L off the Florida coast for development of this years first tropical cyclone. The latest visible satellite image shows a good low level circulation as seen by NOAA reconnaissance aircraft. However, note all the convection is restricted to the southern side […]
The strongest upper ridge to date is now building into the Southwest US and will present the warmest temps so far. Here’s how the upper air pattern looks over the US at 72 hours. Note while there’s the big Western ridge, there’s a deep trough and cold pool over the N Plains. This will hold […]
While we see some pre 4th of July heat and humidity surge into the East this weekend and early next week, the real heat will remain draped across the Southern Tier just where you’d expect it at this time of year. This heat will try lifting north but systems pushing into the Pacific Northwest and […]
The highly progressive pattern with plentiful rain from the Rockies east will continue. Systems pushing into the Pacific Northwest will trim back any heat and humidity from hitting and holding across the central and northern US. Here’s the QPF rains through the next 7 days. Is model seeing mischief near Florida in the 7-10 day? […]
