Invests 90L and 99L have not become better organized today, but still likely to develop, Tropical Depression Eleven-E forms in East Pacific

Invests 90L and 99L over the Atlantic have not become any better organized today, but remain threats to develop into tropical cyclones over the next several days. In the Eastern Pacific, Invest 91E somewhat unexpectedly developed into Tropical Depression Eleven-E this morning, but is not expected to strengthen due to a hostile environment. Invest 99L likely to develop, but long-term future extremely uncertain Invest 99L has not become much better organized today as it struggles to consolidate due to its…

There are several areas to watch in the Northern Hemisphere tropics today, but the Atlantic and East Pacific both do not have a tropical cyclone active – the first occurrence of such event since July 7. In the Atlantic, a tropical wave has a chance to develop into the Atlantic’s next tropical cyclone, and could end up as a long-tracked storm. In the Eastern Pacific, Invest 91E has become slightly better organized today, but is not very likely to develop…

Invest 98L has a low chance to develop over Eastern Gulf of Mexico, Noru rapidly intensifies to Earth’s strongest tropical cyclone of 2017

Invest 98L has a low chance to develop over Eastern Gulf of Mexico, Noru rapidly intensifies to Earth’s strongest tropical cyclone of 2017

A well-defined area of low pressure located along a dissipating cold front in the Northeastern Gulf of Mexico was designated Invest 98L by the National Hurricane Center (NHC) Sunday morning. Aside from 98L, a tropical wave in the central tropical Atlantic is becoming less likely to develop due to dry air. In the Western Pacific, Typhoon Noru explosively intensified to Earth’s first category 5 tropical cyclone of 2017, but has since weakened slightly. In the Eastern Pacific, Hilary has now…

The global tropics remain active today, but little has changed since yesterday. Hurricane Hilary weakened to a tropical storm last night, and has changed little in strength today. Tropical Storm Irwin has also changed very little in strength. The eastern Atlantic disturbance was briefly designated Invest 97L last night, but was quickly dropped from the Tropical Weather Outlook after it failed to organize. Tropical Storms Hilary and Irwin still expected to merge early next week As of 2:00 p.m. PDT…

There are several areas to watch in the tropical Atlantic, Eastern Pacific, and Western Pacific today as the global tropics remain active. In the Eastern Pacific, Hurricane Hilary and Tropical Storm Irwin expected to begin Fujiwhara Interaction this weekend. The global models continue to indicate that the larger and stronger Hilary will be the dominant cyclone. In the Atlantic, an area of low pressure has formed from a tropical wave southwest of the Cape Verde Islands, and has a chance…

Twin hurricanes Hilary and Irwin in the Eastern Pacific expected to undergo Fujiwhara interaction, a system worth watching in the Atlantic

Twin hurricanes Hilary and Irwin in the Eastern Pacific expected to undergo Fujiwhara interaction, a system worth watching in the Atlantic

This week could get very interesting in the Eastern Pacific as Hurricanes Hilary and Irwin are expected to interact with each other in a rare phenomenon known as the Fujiwhara effect. Most global models indicate that Hilary, the stronger and larger storm, will be the dominant cyclone and Irwin is likely going to be absorbed into Hilary’s circulation. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Greg has weakened to a Tropical Depression and is expected to become a remnant low during the next day…

Two tropical depressions in the Eastern Pacific have strengthened into named tropical storms: Tropical Depression Nine-E has strengthened into Tropical Storm Hilary, and Tropical Depression Ten-E has strengthened into Tropical Storm Irwin. Hilary is likely to become a major hurricane, while Irwin also has a chance to become a hurricane. In the West Pacific, Tropical Storm Noru has strengthened into a typhoon, a category 2 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, making it the first typhoon of the 2017 season and…

While the Atlantic basin remains quiet, the Pacific has exploded with a total of seven tropical cyclones active this evening, although all are fairly weak. Two are in the Eastern Pacific: Tropical Storm Greg and Tropical Depression Nine-E. One is in the Central Pacific – Tropical Storm Fernanda, which was previously a powerful Category 4 hurricane last week. Four are in the Western Pacific: Tropical Storms Noru and Kulap as well as Tropical Depressions 08W and 10W. A possible eighth…

After Tropical Storm Don opened up into a tropical wave late Tuesday night, the Atlantic basin has gone quiet. Invest 96L is no longer expected to develop into a tropical cyclone and has been removed from the National Hurricane Center’s Tropical Weather Outlook. Another quiet period looks likely in the Atlantic basin, perhaps for as long as a few weeks. On the flip side, the Eastern Pacific remains very active, with three active tropical cyclones and two other systems that…

Rare event for July: Four simultaneous tropical cyclones in Atlantic and East Pacific

Rare event for July: Four simultaneous tropical cyclones in Atlantic and East Pacific

Comments 0 Comment

On Tuesday, a rare event occurred for the earliest time since 1997: four tropical cyclones were simultaneously active in the National Hurricane Center’s area of responsibility (Atlantic and East Pacific). Hurricane Fernanda, Tropical Storm Greg, Tropical Depression Eight-E, and Tropical Storm Don were all simultaneously active Tuesday afternoon, but Tropical Storm Don has likely degenerated into an open tropical wave. The three East Pacific storms should not be a threat to land. Tropical Storm Don likely now an open wave…
