Today is June 1, the official start date of the Atlantic hurricane season. As has been the case every year since 2015, a pre-season named storm has already developed – Tropical Storm Ana, which developed northeast of Bermuda in late May and had very minimal impact. While there are currently no active tropical cyclones or disturbances in the Atlantic, Tropical Storm Blanca is active over the eastern Pacific, but poses no threat to land and is likely to weaken soon….

The 2021 Atlantic hurricane season officially begins a week from today, June 1. However, we have already seen one named storm form: Tropical Storm Ana, which formed northeast of Bermuda on Saturday and became a remnant low late Sunday night. Ana’s formation marked the seventh straight year with a pre-season named storm in the Atlantic basin. While tropical cyclogenesis appears unlikely for at least the next 7-10 days in the Atlantic basin, Cyclonic Fury is forecasting yet another above-average Atlantic…

On Saturday morning, the non-tropical area low pressure area located northeast of Bermuda acquired subtropical characteristics and sufficient deep convection to be classified as Subtropical Storm Ana, making 2021 the seventh straight year in which a pre-season named storm developed. Ana is moving away from Bermuda, is already weakening and is likely to become a remnant low on Sunday. As of 5:00 p.m. EDT, Subtropical Storm Ana was centered near 34.5°N 62.4°W, and was moving northeastward at about 5 mph….

There continues to be two “Invests” – short for Area of Investigation – being monitored by the National Hurricane Center for potential tropical or subtropical development. Invest 90L is located northeast of Bermuda, and Invest 91L is located over the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. Both of the systems have developed well-defined circulation centers, but lack sufficient organized deep convection as of this time. It appears likely that the Atlantic will have at least one subtropical or tropical cyclone develop prior…

After a recent increase in tropical and subtropical activity in the month of May, the National Hurricane Center announced in February its plans to issue routine Tropical Weather Outlooks starting on May 15 in 2021. It appears to have been the right decision. There are now two areas of interest being monitored by the National Hurricane Center for potential development: Invest 90L in the western Atlantic, which has a high chance of development, and Invest 91L in the Gulf of…

The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active Atlantic hurricane season on record in terms of named storms, featuring a record-breaking 30 named storms, 13 hurricanes, and 6 major hurricanes pending remaining reanalysis. The season exhausted the conventional naming list, requiring usage of the Greek Alphabet for the second time. Since two Greek Alphabet names were retired, Eta and Iota, they could not be replaced in the current system. The names Dorian from 2019 and Laura from 2020 were…
