Eugene rapidly weakening, Tropical Depression Four still could regenerate, decreasing chance of tropical wave developing

Comments 2 comments

Hurricane Eugene in the East Pacific has rapidly weakened today as it has entered a more stable environment with decreasing sea surface temperatures, and is likely going to be downgraded to a tropical storm at the next advisory. In the Atlantic, the remnants of Tropical Depression Four are continuing to be monitored for possible regeneration, and there is still a low, but decreasing, chance that a tropical wave could develop east of the Lesser Antilles. There is now also a…

Eugene becomes Northern Hemisphere’s first major hurricane of 2017, NHC highlights African wave for possible development

Sunday morning, Hurricane Eugene rapidly intensified to the first major (category 3+) hurricane of not only the 2017 Pacific hurricane season, but the first of the year in all of the Northern Hemisphere. However, Eugene has almost certainly peaked in intensity, and a weakening trend has likely already begun. Meanwhile, in the Atlantic, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) has mentioned a tropical wave in its tropical weather outlook that could develop by late this week as it approaches the Lesser…

Tropical Storm Eugene is very close to becoming the second hurricane of the 2017 Pacific hurricane season. In the Atlantic, the remnants of Tropical Depression Four have a low chance of regenerating into a tropical cyclone, and a tropical wave exiting the coast of Africa will need to be watched for development late next week when it is expected to be near the Lesser Antilles. Eugene expected to be upgraded to a hurricane, could peak at category 2 status Tropical…

The short life of Tropical Depression Four came to an end Friday afternoon when the National Hurricane Center (NHC) designated it a remnant low. On the flip side, Invest 95E in the East Pacific has been upgraded to Tropical Storm Eugene, the fifth named storm of the 2017 Pacific hurricane season. After Tropical Depression Four, another African tropical wave has a chance to develop by late next week near the Lesser Antilles. Dry air ends the life of Tropical Depression…

The tropics continue to remain active in both the Atlantic and Pacific. Tropical Depression Four formed yesterday in the Atlantic, but is likely to be downgraded to a remnant low soon, possibly even this evening. In the East Pacific, Invest 95E has a high chance of developing into a tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours. Looking ahead, both the GFS and some ECMWF runs have indicated the possibility of yet another African tropical wave to develop east of the…

Tropical Depression Four forms over tropical Atlantic 

Tropical Depression Four forms over tropical Atlantic 

Comments 0 Comment

Tropical Depression Four has formed over the tropical Atlantic. The depression was centered near 12.8°N 38.4°W. Maximum sustained winds were estimated at 25 knots (30 mph), with an estimated minimum pressure of 1009 mb. Four is expected to strengthen slightly as it moves west-northwestward through the tropical Atlantic, but the National Hurricane Center (NHC) currently does not expect that the depression will strengthen into a tropical storm. Increasing wind shear and dry air will likely limit intensification, and the official NHC…

Invest 94L – a broad area of low pressure located about 800 miles west-southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands – has a window of developing into a tropical depression during the next couple of days before conditions become less favorable. At 8:00 p.m. Tuesday, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) gave 94L a 70 percent chance of development within 48 hours and an 80 percent chance of development within five days. 94L has been moving very slowly westward today. As of…

Invest 94L – a broad area of low pressure located about 650 miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands – is likely to develop into a tropical cyclone later this week as it moves west-northwestward across the tropical Atlantic at about 5-10 mph. In the Eastern Pacific, three systems (including Invest 94E) have a chance of development this week as well. In the West Pacific, Severe Tropical Storm Nanmadol could pose a threat to Japan tomorrow. Invest 94L: Likely to…

The Northern Hemisphere tropics are beginning to get active as they typically do in July. The Atlantic, East Pacific and West Pacific all have areas to watch this week. In the Atlantic, a tropical wave is located southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands and is being monitored for gradual development. In the East Pacific, there is potential for two tropical cyclones to form with Invest 94E and another tropical wave. In the West Pacific, Tropical Storm Nanmadol has formed in…
