Time to start paying attention

1. Satellite imagery and surface observations indicate that a broad
area of low pressure is forming over the Bay of Campeche.
Environmental conditions appear conducive for additional gradual
development, and a tropical depression or tropical storm is likely
to form by midweek while it moves slowly westward or
west-northwestward toward the western Gulf coast.

Regardless of development, several days of heavy rainfall are
expected across portions of southern Mexico and Central America, and
these rains are likely to cause life-threatening flooding and flash
flooding. Locally heavy rainfall is also expected to spread over
portions of the northwestern coast of the Gulf of Mexico by the
middle of the week. In addition, gale warnings have been issued for
portions of the Gulf of Mexico, and more information on those
warnings is available in High Seas Forecasts issued by the National
Weather Service. Interests along the western and northwestern Gulf
coasts should monitor the progress of this system. An Air Force
Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate the
system later today.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...70 percent.

2. Southwestern Atlantic Ocean:
An area of cloudiness and thunderstorms located several hundred
miles east of the Bahamas is associated with a surface trough and
an upper-level area of low pressure. Environmental conditions
could be conducive for some development of this system during the
next few days while it moves westward or west-northwestward. The
system is forecast to approach the coast of the southeast United
States on Thursday or Friday.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.

1. The Atlantic and Gulf region looks mighty busy.

But then of course, Gov. Dipshit in Florida has stated that "climate change" is illegal to be spoken about weather changes as his state becomes even more inundated with rain, causing possible Billions in damages. Who will his hand to be out to? The Federal Government agencies he despises.

3. Between my daughter and her family in Florida, you and your family in Jamaica, my mom and sister ...

... in Houston, I am paying close attention.

4. Thanks for posting this. We could use some rain

here in coastal South Carolina. We’ve had above average temps for June and the ocean temp is 83 F.

5. Indiana is having August temperatures in June.

[Mr.WeRP]

10. So is most of the country east of Indiana

[Emile]

15. and it's not even summer yet.

6. Global warming & climate change is a hugely Democratic hoax!

Will we ever be able to get reQublicans to pay attention to climate scientists?

7. The Climat deniers call it a "Democrat hoax".

But I do get your gist.

They are a silly lot. But when it comes time when they lose everything to a massive tornado or Hurricane, they might think differently when the Home Owner's Insurance Company says..."You're on your own!" As is the case in many states where weather plays a role in where people live.

8. For people with "Hurricane Anxiety" (meaning me), Tropical Tidbits is an excellent site.

You can see two weeks out on the GFS and European models. Right now it's looking like a minimum strength system at most 35-45mph. Locally, we are sort of welcoming it as we are about to enter Stage 3 water restrictions as our combined lake levels are 25%.

9. Beach water temp here is 87, which is a couple of degrees warmer, a month or two sooner, than my memories of it

Mid Gulf of Mexico water temp is 85, also a little warmer, sooner.

14. I'm a fan of cyclocane.com.

It's become my go-site.

16. Thanks for that. Can't have too many resources. I also like Spaghettimodels.com

[malaise]

18. Agree

11. Just got in from a 4 mile jog on while it

was only 85. I kind of like it warm. 😎

[SARose]

12. Rain please

San Antonio forecast 80 deg Wed/Thurs 70 percent chance of rain. 🤞

[TBF]

13. Coastal TX getting hit too -

San Antonio area today apparently, and then up towards Galveston so we're expecting heavy rain Tues/Wed. Should be ok here as long as the rural areas don't flood too bad. We are not the area that was hit by the previous storms this spring. Stay safe in FL!

17. There have been so many dire warnings but Republicans remain unmoved.

I'm convinced Florida will be declared uninhabitable before too long.
