The National Hurricane Center has increased the odds of development of the disorganized tropical disturbance off the coast of Africa to the medium range. But it's going to be a slow process. The steering currents are weak across the tropical belt, so it's going to take at least a week until the system reaches the general vicinity of the Caribbean islands. The atmospheric conditions are only moderately conducive for development between the Caribbean and Africa, but it doesn't take much for a ...| Hurricane Intel

A hostile pall is descending over the tropics, which should limit any significant development for the next week or two or so. Dust and dry air, an unsupportive upper-wind regime, and higher than normal air pressure over the tropical belt should limit development between Africa and the Caribbean. The National Hurricane Center is painting a low-probability potential development area for a disturbance forecast to move off the African coast late in the weekend. It’s going to have tough sleddin...| Hurricane Intel

August 25 was a Thursday in 2005. Just two days before, new Tropical Depression Twelve had formed over the Bahamas. From the get-go, it was predicted to track towards South Florida. The forecast turned out to be excellent, although the storm strengthened a little more than expected. Hurricane Katrina made its first landfall near Hollywood, Florida – just north of the Miami-Dade/Broward County line – at about 6:00 PM ET 20 years ago today. The storm was lopsided, tilted by somewhat hosti...| Hurricane Intel

Giant Hurricane Erin is moving away from land and its effect on the ocean along the East Coast is slowly diminishing. Miraculously, the storm will head out to sea having done little more than brush land areas. The storm's top winds are decreasing and it's accelerating away from land. Erin is forecast to become non-tropical tomorrow and turn into a massive North Atlantic storm. Gusty winds will brush Atlantic Canada as Erin goes by, and the system looks likely to bring bad weather to the UK o...| Hurricane Intel
Hurricane Erin is slowly pulling away from North Carolina. Winds are gusty and tides are elevated, but the worst of the storm stayed right offshore. We’ll still have impacts spreading north all the way to New England, however – whatever happens will peak at the time of high tide along the Northeast coast. Until Erin accelerates out to sea tonight, the large diameter storm is putting a tremendous amount of energy into the ocean that will show up at the beaches and waterways along the East...| Hurricane Intel
Even though Hurricane Erin's top winds are not as intense as they once were, the storm has grown in size so its impacts will spread over a wider area. The atmosphere ahead of Erin looks to be reasonably conducive for intensification, so the National Hurricane Center is forecasting the top winds to increase slightly to the top end of the Category 2 range. The central pressure is already dropping, so the intensification process seems to already be underway. Although in a giant storm, the proce...| Hurricane Intel
Hurricane Erin is intensifying again. Now back up to Category 4. And the storm is growing in size. Outer bands are lashing the Caribbean...| Hurricane Intel
The tropical disturbance in the far eastern Atlantic has lost most of its moisture, and the going is going to stay rough. The steering flow is going to bend its track to the north where the air is very dry, the pressure is high, and the upper winds are hostile. The system is likely to continue to lose moisture. There are actually two disturbances in a strung-out area of disturbed weather off the African coast. They are forecast to merge today and tomorrow with what's left of their moisture a...| Hurricane Intel

We have a special LIVE streaming Hurricane HQ&A scheduled this afternoon at 4:00 PM ET. NHC Deputy Director and Storm Surge Expert Jamie Rhome will join me to take your questions about the expected impacts from Hurricane Erin and any other questions you have. We'll be live on Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, X, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Hope to see you then. Hurricane Erin is slowly pulling away from the Bahamas and dramatically growing in size. The top winds have weakened to Category 2 – but th...| Hurricane Intel
