  • "Tropical Storm Alberto Threatens Mexico's East Coast as Hurricane Season Ramps Up"
    May 21 2025
    As of the past 24 hours, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) has issued multiple alerts concerning weather activity in the Atlantic basin, with particular attention focused on Tropical Storm Alberto, which formed in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico late Monday evening. Alberto became the first named storm of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, prompting tropical storm warnings for large portions of Mexico’s eastern coastline and raising concerns for heavy rainfall along parts of the Gulf Coast.

    According to the NHC's 10 a.m. Tuesday update, Alberto is expected to move westward towards mainland Mexico with a likely landfall in the state of Tamaulipas within the next 24 to 36 hours. While wind speeds remain moderate, the storm's primary threat stems from excessive rainfall potentially leading to flash flooding and mudslides across northeastern Mexico, including Monterrey and surrounding mountainous regions. Some outer bands may also bring rain to southeastern Texas, though forecasters at NOAA expect minimal wind impacts for the U.S. coastline.

    Meanwhile, meteorologists continue to monitor a second, less organized disturbance located in the central Atlantic. Designated Invest 92L by the NHC, this system shows signs of gradual development as it travels west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph. While the probability for cyclonic development over the next 48 hours remains low at 20 percent, forecasters note that environmental conditions may become more favorable later this week. If it continues to organize, it could potentially become the second named storm of the season.

    In terms of larger trends, NOAA reiterated in its recent climate update that this year’s hurricane season, which officially began June 1, is expected to be above average due to warmer-than-normal Atlantic sea surface temperatures and a transition from El Niño to La Niña conditions over the Pacific. Experts warn that these factors may contribute to both higher intensity and frequency of storms through the peak months of August and September.

    Coastal communities, particularly along the Gulf of Mexico and the southeastern United States, are encouraged to review evacuation plans and stay updated with local emergency management offices. Meteorologists also advise mariners and offshore operators to monitor marine advisories closely as changing wind and wave conditions pose ongoing hazards.

    Looking ahead, meteorologists will be closely watching Invest 92L for signs of development as it nears the Lesser Antilles by the weekend. Additionally, new disturbances are expected to emerge off the West African coast in the coming days, potentially marking the early stages of more sustained tropical activity ahead of the season’s peak.

  • "Tropical Disturbance Brewing in Caribbean as Hurricane Season Continues"
    May 20 2025
    Over the past 24 hours, the National Hurricane Center (NHC), alongside NOAA and major weather agencies, has continued to monitor several weather systems of interest across the Atlantic and Gulf basins as the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season progresses. At present, no named storms are actively impacting the U.S. coastline, but meteorologists are closely following a developing tropical disturbance in the southwest Caribbean Sea.

    According to the NHC, this broad area of low pressure located just north of Panama is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear marginally favorable for gradual development over the next several days, with a 30 percent chance of cyclonic formation through the next week. While the system is currently disorganized, warm sea surface temperatures and reduced wind shear could support slow intensification should it drift northward toward Central America or the Yucatan Peninsula.

    Elsewhere in the Atlantic, a separate tropical wave is being monitored off the coast of West Africa, although this disturbance is not currently exhibiting signs of rapid development. The system bears watching more closely later this week should it maintain structure over open water, but for now, atmospheric conditions, including high-level wind shear and dry Saharan air, are expected to suppress further intensification.

    Meteorologists at NOAA have also issued widespread marine advisories along portions of the Gulf Coast due to strong onshore winds and elevated surf, particularly near the Texas and Louisiana coasts. These conditions stem from a persistent area of low pressure over the south-central United States and are not directly related to tropical activity but are causing dangerous rip currents and minor coastal flooding in vulnerable low-lying areas.

    Rainfall totals throughout the Gulf and Southeast have already reached one to three inches in some areas over the past two days, prompting localized flood advisories by the National Weather Service. While no hurricane watches or warnings are currently in effect for the United States, forecasters caution that this time of year often sees rapid storm formation, especially in the Caribbean and Gulf regions.

    Looking ahead, NOAA and the NHC continue to monitor atmospheric patterns conducive to late-season cyclone development. With ocean temperatures remaining above seasonal averages and the official hurricane season running through November 30, forecasters urge coastal residents to remain vigilant. Updates are expected in the coming days as conditions evolve in the southwest Caribbean, a region historically active in late October and early November.

  • "Tracking Tropical Storm Tammy and Potential Atlantic Disturbances as Hurricane Season Continues"
    May 19 2025
    As of the past 24 hours, the Atlantic hurricane season remains active with the National Hurricane Center monitoring multiple systems showing potential for further development. According to the latest advisory issued by NOAA and the NHC, Tropical Storm Tammy, now strengthening in the western Atlantic, has begun tracking north-northwestward after impacting portions of the Lesser Antilles earlier this week with gusty winds and heavy rainfall. Tammy is forecast to accelerate northeast over the next few days, with maximum sustained winds increasing slightly as the system takes a path that keeps it away from the U.S. mainland and Bermuda, though marine conditions are expected to deteriorate in the western Atlantic through midweek.

    Meanwhile, closer to the southeastern U.S. coast, a broad area of low pressure continues to organize several hundred miles off the coast of the Carolinas. The NHC gives this disturbance a medium chance, approximately 40 percent, of developing into a tropical or subtropical cyclone within the next seven days. Satellite imagery and surface observations indicate minimal organization as of now, but conditions are expected to become more conducive for gradual development by the weekend. Regardless of whether it becomes a named storm, forecasters warn of the potential for increased surf, rip currents, and minor coastal flooding along portions of the mid-Atlantic and southeastern U.S. coastline beginning late Friday into early next week.

    In the eastern Pacific, Hurricane Norma has weakened to a tropical depression and is no longer considered a significant threat. However, the system’s remnants continue to bring locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds to parts of western Mexico. Emergency services in the region remain on alert due to lingering flood risks in low-lying areas. Elsewhere across the tropics, no major systems are expected to develop over the next five days, though seasonal weather patterns continue to support above-average tropical activity chances through the end of October.

    Looking ahead, the National Hurricane Center is closely monitoring the next tropical wave emerging off the coast of West Africa, which may be the last major wave of the season capable of significant development. Long-range models suggest this system could organize as it moves westward across the Atlantic next week, potentially posing future risks to the Caribbean, though confidence remains low at this early stage. Coastal communities are advised to stay informed and keep preparedness plans up to date as the peak of hurricane season gradually winds down.
