AI Claims Storm In Gulf Next Week, Time To Subscribe To New Podcast

Those of us who lived here most of our lives know that the Heart of Hurricane Season begins around August 15th and runs through Oct. 10th.  That's when the most storms form and the greatest intensity storms develop.  Once into early October, cold fronts start coming as the upper westerlies increase, turning the threat away from us.  But it's a long way until Oct. 10th, and the new A.I. model keeps trying to bring a hurricane into the Gulf around August 16th.

I point this out to encourage you to go to my blog and sign up for my new podcast coming August 11th.  Don't wait until the storm is upon us to try to subscribe, as the crush of people trying to sign up might crash our site.  

Sign up today for just $2/month.  We offer only one option, and that's a yearly subscription for $24.  IF you want to hear my voice during a Tropical threat, IF you want to get another opinion and not just what NHC puts out, then go sign up.  $2/month is a no-brainer.  There's a reason I was YOUR WEATHER AUTHORITY for 40+ years.  Knowledge (B.S. in Meteorology/Oceanography, University of Michigan 69) plus experience (54 years) equals your TRUST.  Today's paper had a story about how quiet the 2025 season has been so far.  But is the switch about to flip?

NHC is highlighting an area off the Carolina coast for development this week.

IF this were to form into Dexter, it's east of Florida heading out to sea.  Not our problem.  Coming off of Africa is nothing.

I am seeing a small rotation NW of Puerto Rico heading towards the Bahamas, but no model sees it, and it has no storms around it. The local forecast challenge is figuring out which local boundary will set up over you.

There is quite a change (better feel) in the air mass north of the frontal boundary.  We could actually get in on some drier air tomorrow & Monday.

Rain coverage is below normal (20%) as the main boundary was along the coast this morning.  I saw a video on FOX 8 that had 6 waterspouts at the same time along that boundary.

No rain means we're back to 90+.  No major changes are expected this week.  

Again, tropical activity is likely to ram up during the next 10-14 days.  Don't wait until the threat is here.  Go sign up for my podcast that begins on August 11th.  Thanks to all of you who have signed in already.   Stay tuned!
