Possible Sub-tropical Development Next Week

Thu, 12 Apr 2012 16:13:00 GMT

Models are picking up on a possible cut-off extratropical low pressure system forming in the Mid-Subtropical Atlantic early next week. This would occur in an area that would be semi-favorable for development with 24ºC-26ºC sea surface temperatures and little wind shear. The CMC, European, and GFS models are all in agreement that some low pressure system will develop to the east of Bermuda, but where it will go is where it differs.Image 1: The area where the mod...

However, since it has entered the high wind shear in excess of 30-40kts, it has fired some convection over the wave axis. It's interesting how the invest was almost a tropical depression over the waters where it could develop and now its fighting the shear as its trying to make a comeback in the high shear. The Nat...

92L fizzles; 92E strengthens while 93E is born

Tue, 15 Jun 2010 21:22:00 GMT

92L kept its thunderstorms together last night but have disintegrated today. 92L was a very rare ITCZ disturbance that broke off from the ITCZ and organized itself. This is VERY rare for the month of June because wind shear usually is too strong for tropical development east of the Lesser Antilles. Development of this system is slim to none now because a combination of dry air and wind shear will tear this invest apart. This will be an invest that we will remember f...
