2024 Hurricane Season Discussion

[Goomba]

If this gets anywhere in the gulf and catches a ride north all bets are off. Though that scenario is still on the table, at this juncture it's not likely. This high pressure is strong and vast.
Just as things have changed since suggestions from a few days ago, I'm sure they will change again. Ike was a perfect example of it ain't done until it's done.

Beryl or the one after?

And just a suggestion... could we have separate threads for the different systems?

There is no reason why we can't have separate threads at all. I highly encourage folks start and then update their threads to keep them timely. It certainly would make it a whole lot easier to follow different systems.

Thanks. I hope it's helpful.

A Beryl full of monkees and we're just getting started.



And the hits just keep on a comin.'

Looks like the BoC invest is now a Tropical Storm.

Just had a pro met say we really need to watch future Chris

Debby now, but yeah, it’s kinda getting my attention.

From the HGX Tropical Weather Outlook

.TROPICAL...
Issued at 350 AM CDT Mon Jul 1 2024

TS Chris is making landfall on Mexico`s Gulf Coast and is a non-issue
here. Hurricane Beryl should make its way across the Yucatan and
into the Bay of Campeche late Friday. The 00z ensembles are mostly
clustered well to our south beyond that - which is good. But as
with all long range forecasts, there are uncertainties involved.
What will Beryl look like after moving across land? What will the
shear profile look like? What is the ridging situation and
steering flow locally? Etc, etc. So really not a lot to be alarmed
about at the moment...but just keep an eye on things as the week
progresses. 47

1. Central Tropical Atlantic (AL96):
Showers and thunderstorms continue in association with an area of
low pressure located over 1000 miles east-southeast of the Windward
Islands. Environmental conditions appear marginally conducive for
additional development of this system, and a tropical depression
could form by the middle part of this week while it moves generally
westward at 15 to 20 mph across the central and western tropical
Atlantic. Interests in the Lesser Antilles should monitor the
progress of this system.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...60 percent.

Already on the lookout for the next one, but no signs of any action anytime soon. Looks like a quiet couple weeks ahead.

Just one thing to remember folks. This the first inning of a 9 inning game. We have a long way to go

People won’t want to hear this, but Beryl could be just an appetizer.

I'm afraid you're right. We have a lull for at least 2 weeks.....enough to foster complacency amongst the area's citizens (many of whom had never experienced a landfalling hurricane before).
I shudder to think of what the tropics will look like end of July and into August and September.

From the Eyewall.

The three week tropical weather outlook from the Climate Prediction Center (CPC) is quite quiet for the Atlantic basin.


Tropical cyclone activity is not especially likely in the Atlantic basin for the remainder of July. (NOAA CPC)
We seem to be entering a period where dust and sinking air dominates much of the basin. Sinking air and dust tends to suppress thunderstorm growth and development. This inhibits tropical systems from forming. Most of the rising air in the background of the atmosphere is over the Pacific right now, hence why development odds seem higher in that basin, both east and west. Does that mean nothing will form? No. It’s entirely possible that something could still develop over the next 2 to 3 weeks, but it would likely be more sudden and close to home than long tracked like Beryl was. For now, let’s just enjoy the fact that quiet is expected, because it would seem to be that August will see the switch flip back to “on” for the Atlantic.




With quiet weather generally expected, we will take Friday off as we continue to have limited power and internet here in Houston. We’ll return with our next update Monday. Enjoy the weekend.
