Tropical Weather

Hurricane season begins in just 2 days and the National Hurricane Center is already monitoring a disorganized area of showers and storms in the eastern Gulf of Mexico for possible development. Right now, chance for development is very low (10%) over the next 48 hours with a 20% shot for formation into a tropical cyclone over the next 7 days. Regardless of development or not, models take this system into the Florida and away from Texas by this weekend.

Today marks the final day of the hurricane season for 2022. We wrap up the season with near average numbers of 14 named storms, 8 hurricanes and 2 major hurricanes. Fiona was the first major hurricane of the season that developed in the middle of September and eventually turned into a powerful post-tropical cyclone doing damage in Canada. Hurricane Ian was the most significant and damaging hurricane of the season, producing major damage in Florida making landfall as a Category 4 late September around Cayo Costa Island. Ian was the deadliest hurricane to strike the state of Florida since the 1935 Labor Day hurricane. We end the season on a quiet note with no tropical activity in the Atlantic, Gulf, Caribbean or Eastern Pacific.

The end of this year's hurricane season arrives tomorrow and it looks like we'll end it on a quiet note. There are currently no tropical cyclones expected in the Atlantic, Gulf, Caribbean or Eastern Pacific over the next 5 days.
