BASSETERRE, St. Kitts - JUST two weeks into the 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season and already three disturbances are being monitored in various sections of the Western Hemisphere.
The first one is expected to fully develop off the coast of the United States and Canada in the coming days.
According to the National Hurricane Center, satellite and surface observations indicated that a well-defined low pressure system, located about 90 miles southeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, is acquiring more tropical characteristics.
Meteorologists said that environmental conditions appear conducive for further development, and that a tropical depression or tropical storm is likely to form later today (June 14) or tonight.
Then there is a second one that just left the coast of Africa, where there is a strong tropical wave just offshore of West Africa that is said to be producing disorganised showers and thunderstorm activity.
Forecasters however predicted that there would be some development of the system over the next few days before a combination of dry air aloft and strong upper-level winds limit any chance of formation.
Time to hype hurricane for profit. More to follow.
Yep.
Lowes, Home depot and Walmart love hurricane hype season.
Meanwhile all the beach hotels and restaurants get screwed.
Wife has a lifetime of fabric art, doll collections, china collections and other things that are easy to damage. Likewise we have lots of framed art and photos, art supplies and a couple of thousand books. These items in a partial damaged home open to the weather would be a nightmare.
We grew up with the tiny odds for total loss in a tornado being an accepted fact of life but the idea of a home bering partially damaged and exposed every few years is a different level of being uncomfortable.
Your prioritization of the risk issues is a great start in restricting my thinking and prioritizing should we make such a move as we are considering.
How about TS 0, the disturbance in Washington DC and the NE corridor?
You gotta end climate change or we’ll all die!
