Tropical Atlantic Quiet Today. Look For Action the Weekend of July 25th. Stay Tuned.



Current look at the Tropical Atlantic.
Quiet and hot in the South.
Pop Up Storms in some areas.
It can only get so hot and humid before...
...it rains like crazy.
But nothing developed.
Near Africa we have a set of waves.
Models don't scream Hurricane right now.

My thoughts with pictures and video is below. Then I go into more detail. We are in a wait and see what happens mode so enjoy this time, you will miss it come August and September.




I show this set of images for a reason.
Scroll down a bit you'll see them.

The gray grid shows purple near Africa.
Blue and Purple on the 2nd frame.
Once we see blue and purple we pay attention more.

DEEP REDS in the Top image means HOT WATER.
As in ready to support Tropical Development.
So while it's quiet.....
...the tropics are setting up for action.
Use the quiet time wisely.
Make lists or get what you need.
Figure out where you will go to evacuate.
And enjoy the silence in the tropics.

Been a bit quiet in the tropics on the Atlantic side and it should stay that way for a few days. Pop up thundersstorms are always an issue and while Miamians are complaining about the heat, those on the Tampa side are enjoying cooler than normal temperatures. Usually when the East Coast is slammed with heat or severe weather the West Coast of Florida gets a respite. The dynamics of Florida's unique climatology with a sea breeze and a land breeze, thunderstorms out over the Gulfstream and no air moves in Orlando this time of year as it's hot, heavy and only a place the tourists enjoy.

A few days ago I made a post explaining why it was quiet and why I thought the Weekend of the 25th would see more to talk about and a concern on a storm forming that could possibly last longer than a day or two. Our early Hurricane Season visitors have been short term one night stays before moving on, but down the tropical road we will see "guests" that are pests and that we wish were not hanging around so long. This is the slide time, the quiet time when people take pictures of tropical sunsets enhanced by Saharan Dust and the waters warm up fast while no one is looking.

Have a good day.

Twitter mostly weather.
Instagram whatever until real hurricanes happen.

Ps... one of my all time favorite storms... enjoy.
