Only thing happening attm is an African wave that has a 20% chance of development. Nothing really worth talking about for at least another week here.

A 50% chance for development thanks to a brand new wave off of Africa emerging:

The ATL basin is starting to wake up. 3 disturbances to keep an eye on. Each has between a 10-30% chance of development.

It's early - I know, but the GEFS looks potentially interesting for our hood down the road with this one....

As does the OP GFS. Euro is a bit too far to the East with its track. Have not seen EPS.

I would say so also Mike, but let's watch and see where the front stalls out this weekend. The closer to us the better. The further away to the south that it is, the more likely the Euro / EPS are right.

As the tropics get going expect the western part of the USA to finally cool down. Been a dry and hot summer so I am sure they will take the relief that usually happens when the Atlantic Hurricane season gets going in full force.

Models are showing the Atlantic waking up for sure. The GFS looked pretty active today.

Good Morning and of course I am heading back to Greenville on Monday just in time for Fred. Schools start next week and we are spending a week down there. Rain looks very likely and if the track is just right some heavy rain. Good thing is the winds at this time don't look horrible but I have seen them cancel schools and business when the winds get over 30 mph which is strange imo.

Yeah... you should be in a good spot for t-storms and rain from this one, Tim. Agree... be ready! :) Just hope the tornado aspect isn't too bad with this one.

With Freddie going right over DR and then variousother islands, I expect it to be a TS or an outside chance at a weak 1 when it hits the Fl coast . It slows down considerably as it traverses Fl

Fred is still at 45 as the land interaction begins...

Meanwhile next one behind him in the Eastern ATL now has a 50% chance of development. This thread should be getting busy now for a while as the prime hurricane season for us is now here.

I was going to post a Fred Flintstone pic if we got a hurricane out of him, but I think the chances of that happening are low.

TD Fred is down to 35 mph between PR and DR moving WNW at 16. Going to be tough for this one to become a cane prior to hitting FL. Will stick with a mod to strong TS.

Eastern ATL wave has a 60% chance in the next 5 days.

TD Fred has winds of 35 moving WNW at 12. The next wave has a 70% chance now. Likely to become Grace next week and take a similar Fred-like track.
