It’s early so it’s just speculation at this point, but we know that given how far south the wave is and the time of year, this one is unlikely to gain a lot of latitude before getting into the central Caribbean. That said, once it gets there, the ensemble guidance today has been less aggressive with ridging. This one could be a long tracker with an eventual trip to the Gulf/SW Atlantic. It does kind of have an Elsa vibe. Long way to go obviously…

Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 800 PM EDT Thu Jun 23 2022 For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico: 1. Tropical Atlantic: A tropical wave located over the eastern tropical Atlantic continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms. This activity has become a bit more concentrated this evening, and environmental conditions appear conducive for additional development over the next few days. A tropical depression could form by early next week as this system moves westward at around 15 mph over the tropical Atlantic. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent. Forecaster Papin

20/40 odds now and that should only go up. The upper environment to the west, especially in the Caribbean, is highly anomalous with very little shear. We’ll see if the current wave is able to maximize potential should the pattern materialize, but it’s one to watch.

12z EPS

Euro comes in hot with development of the wave in 5 days. Operational guidance at this range should certainly be taken with a grain of salt, but given the awfully favorable upper level environment, I do think there’s greater than 50% odds for another named storm to develop next week. I’m interested. With the wave being so low in latitude, the odds of it hitting something are high. Watch the amplitude of the ridge…

The 12z guidance so far today is a little more aggressive with TC genesis.

The EPS is now squarely on board with tropical genesis occurring with the current wave in the eastern Atlantic. It’s early climo wise for action in the MDR and east/central Caribbean, but guidance across the board shows a relatively favorable upper level environment with dramatically reduced trade winds. Anomalous for this time of year. The wave itself is convectively active, but disorganized. The NHC now has a lemon on it.

Tropical Atlantic: A tropical wave located over the eastern tropical Atlantic is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions could become conducive for gradual development of this system by early next week as the disturbance moves westward at around 15 mph over the tropical Atlantic. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

Yeah it’s been pretty dry here. The rain is welcome. At the very least it’s a change of pace. Clearly I wouldn’t do well in San Diego.

Still a little early for CV season, but now it’s time to start watching the MDR with a closer eye.

Raining pretty good here in Hartford.

I’m at the underwriting stage for what would be my first house, and while everything should be fine, it still feels nerve wracking.

I always thought the peak was squarely in July. I’m ready for tropical.

Thanks. I hate that we wasted that EML a few weeks ago, but the heart of storm season is around the corner I guess.

I wonder what the return time is for a storm like that in CT. Baseball hail is big time.

When severe storms were severe storms

Paging @Eskimo Joe

It was cool but dry here during the day. Not the best, but fine. The rain after dark is ok with me.

Would have been excellent for mby in winter, but alas, it’s June.

Best rain imby in a while.

Boring. Fits the theme of the season.

What’s the benchmark river flooding event in Maine?

I’m used to the heat, but last night I woke up in the middle of the night and it was a furnace. My apartment is extraordinary at retaining heat. Great during winter, absolutely outrageous during the summer. During that furnace summer in 2012 I was a student living in an apartment when it was 100 at HFD. No AC. That was wild. 100%. Nothing like childhood days playing in the neighborhood.

Caved today and installed.
