I’m sure a lot of us quietly would love a storm to track and love the natural beauty of big storms, but maybe don’t openly act so excited and seemingly be rooting for a devastating storm. Real lives are affected and it isn’t just a video game. I can only hope as this or any storm gets closer to land these kinds of post get cleaned up. You can start your own wish casting thread if you want but don’t bring it in here.

This is how I felt. I came to this forum rooting for winter weather, and when we did it obviously when it became an emergency situation we would alert people and let them know what to do.  I came here looking for input on a vacation planned Aug 15-22 and noticed there is active rooting for a hurricane to develop and track towards mainland U.S. which just seems felt odd to me. By all means, track and get hyped all you want, but getting excited over one tracking towards us just seems eh..

If you don’t want a US hit then you want the TC to form as early as possible as stonger storms tend to be pulled poleward quicker.

yeah we will see, mother nature can be crazy, but this smells like one for the Fish.

Bam bam bam

1. Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL97):
Showers and thunderstorms continue to show signs of organization 
in association with a well-defined low pressure area located over 
the eastern portion of the Cabo Verde Islands.  Only a small 
increase in the organization could lead to the formation of a 
tropical depression as the low continues moving across the Cabo 
Verde Islands tonight and on Monday.  Regardless of development, 
locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds are expected to continue 
tonight and Monday across the Cabo Verde Islands, and interests 
there should monitor the progress of this system.

Even if a tropical depression does not form over the next day or so, 
environmental conditions appear conducive for later development, and 
a tropical depression or tropical storm is expected to form by the 
middle to latter portion of this week while moving westward to
west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph across the eastern and central 
tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.

I wonder if the ensemble average/ low SLP spots give a very good indication of where the storm will be at in a week (or more.) (Something like, east of the Bahamas.) I'll try to see what these ensembles say in 2-3 days.

I really like using a “super ensemble” to visualize what’s being modeled, and Tomer has a great site that shows the trend over time.

On this ensemble at least looking at the players on the field the center of the high way out in the Eastern Atlantic would allow this to turn north or even continue westbound depending on high up north along the Eastern States.    Now what is exactly going on along the east coast will tell the tale to where exactly this will go.  I mean right now (and caveat is right now) there is quite a bit of blocking going on off the Mid-Atlantic and New England coasts the Carolinas by no means are out of the woods at this long lead or up into the Middle Atlantic and Northeast.

I mean...that's a TC to me.

SHIPS has continued to get more aggressive with development, and now has this becoming our first major hurricane of the year in a few days when it reaches a more favorable environment.

97L is getting an upper level assist from a passing CCKW, but heat content and SSTs will significantly improve further west.

That said, note the drier air ahead of it though. It may impact its ability to intensify despite its current IR display.

Just a quick reminder that this is happening in 25-26 C waters. This demonstrates that while important, raw sea surface temperatures are only one aspect of the picture when it comes down to maintaining a tropical cyclone. The June-July chatter about this season struggling with stability in August, Atlantic Nina, lukewarm tropical sea surface temperatures, etc. now feels like ancient history

Tropical Storm Erin Discussion Number   1
Barry Central Pub Forecast Centre       AL052025
200 PM CVT Mon Aug 11 2025

Right lads & lasses, she’s on. The lass Erin’s finally laced up her boots 
after mucking about over them Cabo Verde Islands, and now she’s off 
down the wing at 17 knots; proper pace, none of this 
sideways passing nonsense. Got the Dvorak ratings in from the 
boffins, said she’s at 40 knots now which is about a Force 8 on 
the Blackpool Prom scale.

She’s heading west like a winger on the counterattack, could cut 
slightly south if she fancies a nutmeg on the Azores defence. 
Midfield ridge still keeping her onside, but give it a few days and 
she might drift poleward for the big shot. Model spread at the end’s 
as wide as the gap in England’s back four in the 2010 World Cup.

Intensity forecast: tricky one. Small lass, could bulk up quick 
or trip over her own laces. Pitch conditions are fair; light 
shear, but only 26-27°C SSTs so not exactly a warm pint. Dry air 
lurking like the away fans. Expect her to slowly work up to a 
respectable Cat 1 by midweek, then maybe start putting the 
proper goals in later on when she finds warmer waters. Models 
say she could be a major by full-time. CAM ON ERIN.
