Odds of development on a tropical wave moving towards the Caribbean are now up to 40%. Some forecast models fade this system out entirely, while others strengthen it and curve it north before making it in to our neck of the woods. We’ll keep our eyes on it through the week ahead, but as of now it is not a high concern to us in Southeast Texas.
July 27 9 a.m.
We’re watching a tropical wave moving towards the Caribbean that has a 30% chance of development over the next 7 days. Some forecast models are strengthening this into a named storm, but there is low confidence in whether or not that will happen, and essentially zero confidence in any eventual specific landfall destination. For now it’s just a potential storm that we’ll be keeping an eye on.
July 25 1 p.m.
The National Hurricane Center has identified a new tropical wave for potential development over the next 7 days. There is no specific threat to Texas from it at this time, but we’ll continue to monitor it for you just in case.
