TROPICAL STORM ERIKA – Update – 6 AM USA EDT, 29 August 2015

Tropical Storm Erika – Update – 6 AM USA EDT, 29 August 2015 –

Tropical Storm Erika has interacted with some of the mountains of The Dominican Republic but not all. The storm has gone through several central low pressure core replacement cycles, which has moved the storm a bit farther to the west and therefore, has pushed the projected track of this storm farther west as well. The CURRENT 6 AM USA EDT 29 August 2015 projections are for the storm to pass over central Cuba early Sunday, August 30, and enter the very warm waters of the southeastern Gulf of Mexico. Warm water is the ‘fuel’ for Tropical Storms and strengthening is a good possibility. All persons who live in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana should be monitoring the progress of this storm by local media broadcasts and the official advisories coming from the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
