Named Storms Emily, Franklin and Gert, 2023

Three Named storms have formed in the Atlantic and are all encountering unfavorable conditions to develop rapidly. The only storm that will be affecting land is Franklin – and it will be moving northerly across Hispaniola August 22 and 23 before it starts moving Northeast into the north Atlantic.

We are also watching a disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico that may become a named storm before landfall near the Texas/Mexico border into August 22 and 23. Persons along the western Gulf of Mexico should be monitoring the progress of this disturbance.

Day 4 (June 23, 2023): Hurricane Bret will continue to move west-northwestward and could make landfall in the northeastern Caribbean Sea.

Day 5 (June 24, 2023): Hurricane Bret will weaken as it moves over land and could dissipate over the Dominican Republic or Haiti.

Day 6 (June 25, 2023): The remnants of Hurricane Bret will continue to move west-northwestward and could bring heavy rain to Cuba and the Bahamas.

Day 7 (June 26, 2023): The remnants of Hurricane Bret will dissipate over the western Atlantic Ocean.

Please note that this forecast is based on the current data and conditions. If the data or conditions change, the forecast may also change. It is important to stay informed about the latest forecasts and to take appropriate action if Bret makes landfall.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind:

  • The storm could bring heavy rain, strong winds, and flooding to the Lesser Antilles, the northeastern Caribbean Sea, Cuba, the Bahamas, and the western Atlantic Ocean.
  • The storm could also bring storm surge to the coast, which could cause flooding in low-lying areas.
  • It is important to stay informed about the latest forecasts and to take appropriate action if Bret makes landfall.

Named Storm Arlene – 2023

Named Storm Arlene formed in the East Central Gulf of Mexico from a tropical depression. The storm may be short lived because of upper level wind shear that will most likely dissipate the storm over the next few days as it moves south toward western Cuba.

Persons along the Gulf Coast of Florida may see occasional rain and gusty winds as well as some higher wave action. We will monitor this system, but this will probably be our only mention of Tropical Storm Arlene.
