Named Storm Ian – 2022 Update, Monday, September 26, 2022. 

This storm made Hurricane status early Monday, September 26, and is undergoing an intensification cycle as it starts it’s northerly turn. As this Hurricane leaves the western Caribbean and enters the southeastern Gulf of Mexico, it will most likely strengthen into a Major Hurricane. It’s projected track will be along the Gulf Coast of Florida, just off shore. This is a worse case scenario because of the flood prone areas that will be affected by Storm Surge to the east of the center of this storm.

Persons from the Florida Keys all the way north to Panama City and possibly even Pensacola, should be monitoring Emergency Government Orders and follow those orders immediately. Not only will there be storm surge, but this slow moving, large Hurricane has the potential to produce huge amounts of rain. Totals could exceed 18 inches of rain in some areas. Persons along the Gulf Coast of Florida will be affected the most, but ALL PERSONS in Florida will be impacted in some way by this Hurricane. Florida Gulf Coast residents may experience extremely heavy rain, extremely high winds with building damage or destruction, extreme storm surge, catastrophic flooding, intense waves and tornadoes.  

If you are in a flood zone and are given mandatory evacuation orders by your Emergency Government Office, follow those orders immediately. Your life may depend on it.

Named Storm Ian – 2022 formed in the south central Caribbean from Tropical Depression #9. This storm is moving generally westerly across the southern Caribbean. Because of the very warm waters in that part of the Caribbean, this storm has the potential to rapidly develop, because these storms feed off of the warm waters that they travel over.

We are watching this system very carefully because it has the potential to get in to the southeastern Gulf of Mexico early this coming week where the water is shallower and even warmer. Persons in all Gulf Coast states, especially Florida, should be monitoring this storm very carefully. Early tracking models from international agencies are showing a Florida Gulf Coast landfall as a Major Category 3 (or above) Hurricane near Tampa Bay, Florida, Wednesday, September 28. HOWEVER, there are some weather features over the southern US that could interact with this storm and change this projected location and timing. We will update our unofficial information as conditions change. For now, persons in the entire State of Florida, Coastal Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana should be monitoring local Emergency Government news releases and follow their orders.

Named Storm Hermine – 2022 formed just off the west coast of Africa from Tropical Depression # 10. This storm is projected to move generally north, following the western Africa coastline where it will encounter unfavorable atmospheric conditions and will decrease in strength rather rapidly.

This storm will not affect the US in any way, so this will be our only mention of Named Storm Hermine. However, please watch for unofficial information soon concerning Tropical Depression # 9, which will most likely become Named Storm Ian. Tropical Depression # 9 is currently in the south central Caribbean and will be affecting the Gulf Coast of the US and especially Florida around September 27 or 28.

Named Storm Gaston formed in the Central Atlantic from a Depression. This storm will be randomly moving slowly around the central Atlantic, well away from any land. There could be some minor interaction with Hurricane Fiona in a few days but since there is a high probability that no US interests are going to be involved with Named Storm Gaston, this will be our only mention of this storm.

Tropical Depression # 7 formed in the central Tropical Atlantic. This storm may soon become Named Storm Fiona – 2022 and will be moving generally west-northwest through the northern Caribbean. Persons in all the northern Caribbean Islands should be monitoring the progress of this storm. This Depression has the potential to strengthen and affect the Southeastern US and possibly the Gulf Coast, so we are monitoring this situation closely and we will post unofficial updates as needed.

UPDATE: September 18, 2022 – Hurricane Fiona has been affected by steering currents out of the southwest and will be turning the storm northerly passing over Hispaniola and eventually north-easterly passing near Bermuda and in to the north Atlantic. This hurricane could reach Major Category and so far, the only interaction with the US east coast will be for heavy surf and rip currents for the next week or so.

Named Storm Earl – 2022 developed near the Caribbean Leeward Islands from a tropical depression. This Tropical Storm is moving west-northwest at 12 to 14 miles per hour and will be passing to the north of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola. Regional conditions are unfavorable for intensification. A weather feature coming off the US Southeast Coast will make “Earl” start to turn north and then northeast by early Monday, September 5, and will direct it into the north Atlantic. Since this storm has nearly a zero chance of affecting the East Coastal US, this will be our only mention of Named Storm Earl – 2022.

Named Storm Danielle – 2022 formed from a tropical low pressure wave located about 775 miles west of the Azores in the central Atlantic. This storm is very slowly moving to the east and northeast and may make hurricane strength within a few days.
This storm will not be affecting the US, however persons along the western coasts of Europe should be monitoring the progress of this storm carefully. Because this storm system will not affect Coastal US interests, this will be our only mention of Named Storm Danielle – 2022.
