TD #4 is looking pretty strong, and the NHC has the possibility of a Hurricane Debby in the next 12 hours.
This storm is tracking more westward than initially thought, and could pose a threat to the Lower Antilles. As far as the GoM is concerned, I am not sure it can make it, however, there is a “disturbance” in the Caribbean Islands that could form up later this week, hence my though that by this weekend we have an outside possibility of a tropical system in the Gulf.
In any case, all of these systems are a long way from here, and we are still looking good in terms of avoiding a strike for the present time.
The tropical waves continue to roll off of the African Coast, and we are seeing increasingly favorable conditions for development on our stretch of the beach. As we have discussed, the lull appears to be over and I feel that we will be seeing several systems spin up over the next 8 weeks.
I will provide additional updates tomorrow and as conditions warrant.
