Quick Tropical Weather Update - GOM Looks Fine, Maybe an East Coast Threat

August 8, 2022

Just a quick Monday morning update on the tropics. On Saturday the NHC started watching a tropical wave way out in the east Atlantic. Currently, they give this wave a 40% chance of development over the next five days. Development is not a sure thing at this point but right now it doesn't look like this will be any threat to the Gulf. It looks like this system will stay north of the Lesser and Greater Antilles but it may eventually be a threat to the northern Bahamas and then the East Coast. Even so, it'll be about a week and a half to two weeks before this is a concern.



That's it for today, I just wanted you to know this was out there, nothing to be concerned about for us along the Gulf but something to watch for folks on the East Coast.

Have a great week.

Chris
