In the past 24 hours, the National Hurricane Center and NOAA have issued multiple updates highlighting the development and progress of tropical weather systems in both the Atlantic and eastern Pacific basins. The most notable current activity centers around a developing disturbance in the western Caribbean Sea, designated as Invest 91L. According to NOAA, this system is showing signs of organization and is projected to move northwestward over the next several days toward the Gulf of Mexico. The Caribbean disturbance is presently producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms but is forecast to move into more favorable conditions for further development. The National Hurricane Center gives the system a 60 percent chance of forming into a tropical depression within the next 48 hours. If it does intensify, coastal regions along the southeastern Gulf, including parts of Florida’s west coast, may need to prepare for potential tropical storm conditions by late in the week.

Elsewhere in the Atlantic, Hurricane Lee, once a Category 3 storm, has weakened considerably as it tracks northeastward over colder waters near the Canadian Maritimes. As of the latest update from NOAA, Lee has transitioned into a post-tropical cyclone and is producing heavy rain and gusty winds across portions of Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. Coastal flood warnings and gale warnings remain in effect for parts of eastern Canada, though the system is expected to dissipate over the North Atlantic by midweek. No immediate threats from Lee remain for the United States coastline.

Meanwhile, in the eastern Pacific, a newly formed system known as Tropical Storm Miriam continues to move slowly westward. The National Hurricane Center reports that Miriam carries sustained winds of approximately 50 miles per hour but poses no imminent threat to land. Forecast models suggest the storm is likely to weaken over the open ocean, with minimal impacts anticipated for any coastal regions.

Weather.com and AccuWeather both noted a broader trend of increased Atlantic storm activity, consistent with the peak of hurricane season. With ocean temperatures remaining above average in the tropical Atlantic, forecasters are watching several additional tropical waves emerging from the coast of Africa. These have not yet formed into organized systems, but they represent potential development areas in the coming days.

Looking Ahead, forecasters will continue to monitor Invest 91L closely as it enters the Gulf, where warm waters and less wind shear may promote intensification. Coastal residents along the Gulf Coast, particularly in Florida and Alabama, are advised to stay informed through official channels as the situation evolves.

In the past 24 hours, meteorological agencies including the National Hurricane Center (NHC) and NOAA have issued critical updates on a rapidly evolving situation in the Atlantic basin as hurricane season gains momentum. As of this morning, Tropical Storm Alberto has formed in the western Gulf of Mexico, marking the first named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season. According to the latest NHC advisory, Alberto is expected to intensify modestly before making landfall along the northeastern coast of Mexico within the next 48 hours, bringing torrential rain, flash flooding, and dangerous surf conditions to parts of Texas and northeastern Mexico.

Coastal communities along the south Texas shoreline, including Corpus Christi and Brownsville, are under tropical storm watches. While the storm’s core is forecast to remain south of the U.S. border, outer bands could result in two to four inches of rain across southern Texas with isolated totals exceeding six inches in some areas. The National Weather Service has warned of possible urban flooding in low-lying areas and minor coastal inundation during high tides.

Meanwhile in the Atlantic, the NHC is also closely monitoring a separate area of low pressure located several hundred miles east of the Windward Islands. This disturbance has been given a 40 percent chance of formation over the next seven days as it moves westward across warm ocean waters. Though it is still in the early stages of development, meteorologists are urging residents in the Lesser Antilles to stay informed as conditions may become more favorable for intensification.

Elsewhere in the tropics, significant Saharan dust outbreaks are suppressing further cyclone activity in the eastern Atlantic. NOAA reports that this dry air mass is currently limiting convection and storm formation, serving as a natural brake on what otherwise appears to be an active start to the season. CNN Weather noted that such dust plumes often contribute to vivid sunsets but also impact air quality across parts of the Caribbean and southeastern U.S.

Looking ahead, forecasters are keeping a close watch on sea-surface temperatures, which remain anomalously high for this time of year. This unusual warmth could fuel further storm development as July approaches. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center reiterates that 2024 is strongly favored to be an above-average hurricane season, urging coastal residents to finalize preparedness plans as early activity underscores the season’s potential intensity.

As of the past 24 hours, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) has issued updates regarding several areas of interest in the Atlantic basin, although no active hurricanes are currently threatening the U.S. coastline. The 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, which officially began on June 1, has entered a quieter phase since its initial monitoring activity earlier this month, but meteorologists are urging continued vigilance as ocean temperatures remain above average and conditions remain favorable for development in the coming weeks.

According to the latest NHC update, a broad area of low pressure located several hundred miles east of the Windward Islands is showing weak organization. While the system remains disorganized at this time, forecasters note that environmental conditions could become marginally conducive for gradual development as it moves westward toward the Caribbean over the next few days. The NHC gives the system a low probability of development in the next 48 hours but advises interests in the Lesser Antilles to monitor any changes closely.

Elsewhere in the Atlantic, a second tropical wave has emerged off the west coast of Africa. Though early in its lifecycle, this system could gain some strength as it tracks westward over the open ocean. However, strong upper-level winds and dry air currently present in the central Atlantic basin are expected to limit significant development through the weekend.

Meanwhile, the Gulf Coast and southeastern U.S. continue to experience unsettled weather conditions, largely unrelated to tropical activity. NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center highlights ongoing heavy rain events in Louisiana, Mississippi, and parts of Alabama. Flash flood watches remain in effect for low-lying and urban areas prone to poor drainage. These storms are being fueled by a stalled frontal boundary and abundant Gulf moisture, with radar estimates reporting local rainfall totals exceeding three inches in less than 24 hours in some locations.

Meteorologists at Weather.com and AccuWeather echo NOAA’s call for preparedness despite the absence of major storms. They note that historically, July and August mark a ramp-up in storm activity, and ocean surface temperatures are already running 1.5 to 2 degrees Fahrenheit above average across key development zones.

Looking ahead, forecasters will closely monitor both the tropical wave east of the Caribbean and the newer system near Africa for signs of strengthening as they move westward. Additionally, atmospheric models suggest increased activity in the Atlantic’s main development region in about one to two weeks, potentially ushering in a more active phase of the season. Coastal communities are advised to remain alert and regularly consult official forecasts.

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have issued updated guidance over the past 24 hours as the Atlantic hurricane season begins to show signs of activity. As of this morning, two systems in the Atlantic basin are being closely monitored for potential tropical development, with one presenting early signs of formation in the eastern Caribbean.

The first area of interest is located several hundred miles east of the Windward Islands. The system is currently disorganized but is producing pockets of thunderstorm activity. NOAA forecast models suggest that as the disturbance moves westward toward warmer waters, environmental conditions could become more favorable for gradual development later this week. The NHC gives it a low chance of tropical cyclone formation over the next 48 hours, though those chances increase slightly looking toward the 7-day outlook.

A second disturbance is being tracked in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico. While relatively compact, this system has generated significant rainfall over parts of southern Mexico and portions of Central America. The NHC reports that the disturbance is expected to move slowly and remain near the coast, potentially limiting further development. However, heavy rains across already waterlogged regions could lead to flash flooding and mudslides through midweek. Local authorities have issued flood alerts in various parts of Veracruz and Tabasco states in Mexico in anticipation of further rain.

Meanwhile, NOAA climatologists continue to watch broader seasonal patterns. The latest update links rising Atlantic Ocean temperatures with a higher-than-normal probability of tropical development over the coming weeks. Sea surface temperatures across much of the Main Development Region remain significantly above average for early June. Meteorologists from The Weather Channel and AccuWeather have echoed these concerns, noting that warm water can fuel rapid storm intensification once systems begin to form.

At present, there are no named storms or hurricanes active in the Atlantic, and no coastal warnings or hurricane watches are in effect for the United States or Caribbean territories. However, residents in coastal regions are being advised to remain alert and to begin early preparations for hurricane season, which officially began on June 1.

Looking ahead, forecasters will be paying close attention to the eastern Caribbean system as it approaches the Lesser Antilles later this week. If development continues, it could bring gusty winds and heavy rains to parts of the region by the weekend. The Gulf disturbance is also expected to linger and potentially deliver several more inches of rain. The next NHC advisory will provide additional clarity on formation potential and track for both systems.

As of the past 24 hours, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) and other major weather reporting agencies have issued key updates on tropical activity in the Atlantic basin. While no named hurricanes are currently active, several systems are being closely monitored for development as the season shifts toward its historically busiest months. A broad area of low pressure located in the central tropical Atlantic, roughly midway between the Cabo Verde Islands and the Lesser Antilles, has gained some organization. According to the NHC’s latest update, there is a medium chance—about 40 percent—of this disturbance developing into a tropical depression over the next seven days. Environmental conditions remain marginally conducive for intensification, with intermittent bursts of convection observed, but upper-level wind shear may limit sustained strengthening in the near term.

Closer to the U.S. coastline, an area of disorganized showers and storms off the southeastern Florida coast is being tracked. Though tropical development is not expected from this system due to strong wind shear and interaction with land, forecasters caution that localized flooding and gusty winds could affect portions of South Florida and the Keys through tomorrow, particularly in low-lying areas. The National Weather Service (NWS) Miami office has issued a flood watch for coastal and urban zones, urging residents to monitor weather alerts.

Along the Gulf Coast, a stalled frontal boundary has led to persistent heavy rainfall in parts of southeastern Texas and southwestern Louisiana. The Weather Prediction Center (WPC) has issued a marginal to slight risk of excessive rainfall through late Thursday, with potential flash flooding in urban areas already saturated from recent downpours. In addition, elevated tide levels continue along parts of the mid-Atlantic and Northeast coastlines due to persistent onshore flow and lunar high tides. The National Ocean Service reported minor to moderate coastal flooding in tidal regions of New Jersey and Delaware during this morning’s high tide cycle.

Looking ahead, meteorologists are focusing on the eastern Atlantic for early signs of more robust tropical waves forecast to emerge off the African coast late this week. With sea surface temperatures trending above average in the Main Development Region and wind shear forecast to ease, conditions may become increasingly favorable for tropical cyclone formation moving into early July. The next scheduled tropical weather outlook from the NHC will provide further clarity as the Atlantic hurricane season begins to ramp up.

As of the latest updates from the National Hurricane Center and NOAA, the Atlantic hurricane season is showing increasing signs of activity as forecasters continue to monitor multiple weather systems. In the past 24 hours, the most significant development is the formation of Tropical Storm Alberto, currently located in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico. According to the National Hurricane Center’s 8 p.m. EDT advisory, Alberto is moving west-northwest at approximately 8 miles per hour with maximum sustained winds near 45 mph. The system is expected to make landfall along the northeastern coast of Mexico by late Thursday, while its outer bands extend into southern Texas.

Although Alberto is projected to remain a weak tropical storm, its slow movement and broad circulation are expected to bring heavy rainfall and localized flooding to parts of coastal Texas and northeastern Mexico. The National Weather Service has issued Tropical Storm Warnings for portions of the Texas coast from San Luis Pass to the mouth of the Rio Grande and down into Mexico. NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center highlights that rainfall totals could range from 4 to 8 inches, with isolated pockets nearing 12 inches in parts of South Texas and northern Mexico. Flash flood watches are currently in place for the region, particularly in areas with low-lying terrain and poor drainage.

Elsewhere in the Atlantic, the NHC is also monitoring two other tropical disturbances. One system, located several hundred miles east of the Windward Islands, has been given a medium chance of development over the next seven days. Though currently disorganized, environmental conditions are expected to support gradual development as it moves westward at 15 to 20 mph. The second system, farther east near the coast of Africa, is being closely tracked for long-term potential but remains poorly organized at this stage.

Tropical cyclone activity in the Eastern Pacific remains minimal, with no named storms currently active. However, meteorologists continue to watch for signs of disturbance in the equatorial Pacific that could influence tropical development in the coming weeks.

Looking ahead, residents along the Gulf Coast and coastal Mexico should remain alert to Alberto's movement and potential impacts midweek. With sea surface temperatures rising and atmospheric conditions becoming more favorable, forecasters caution that the tropical Atlantic could experience above-average activity this season. Continued monitoring and timely updates from NOAA and the National Hurricane Center will be essential as the situation evolves.

In the past 24 hours, the Atlantic hurricane season has witnessed a notable uptick in activity, as the National Hurricane Center (NHC) and NOAA issued fresh advisories related to new tropical disturbances and ongoing storm systems. As of the latest update, forecasters are closely monitoring an area of low pressure currently located a few hundred miles east of the Windward Islands. According to the NHC, this system is showing increasing signs of organization and holds a medium to high chance of development into a tropical depression over the next two to three days. Environmental conditions, including warm sea surface temperatures and light wind shear, are conducive to further intensification as the system moves west-northwestward at around 15 miles per hour.

If the system continues to develop, parts of the Lesser Antilles could experience gusty winds, heavy rains, and isolated flash flooding as early as late Thursday into Friday. Coastal regions in Saint Lucia, Dominica, and Martinique are advised to monitor local weather alerts closely. The Weather Channel has also reported that this disturbance could pose a threat to the eastern Caribbean by the weekend, depending on its trajectory and strength over the next 48 hours.

Farther out in the central tropical Atlantic, another system has emerged with a lower chance of development. Though it currently lacks a well-defined center, meteorologists are watching it for signs of organization. At this stage, it does not pose an immediate threat to land but reflects the increasingly active pattern expected as the season peaks in late August through September.

Meanwhile, the Eastern Pacific remains quiet, with no tropical cyclones currently active. NOAA expects relatively stable conditions over the next several days in that region, although forecasters do not rule out the formation of new systems with little lead time.

Closer to the U.S. mainland, heavy rainfall and flash flooding concerns are dominating parts of the Gulf Coast, particularly in southeastern Texas and coastal Louisiana. While not associated with any tropical system, this widespread rainfall is being amplified by tropical moisture streaming northward from the Caribbean.

Looking ahead, forecasters are urging residents of coastal and island regions to remain vigilant as conditions across the Atlantic become more favorable for tropical cyclone growth. With models suggesting ongoing disturbances and a possible rise in named storms before mid-July, NOAA expects increased activity in line with earlier seasonal predictions. The situation remains dynamic, and timely updates will be essential for public safety and preparedness.

In the past 24 hours, the National Hurricane Center and major weather services have closely monitored several tropical systems as the Atlantic hurricane season becomes increasingly active. As of this morning, Hurricane Beryl continues to be the primary system of concern, having intensified into a major Category 4 hurricane as it tracked westward over the central Atlantic. According to the National Hurricane Center, Beryl is bringing sustained winds exceeding 130 mph and is currently projected to approach the Lesser Antilles within the next 48 hours. A hurricane watch is now in effect for Barbados, Dominica, and St. Lucia, with heavy rainfall, storm surge, and damaging winds expected to impact these islands beginning late Sunday into Monday.

The NOAA has issued guidance for residents across the eastern Caribbean to monitor updates closely and complete storm preparations immediately. Storm surge estimates range from three to five feet for low-lying coastal areas, and rainfall of up to 6 inches may cause localized flooding. The system is forecast to maintain strength as it moves west-northwest through the Caribbean early next week, with potential impacts for larger islands including Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, and possibly Jamaica by midweek, depending on the forecast track.

Elsewhere in the Atlantic, a secondary disturbance located several hundred miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands is showing signs of gradual development. The system has a 40 percent chance of becoming a tropical depression over the next five days as it advances west across warm waters favorable for storm formation. While not an immediate threat, the system is being watched closely in case it strengthens in the central Atlantic corridor.

In the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea, no new systems are expected to form in the next 48 hours, but forecasters remain alert as conditions remain conducive for activity. Meanwhile, in the eastern Pacific, a weakening tropical depression has dissipated with no further impact expected for western Mexico or surrounding coastal communities.

Looking ahead, eyes remain on Hurricane Beryl as it moves closer to land. Emergency preparedness teams in the Caribbean have begun activating response protocols, and air travel may see disruptions across the Lesser Antilles starting Sunday night. Continued strengthening is still possible over the weekend, and longer-range models suggest a possible approach to the Yucatan Peninsula later in the week. The National Hurricane Center urges coastal residents to stay informed through official forecast updates and heed all local warnings as the situation evolves.

In the past 24 hours, weather agencies including NOAA and the National Hurricane Center have issued several updates on tropical activity in the Atlantic and Pacific basins. As of the latest advisories, the Atlantic remains relatively quiet with no tropical cyclones currently active, but forecasters are closely monitoring a developing low-pressure system east of the Lesser Antilles. According to the National Hurricane Center, this system is showing signs of organization and could develop into a tropical depression by the weekend as it moves west-northwest at 10 to 15 mph. Although it's too early to determine its specific path or potential strength, residents in the Eastern Caribbean are advised to monitor forecasts and prepare for increased rain and gusty winds later in the week.

In the Eastern Pacific, Tropical Storm Aletta formed briefly off the coast of southwestern Mexico but has since dissipated without causing significant impact. However, the remnants of the system are expected to produce scattered thunderstorms and rough surf along parts of the Mexican coastline. No coastal watches or warnings are currently in effect, but localized flooding in low-lying regions remains a concern through Wednesday, especially in parts of Oaxaca and Guerrero.

Elsewhere, NOAA's Climate Prediction Center has highlighted above-average sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic’s main development region, a factor that could support tropical cyclone formation in the coming weeks. Experts at AccuWeather have noted that while the season’s first few storms have been relatively weak, the building conditions could lead to a more active late summer and early fall. Weather.com meteorologists added that several African tropical waves, currently over the continent, are expected to move into the Atlantic by next week and could be worth watching for development.

In the United States, coastal regions from the Gulf Coast to the Carolinas are experiencing typical July weather patterns, including scattered thunderstorms and high humidity. There are no hurricane warnings in effect, but rip current advisories are posted along parts of Florida’s east coast due to distant swells from the Atlantic.

Looking ahead, meteorologists are monitoring a set of atmospheric disturbances that may begin to organize over the western Atlantic later this week. While no immediate threats have been identified, both NOAA and the National Hurricane Center emphasize the importance of early preparation as the peak of hurricane season approaches in August and September. Continued vigilance and frequent forecast updates will be vital for those living along the coast.

Over the past 24 hours, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have issued updated advisories regarding several tropical systems currently active in the Atlantic basin. According to the latest bulletins, the most significant development centers around Tropical Storm Alberto, the first named storm of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season. As of the latest NHC advisory, Alberto is located in the western Gulf of Mexico and steadily tracking west-northwest, with sustained winds near 45 mph. The system is forecast to approach the northeastern Mexican coast late Thursday night into Friday morning. While not expected to achieve hurricane strength before landfall, Alberto is producing widespread heavy rainfall across southeastern Texas and northeast Mexico. Flash flood watches are in effect from Corpus Christi to Brownsville, and authorities have urged residents to monitor local updates for possible emergency declarations.

In addition to Alberto, meteorologists continue to monitor a broad area of low pressure a few hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles. This disturbance, designated as Invest 92L, is showing signs of increased organization. The NHC reports a 60 percent chance of tropical development over the next 48 hours. If it consolidates further, it may become the season’s second named storm. Residents in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands have been advised to prepare for increased rainfall and gusty conditions beginning late Friday as the system approaches from the southeast.

Satellite imagery and modeling from NOAA suggest that although the current systems are not expected to reach major hurricane status, warm Atlantic sea-surface temperatures and favorable upper-level winds continue to support active development in the coming weeks. The Weather Channel emphasized that early-season storms like Alberto often signal more robust activity ahead, especially as peak hurricane season approaches in August and September.

Along the southeastern U.S. coast, NOAA also warned of high surf and dangerous rip currents from Florida to the Carolinas, driven by long-period swells generated by distant storm activity. Coastal communities are advised to remain cautious despite clear skies, particularly over the coming weekend.

Looking ahead, forecasters are closely watching conditions in the central tropical Atlantic, where additional easterly waves are expected to emerge off the African coast, potentially seeding future development. Meteorologists will also release updated seasonal forecasts in early July, offering further insights into what is anticipated to be an above-average hurricane season in 2024.
