Tropical Storm Chantal Forms in the Open Atlantic

3:30 PM EST 22 August 2019 Update
We're now tracking 98L over the Bahamas, with a 30% chance for development. Looks good on satellite today, but hopefully will stay offshore before it develops. Recon may investigate tomorrow.

10:30 PM AST 20 August 2019 Update
Invest 97L rapidly organized throughout the day (and night) while heading east out to sea, and has become the fourth Tropical Cyclone and third named storm of the 2019 Atlantic Hurricane Season. No threat to land for the foreseeable future, if ever.
-Ciel


The 2PM Outlook shows a 20% chance for development in the system in the east Atlantic later this week as it moves toward Hispaniola and later the Bahamas,there is several days to watch as the system develop, which isn't expected until it gets north of the Caribbean islands. This system is being tracked as invest 95L.


It will most likely stay east of Florida, but the forecasting models seem to behind the curve on the current state of this system, so it's wise to monitor it closely. See the forecast lounge for more speculation on this system. The overall pattern suggests any systems that develop in early August will likely curve away from the US.

Gulfstream IV is sampling eastern Gulf and heading across middle of the State
right now. Helpful Data when or if 95 develops.

Convection North of Puerto Rico looking very healthy this morning although the system appears severely tilted to the NE with the broad vorticity center headed off to the southern coast of Hispaniola. Hard to tell, from Satellite if there is any low level spin under the convective blob. Next 24 hours should tell a lot. Shear decreasing closer to the Bahamas.

Eh. I think sometimes TD is used instead of tropical disturbance.

Hopefully the wave off of Africa will blow. About time for the CV season to kick off.

97L

97L is back up to 40% convection has been firing around a decent circulation, and at times, a small CDO, hope they name it and not let it get away.

Re: Tropical Storm Chantal Forms in the Open Atlantic

The radar recording of the bahamas low, over florida, is cool, i have not watched time lapse of embryo cyclone under shear as it moves along on radar, and near florida. I have watched them on satellite, and looked at radar from NWS and watched CFHC time lapse of stronger better put together systems. Set speed to max.
