Left: Invest 91E. Right: Hurricane Gilma A well-defined low pressure area east-southeast of the Hawaiian Islands is already on the cusp of becoming a tropical cyclone. Given that this system increasingly has environmental and model support for development with a track that takes it perilously close to the Hawaiian islands, we are starting a Lounge on this system at this time. This feature is Invest-tagged 91E, which is a merger of two areas of previously watched disturbances. Invest 91E has become a full-fledged tropical cyclone, TD ONE in the Central Pacific, and the title has been updated accordingly. 2024-08-22-12z 15.4N 140.3W 30 KNOTS Tropical Storm Hone as of the 1100 AM HST Thu Aug 22 2024 Advisory Recon and radar are showing that Hone is now a hurricane. 8-25-24-0715z -Ciel |
