tropical weather

There is still one trouble spot worth watching but it does not appear to be an issue for the Gulf of Mexico or the U.S. mainland.

A new study published in the Journal Nature suggests that hurricanes are no longer just a coastal problem.

A tropical wave in the Caribbean appears to be taking a path that is very similar to the path Hurricane Eta just took.

Here's the latest track on Tropical Storm Eta plus we have the complete tropical outlook for the next five days.

Two tropical storms and a tropical wave have forecasters at the Hurricane Center busy this morning.

Here's why we don't think Eta will be a major player for Louisiana and the northern Gulf Coast next week.

A potential tropical trouble spot has dissipated in the Caribbean. This means no particular threat to the Gulf of Mexico for at least the next five days.

That area of the ocean has been a historical hot spot for tropical development at this time of year.

The tropics are still not quiet. A new tropical wave is being monitored for development this morning.

The tropical system will likely affect the coastline sometime during the day on Friday.

Each of these systems could have an effect on the northern Gulf Coast's weather later in the week.

Hurricane season 2020 remains quite active with tropical cyclone formation expected later today or early Saturday in the Caribbean Sea.
