Wow, this year’s storm season has only just started today and it’s already up to two named systems with Barry being announced by the NHC at 5 PM today.
From the <a href=”http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2007/al02/al022007.discus.001.shtml?” target=””_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>5 PM discussion:
DEEP CONVECTION HAS DEVELOPED NEAR THE CENTER DURING THE PAST HOUR AND THE STRONGEST WINDS ARE LOCATED NEAR THE CENTER…SUPPORTING A TROPICAL CLASSIFICATION. BARRY COULD RETAIN SOME NON-TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS. THE CYCLONE IS EMBEDDED WITHIN A STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY SHEAR AND IS HEADING TOWARD COOLER WATERS. THEREFORE…NO SIGNIFICANT STRENGTHENING IS INDICATED BEFORE IT REACHES THE COAST. BARRY SHOULD BECOME EXTRATROPICAL BETWEEN 24 AND 36 HOURS.
Are you ready?
