How to use this page:

The title of each of the figures below is linked to the page where the information originates.

Since I write and post early in the day and generally do not update the page until the next morning; by clicking on the link, it allows you, the viewer, to get the latest information.

This is not only convenient but allows you to track weather events such as cold fronts and hurricanes from a single web page.

In addition, in the right column is a very useful widget. It is a trip planner...yesteryear's weather at a glance.This widget lets you check historic weather for your trip dates.

The Tropical Weather Outlook
The next cold front is forecast to reach the NW Gulf of Mexico today.
During the past several hours...showers and thunderstorms have increased and become more concentrated near the well-defined center of a non-tropical low pressure system...located about 740 miles east-southeast of Bermuda. Satellite and ship data indicate that this system is producing gale-force winds...and environmental conditions are becoming more conducive for a subtropical or
tropical storm to form later today or on Tuesday. This system has a high chance...90 percent...of becoming a subtropical or tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours....and a high chance...90 percent...of becoming a subtropical or tropical cyclone during the next 5 days while the system moves northward to northwestward at around 10 mph.
This system is not a threat to the Bay Islands.
The SAL, has again increased slightly in area. See Figs. 9 and 9a.
