Description
Meteorologist Payton Malone has the latest on a possible Gulf system and an update on Philippe.
Philippe doesn't exactly look like a tropical system thanks to dry air rotating around the western and southern side. This somewhat makes impact forecasts a bit more difficult with location and timing. It will pass over Bermuda as a tropical storm Friday, though the island is already getting the rain and wind. The remnants will then move into Maine and Nova Scotia this weekend.
The NHC is highlighting an area to move off of Africa in the coming days with a low chance for development.
While the NHC is still not highlighting the southern Gulf or Bay of Campeche over the next 7 days, the Climate Prediction Center is after day 7. Long-range models are continuing to hint at possible development by late next week in the Bay of Campeche or southern Gulf. As of now, nothing looks to be a threat and models aren't necessarily developing an organized tropical system. In fact, both the Euro and GFS send a surge of moisture and rainfall northward, which gets lifted along a developing upper trough over New Mexico and W TX. This could bring us rain late next week before another cold front moves through for the following weekend. Still far out, but models in close agreement at this time and seem to have consensus run to run. We could use the rain!
