ATLANTIC TROPICS

  • High chances of development in the Yucatan Peninsula. This has been a hotspot for formation all season. NHC gives chances at 70% in the next 48 hours.

  • Chance of strong to severe storms in the Mountain West and the Northern Plains today
  • Drier conditions for the Northwest

WORLD WEATHER

  • Tropical Storm Usagi in the Western Pacific is one to watch with expectations of strengthening and on course to impact Taiwan as a strong typhoon.
  • A tropical depression along the coast of central Vietnam drenching the nation.
  • Manuel still being classified as a depression as he meanders in the Baja Mexico Peninsula
  • Storms in much of continental Europe from several low pressure systems
  • Same story with most showers staying in Southeast Australia

EARTHQUAKES

  • There were no earthquakes rated at or above M6 yesterday or so far today.

SPACE WEATHER

  • The sun is alive finally when a C3.9 solar flare blasted from the newcomer Sunspot 1846 on the sun's eastern limb. More sunspot regions have been numbered as well. Things may be picking up... we'll have to see. M-class flare chances, though, remains at 1%.
