It’s only early May – less than a month from the official start of the 2015 Atlantic hurricane season – and we are already talking about possible tropical or subtropical development.

As if this morning, there is a broad area of cloud cover and showers associated with this disturbance (see visible satellite image below). The GFS, shown above (courtesy of ...

EYE OF THE STORM. Saturday, November 9, 2013. So You want to chase a tropical cyclone? ANYONE that wants to chase a hurricane/typhoon/cyclone should watch this. This is as real as it gets!
