Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 AM EDT Sun Sep 15 2024
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Gordon, located over the central tropical Atlantic Ocean.
Offshore the Southeastern U.S. Coast:
A non-tropical low pressure area has formed along a frontal boundary
a couple of hundred miles off the southeastern U.S. coast and is
producing winds to gale force north of its center. The low is
forecast to move northwestward or northward over the warm waters of
the Gulf Stream toward the coasts of North Carolina and South
Carolina, and it could become a subtropical or tropical storm during
the next day or two if the associated front dissipates and showers
and thunderstorms become sufficiently organized.
Regardless of tropical or subtropical development, the low is
likely to bring gusty winds, heavy rains with the potential for
flash flooding, coastal flooding, and dangerous beach conditions to
portions of the U.S. Southeast and Mid-Atlantic coast during the
next couple of days, and interests in these areas should monitor
the system's progress. Additional information can be found in
products issued by your local National Weather Service Forecast
Office and High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather
Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.

Tropical Storm Gordon Discussion Number 16
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072024
500 AM AST Sun Sep 15 2024
Due to strong westerly shear, deep convection associated with
Gordon is located at least 120 n mi to the east of the exposed
center of circulation. An ASCAT-C pass from last evening revealed
that maximum winds were barely tropical storm force just to the
north of the center, and the latest satellite intensity estimates
suggest Gordon may have weakened further since that time. The
initial intensity is held at 35 kt for now, but additional ASCAT
data should help us re-assess Gordon's maximum winds later this
morning.
Gordon has been moving west-southwestward (255/9 kt), steered by a
low- to mid-level ridge to the north. The cyclone is forecast to
turn westward later today, but the ridge is expected to weaken
during the next few days, which should cause Gordon to slow down
considerably. A mid- to upper-level trough is expected to amplify
northeast of the Leeward Islands by the middle of the week, and
Gordon is likely to respond by slowing down to speeds of less than
5 kt while gradually turning northwestward and then northward on
days 3-5. The updated NHC forecast has been shifted slightly south
of the previous prediction during the first 3 days of the forecast,
trending toward the HFIP Corrected Consensus, and then shows a
slightly sharper recurvature on days 4 and 5.
Continued shear, a dry mid-level atmosphere, and a subsident
upper-level environment are likely to cause Gordon to weaken to a
tropical depression later today. In fact, all of the global models
show the wind field weakening and broadening during the next couple
of days, and it's entirely possible that Gordon could degenerate
into a remnant low at any time if deep convection wanes. If
Gordon survives the next few days, the environment could become a
little more conducive for strengthening toward the end of the
forecast period. The NHC intensity forecast generally follows a
blend of the GFS and ECMWF models, which lie near the lower bound of
the guidance.

That's how it starts: the first raindrops are already there
Hurricanes are tropical cyclones. Danger arises through very high wind speeds,
waves and heavy rainfalls. In Cuba a common word for a hurricane is 'ciclon'. Season is
from May through November. Traditionally, through its well organized system of civil protection Cuba
is better prepared for hurricanes then the USA or other countries of the Caribbean. Cuba suffers less
loss of human life. Is is not safe from substantial material damages though.

Right: typical photo of a hurricane
Thank you for the picture, Andrew (was our guest in
Varadero)
We are frequently asked: How are we supposed to behave as a tourist
when we get surprised on the island?
Two simple rules:
1. Stay home.
2. Follow the orders of the Civil Protection authorities.
All our Casas have a solid construction base, none is made of wood.
Hurricane damages
After the ciclon: Construction materials are paramount
Oficially a hurricane starts when wind speed exceeds 118 Km/hour. But even at 50 Km persons are adviced to seek protection.
