Tropical Storm Bill


Recommended Posts

Is there a name as there is regarding interaction between two tropical cyclones (Fujiwhara effect) for the interactions between troughs/fronts and cyclones before phasing?  I really noticed this with Arthur last year and this maybe moreso, that the presence of a system moving to the east seems to help the system organize, similar to water rushing out on shore as a wave moves in, but of course with different dimensions of fluid dynamics.

A rather sharp turn poleward appear to have started. The current weak trough to it's west it's imparting westerly shear and entraining dry air on it's western semicircle. This same trough is weakening the ridge that's steering Bill and will allow to start the baroclinic process the models have been forecasting in a day or two after it moves to a more favorable position to the NE of the cyclone.

Everyone wants to see the Erin redox. Don't know if it will play out that way but certainly a lot of rain for N TX and OK.

Roughly-compiled 72-hour loop from 14:45 on June 14 through 14:15 on June 17. I'll process a full-res version at some point.

 

This imagery is excellent to have, thank you!!  for typical systems, this type of satellite history is usually not distributed by third party or major weather groups or agencies, it just isn't their tendency.  So, it depends on boards like this to produce and distribute the images.  :)
