Ed, snow and hurricane fan Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Just thinking, I remember a decade ago Dr. Neil Frank said when he was head of the NHC, they were less likely to name destined to name short lived mid latitude barely tropical systems like Odette or Teresa. (10 plus years ago, obviously he didn't mention Odette or Teresa by name) 1933, with satellites, might have exceeded 2005. But even knocking a few ugly storms off the last few years, it is getting more active. 3 of the 4 most active seasons of the last 100 years since 2005, something is happening. Probably linked to climate warming, but the polar regions should be warming faster than the tropics, from everything I read, and it can't all be warmer SSTs. And why is the Pacific not responding the same way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed, snow and hurricane fan Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Late in the year for CV storms, especially ones that look like they could effect the Lesser Antilles. Oh, has anyone seen the GFS ensembles? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of cat 5's and strong cat 4's is interesting though and seems to be increasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the season shifts to the western Caribbean/SW Atlantic (fitting climo) soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are reasons why it is cyclical but it definitely does seem to be cyclical even on a more localized level. For example, Long Island and New England got hammered with storms in the 1950s to early 60s. Meanwhile not a hurricane has crossed the shore of Long Island in over 35 years. Look at Florida, after the incredibly active 2005 season it went a record 10 years without a major hurricane hitting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems to be fairly cyclic as well, a cluster of high end cat 4 or higher US landfalls happened in the 1920s into the 30s (plus a 150 mph cat 4 in 1919) and again in the 1960s, (Donna, Carla, and Camille) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many opportunities for the central Atlantic ridge to be weakened as whatever develops drives west. That said, the first wave could get shredded a bit by the outflow of Sam and meander its way into the western Caribbean in the long range until it finds a more favorable environment. Again, hadn't looked that much but this is the time of year for that kind of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably linked to climate warming, but the polar regions should be warming faster than the tropics, from everything I read, and it can't all be warmer SSTs. And why is the Pacific not responding the same way? There are very many things attributed to the atlantic being very active right now since 1995. The atlantic goes through a period of 20-30 years of active and inactive tropical activity. There are a ton of global weather patterns that play a big role including as well but that'd take a long time to get into but Africa's weather patterns are a big reason for active and inactive seasons. And like you said warmer SST's also contribute to it either from climate warming or warm cycles that the oceans may be in. For example we're in a +AMO right now since the mid 1990s which was right around this active period started. But yeah there's a lot of things at play lol because if you remember before 1995 things were very quiet for a few decades lol Oh and about the thing you said about 1933 possibly being more active with satellites that's definitely true. Another thing to realize is the Atlantic was in a low activity phase around the time we started heavily using satellites in the 1960s and the active period didn't start until the mid-late 1990s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 For those tracking seasonal ACE we will be exceeding the typical year end value for the Atlantic overnight. With two likely areas of development and Sam ongoing as a major hurricane for the next couple of days, we are likely to end up well above the average by next week. Knowing the frequency of strong October storms in recent years, the 2021 ACE value could be incredibly high by seasons end. Sam is likely to exceed 30 units, as Larry did earlier this year, making these exceptionally high ACE producing storms 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
