A clipper heading for NE Tuesday and early indications of something bigger in NY/NE a week from tonight into Monday.


Latest indicates NY may be a near miss may while eastern NE may be brushed.


Most models predict glancing blow at best for Sunday in NY/NE.


Models are pushing the weekend storm off the coast of NY/NE. Currently a glancing blow at best but stay tuned.


Keep an eye out for Saturday night into Sunday morning in NY/NE for possible snowstorm. Models differ at this early time; could be a near miss.


Melissa still heading for Jamaica at Cat 4 and then Cuba at Cat 2.


Melissa could be a Cat 4 when it travels near Jamaica and Cat 3 over eastern Cuba.


Models still diverge on Melissa. Either Haiti or eastern Cuba in line for direct hit.


As suggested, TS Melissa has formed in the central Caribbean; some models have it headed for Haiti and the DR.


Watch for a tropical depression in central Caribbean mid week.


Humberto is gone; Imelda (Cat 2) still moving due east.


Imelda is now a hurricane; she and Humberto are both Cat 1 and moving away from the coast to the northeast.


Both areas have developed. Hurricane Humberto (Cat 4) currently looks to remain off the coast as it moves to the northeast. T S Imelda looks to turn sharply eastward after coming close enough to Florida to give it some wind and rain.


Two areas of interest in the Caribbean expected to develop this week,


Hurricane Gabrielle heading east across the Atlantic.


That area in the mid tropical Atlantic is now TS Gabrielle. Drifting slowly northwest for now.


Another good chance for a tropical storm forming in the middle of the tropical Atlantic this week.


Watch for a tropical depression to form mid tropical Atlantic in the next few days.


The TS is named Fernand and is expected to remain safely out to sea.


Expect the next TS south of Bermuda later today.
