Invest 95 Tropical Disturbance
Crown Weather | The tropical disturbance in the eastern Caribbean has been designated Invest 95-L by the National Hurricane Center. This system will be the main concern for at least the next 7 to 10 days as environmental conditions are favorable for development and I suspect that this will be our next tropical storm (Matthew) by the end of this week or at the very latest this weekend.
Satellite imagery this morning has shown some increase in organization compared to 24 hours ago. Pretty much all of the global model guidance forecast that this will develop into a tropical cyclone over the coming days. Indications are that this system should track westward over the next couple of days and be located in the western Caribbean by about Friday. The GFS and European models forecast a landfall in Honduras and Nicaragua on Saturday before it turns northward into the northwestern Caribbean early next week. Both the European and GFS models forecast an impact on the Florida Peninsula on either September 30th or October 1st.
The Canadian model forecasts this system to track along the north coast of Honduras from Friday night through Saturday night before impacting Belize and the eastern Yucatan Peninsula on Sunday and Monday. The Canadian model ultimately forecasts this to track into the Gulf of Mexico next Wednesday and forecasts this to come ashore along the Mississippi and Alabama coastline next Thursday night or next Friday morning.
