Start watching again peeps - this looks like a Caribbean Sea storm

This is looking ominous



Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Sun Sep 26 2021

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
Sam, located about 850 miles east-southeast of the northern Leeward
Islands.

A tropical wave is expected to move off the west coast of Africa on
Monday. Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for
gradual development thereafter, and a tropical depression could form
by midweek while the system moves westward to west-northwestward at
10 to 15 mph over the far eastern tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.

A broad area of low pressure is expected to form over the eastern or
central tropical Atlantic early this week, to the west of the
tropical wave that will be moving off the coast of Africa.
Thereafter, environmental conditions are forecast to support some
development of this disturbance, and a tropical depression could
form by late this week while it moves westward at 5 to 10 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...50 percent.

I'm hoping the cold fronts and dry winds in the mid U.S. region knock development down. Of any new storms anyway. Or the storms get steered to the New England coast, Delaware northward..

I don't want anyone to suffer the effects of a hurricane but that's how I read the cards.

I’m going there next week. I guess nobody wants a hurricane in their neighborhood.
