Because of the delay, of the NHC forecast predictions of the 2010 Atlantic Hurricane forecasts, I decided to make an offical thread where you guys can discuss/post tropical activity updates mainly in the Atlantic and Pacific.

This thread is only going to be used for general discussion about the 2010 hurricane season.  We'll do individual topics for each storm as mentioned in Martin's post about the new system here.

Yes. Any organized storms or potential ones will have their own discussion. Including: Invests, subtropical storms, tropical storms and of course hurricanes.

Sorry for a slight bumpb, but is this something new? I thought we always talked about storms in the general "Hurricane Central" thread.

Its sort of why I created this subforum.  I thought it would be fun to try something new and more organized! If it doesn't work out we can go back to the way it always was

Small disturbance coming off Africa.

Small disturbance coming off Africa.

ALREADY?! Geez, that's really early!

Why is that so shocking to you? I thought June was the start of hurricane season.

Because it's unusual for tropical waves to be coming off the coast of Africa in June, it's more typical from mid July onward.

Keep in mind of the 05 and 03 hurricane seasons.

Keep in mind of the 05 and 03 hurricane seasons.

Just because it happened before doesn't mean it's not quite unusual.

Record SSTs in the area off the African coast with not too much shear. Juicy area for development.

[toxictwister00]

I think dust has hindered it's development temporarily while coming off the W. African coast, but it might be heading into more favorable area since the dust is not that big of a deal that far out.

I saw that the water temps were around 90°. That's a bit toasty!

[Jonathan]

If this disturbance develops soon, it'll be in a relatively unusual area. Also, I don't think it looks as well as it did yesterday.
