In this video I describe how #ClimateChange can cause relatively weak tropical storms and hurricanes to develop into dangerous Category 4 & 5 hurricanes (tropical cyclones).

If you live in hurricane-prone areas, you know that preparation is key. With the off-season upon us, it's the perfect time to focus on getting ready for the upcoming weather change. https://lnkd.in/eeZMYr_R

Tropical Storm Alberto is developing in the Gulf of Mexico. Here are a couple of links to help you prepare for the storm. As always, make sure you are your family have a plan to stay safe.

According to the Department of Homeland Security, walking, swimming, or driving through flood waters is never safe when hurricanes strike. If you’re in a flooded area, turn around and find a safe and elevated area. Six inches of fast-moving water can knock a person down, while one foot of moving water is capable of sweeping away vehicles.

Hurricane Beryl is heading to North of Mexico or maybe also Texas. It is expected to intensify before landfall. In the temperature map, we can se the temperatures are higher close to shore. There has been many days where the temperatures here could have been reduced by using our technology.

Atmospheric G2 is closely monitoring the latest water vapor satellite imagery which shows a broad circulation in the upper layers of the atmosphere located over the southeastern Gulf and down through the far western Caribbean. I would expect the National Hurricane Center to upgrade this tropical system by this weekend as it gradually moves northwestward from the western Caribbean to the southwestern Gulf of Mexico (Bay of Campeche). Long-range weather models track the tropical system on a similar path as Tropical Storm Alberto into Mexico.  

Mark Sudduth in this video reports ~80% likelihood of La Niña arriving this summer with the pattern fully set for Sep24 which has historically seen the peak of Atlantic Hurricane & Tropical Storm activity. According to the NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, during La Niña, westerly winds high in the atmosphere weaken. This results in an expanded area of low vertical wind shear, allowing more and stronger hurricanes to form.

The track of relatively cooler seawater clearly showing after passage of Hurricane Beryl over the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico. Mixing with cooler water because of the heavy winds causes this (temporary) effect.
