tropical weather

Some of the preseason hurricane projections are out and they do not bode well for a quiet summer along the coast.

There is still one trouble spot worth watching but it does not appear to be an issue for the Gulf of Mexico or the U.S. mainland.

A new study published in the Journal Nature suggests that hurricanes are no longer just a coastal problem.

A tropical wave in the Caribbean appears to be taking a path that is very similar to the path Hurricane Eta just took.

Two tropical storms and a tropical wave have forecasters at the Hurricane Center busy this morning.

Here's why we don't think Eta will be a major player for Louisiana and the northern Gulf Coast next week.

That area of the ocean has been a historical hot spot for tropical development at this time of year.

The tropical system will likely affect the coastline sometime during the day on Friday.

Each of these systems could have an effect on the northern Gulf Coast's weather later in the week.

A tropical depression is now likely to form in the Caribbean or the southern Gulf of Mexico by this weekend.
