    Nadine, Oscar form in the Atlantic

Tropical update
Nadine, Oscar form in the Atlantic

Hurricane season is not over and in less than 12 hours, there are two newly named tropical systems, one in the western Caribbean and another just north of the Dominican Republic.

Our WeatherRadar shows Nadine is about to make landfall near Belize City as a tropical storm. Although this system will dissipate quickly, its moisture will linger longer, bringing heavy rains to southern Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. This region could experience landslides and mudslides throughout the weekend.

Tropical Storm Oscar formed just north of the Dominican Republic and intensified into a hurricane in the early afternoon on Saturday. Its intensity will fluctuate between hurricane and tropical storm until mid-next week. This system will be slightly erratic through the weekend and next week.

First, it will move west, then to the southwest, and luckily, a cold front exiting the United States will pull it back to the north and away from the U.S. Nonetheless, southern Cuba can expect heavy rains. This is bad news for a country that has recently experienced a widespread power outage. It is not weather-related, but it will cause more danger.

The terminology you must knowread more

Keep in mind that hurricane season runs through November 30. Although more fronts are pushing through the continental U.S., which helps the system curve away from the nation, you should still monitor closely if a system develops close enough between fronts.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
