Good evening.
On the satellite image above you can see Hurricane Jose, TS Maria and TD Lee. Jose should move NE and pass off shore of Cape Cod and Nova Scotia. Hopefully far enough away that they avoid any significant weather. Maria is forecast to strengthen and may threaten the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, see NHC forecast map below. Due to dry air and high pressure over the Gulf of Mexico, moving over Florida (see Water Vapor Loop below) Maria should stay east of Florida. The computer models, bottom diagram, also reflect this. Lee is currently very weak and may dissipate, however it too should pass well east of Florida. There is a wave over Africa which will emerge off the coast in about a week that we'll need to watch.
Hoping for a quiet rest of the season !!!
