BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2022 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — The weird weather pattern that is the 2022 Atlantic Hurricane Season continues with the death of Hurricane Danielle, the weakening of Hurricane Earl, and the now unlikely continued development of two tropical waves east of Florida. It’s a dramatically different picture than Thursday morning, when both waves showed likely growth.

Forecasters are still predicting an “above normal” hurricane season, which means more could be just around the corner. For now, here is the Friday morning Tropical Weather Outlook from the National Hurricane Center:

Tropical Weather Outlook NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 200 AM EDT Fri Sep 9 2022

For the North Atlantic… Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

Active Systems: The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane Earl, located about 100 miles southeast of Bermuda.

  1. Central Tropical Atlantic: A gale-force low pressure system located about 1200 miles east of the Leeward Islands continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms that are displaced well to the northeast of the circulation center due to strong upper-level winds. Although the upper-level winds are expected to remain strong, the low still has some opportunity during the next day or so to become a short-lived tropical cyclone while moving toward the west-northwest at about 15 mph into the central subtropical Atlantic. For more information on this system, including gale warnings, please refer to the High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service.
  • Formation chance through 48 hours…medium…40 percent.
  • Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.
  1. Eastern Tropical Atlantic: A tropical wave located several hundred miles south of the Cabo Verde Islands is producing a disorganized area of showers and thunderstorms. Development of this system, if any, is expected to be slow to occur while it moves westward or west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic through the middle of next week.
  • Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
  • Formation chance through 5 days…low…20 percent.
