Hurricane Season 2021 (2 Viewers)

looks like zero rain tonight, yet, i have awoken to a loud arse crackling in the sky.
 
The latest from Jeff Linder.

From Jeff Lindner a while ago:

At 400pm a tropical storm warning has been issued for the US Gulf coast from Intracoastal City, LA to the FL/AL state line.

Both satellite derived wind products and the early afternoon USAF mission confirm that 92L has a broad low pressure center over the south-central Gulf of Mexico with winds generally in the 25 kt range. The current organizational structure is that below what is classifiable as a tropical cyclone, however global models continue to insist that a tropical cyclone will form in the next 12-24 hours and make landfall along the central US Gulf coast. Given the proximity of the system to landfall on the US Gulf coast, the potential tropical cyclone advisories along with tropical storm warnings have been issued with this system. Besides now an official product from the National Hurricane Center, there has been little change to the forecasting thinking today and the good model consensus continues to take the developing tropical system well east of SE TX with most of the weather and impacts focused east of the center toward the central and eastern US Gulf coast.

How long has "Potential Tropical Cyclone" been a thing?

since 2017

It's used to warn coastal residents of dangerous storm surges . The storm may not make it to TS status,but can still produce dangerous flooding.
 
We should rename Louisiana to Cone of Uncertainty during hurricane season.
You know how we're always wanting to give our defense cool hurricane nicknames like Category 5 and stuff like that? Over the years, we should have been calling it the Cone of Uncertainty Defense.
