Aug. 13, 2017 — Tropical depression #8 has become - as expected - tropical storm "Gert" east of the Bahamas....
.... NO significant impacts for NE Fl./SE Ga.....
T.D. #8 has strengthened into tropical storm "Gert" with satellite data showing decent outflow in the upper levels + some banding features at the surface. No change in the expected sharp turn to the north then northeast thanks to a weak but still significant upper level trough + surface cold front along the east coast of the U.S. This set-up will keep the tropical cyclone well to the east of Jacksonville/Fl. & the entire U.S. coastline + well to the west & north of Bermuda.
There will be a bit of an uptick in wave action & rip current risk early in the upcoming week from Florida to Chesapeake Bay.

A telling map below -- the Velocity Potential Anomalies -- shows widespread & strong "upward" vertical motion over much of the Atlantic Basin. This kind of pattern often correlates with an increase in tropical activity. I would not be at all surprised to see several named storms develop over the Atlantic Basin within the next couple of weeks. As we head toward the peak of the hurricane season, one should always be prepared!

Tropical depression #8 east of the Bahamas....
.... NO significant impacts for NE Fl./SE Ga.....
The fairly active tropical wave ('99-L') of the past 10 days or so has finally organized into tropical depression #8 & will soon be tropical storm "Gert". No change in the expected sharp turn to the north then northeast thanks to a weak but still significant upper level trough + surface cold front along the east coast of the U.S. This set-up will keep the tropical cyclone well to the east of Jacksonville/Fl. & the entire U.S. coastline.
