RECAP "Hurricane Dorian: A True Tropical Beast"
**No areas of concern across the Atlantic that would affect the U.S. or any other land areas **
There's some "disturbed" weather over the far Southwest Caribbean. Proximity to land should limit much development.
Overall... the pattern over the Atlantic Basin looks a lot like late fall. Frequent cold fronts will push farther & farther south & east during the next one to two weeks thanks to a rather persistent & further south development of a series of upper level troughs. Low pressure will occasionally develop along the fronts over the Atlantic but no indication - at this time - of any tropical development.
Nov. is the last "official" month of the Atlantic hurricane season. Tropical cyclone origins - since 1851 - favor the very warm Western Caribbean & the Central Atlantic. Only two hurricanes have ever made a U.S. landfall in Nov. - both in Florida: "Yankee" on Nov. 4, 1935 - at Miami..... & "Kate" in the Panhandle on Nov. 22, 1985.
Other notable storms include "loopy" Gordon in 1994... Lenny in 1999... Paloma in 2008 & Ida in 2009.
