Gulf Coast Hurricane Tracker

A single source reference on tropical weather predictions. With a traditional focus on the upper Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast we've maintained links to track all Atlantic Basin, Caribbean and eastern Pacific storm systems. We are now expanding our view to tropical storms throughout the world intending to be a comprehensive global storm tracking resource.

Tropical Storm Fiona forms in the Atlantic

Tropical Storm Fiona formed today in the North Atlantic west of the Cape Verde Islands in the wake of Major Hurricane Earl. Fiona had some difficulty organizing into a tropical storm due to dry air coming from Africa. Projections are that Fiona will remain a tropical storm at least through the rest of the week.



Meanwhile, Danielle continues to weaken as she moves towards the north and is now a Tropical Storm.
