Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 PM EDT Mon Aug 11 2025
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Erin, located over the eastern tropical Atlantic several
hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands.
Northwestern Atlantic:
A non-tropical area of low pressure located a few hundred miles
south-southeast of Nova Scotia, Canada is producing disorganized
shower and thunderstorm activity to the west of its center. Some
limited tropical or subtropical development is possible over the
next day or two as the low drifts westward near the relatively warm
waters of the Gulf Stream. By the middle of this week, the system
is expected to move northward over cooler waters, ending its chances
for further tropical development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.
Central Atlantic:
A weak surface trough of low pressure located over the central
Atlantic is interacting with an upper-level disturbance, producing
scattered disorganized showers. Development of this system is not
expected as it drifts generally northward over the next day or two.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...near 0 percent.
Northeastern Gulf:
A surface trough in the north-central Gulf is associated with a
broad area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. While
development of this system is not anticipated before it moves inland
on Tuesday, locally heavy rainfall could produce flash flooding
across portions of the Florida Panhandle, southern Alabama, southern
Mississippi and southeastern Louisiana over the next day or so. For
more information on the rainfall hazards related to this system,
please see products issued by your local National Weather Service
forecast office.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...near 0 percent.

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Erin was located near latitude 17.6 North, longitude 32.3 West. Erin is moving toward the west near 22 mph (35 km/h), and this motion is expected to continue for the next several days with a gradual slowdown in forward speed. Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual strengthening is forecast over the next several days, and Erin is expected to become a hurricane later this week. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- None. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 500 AM AST. $$ Forecaster Hagen

Issued at 1100 PM AST Mon Aug 11 2025081 WTNT45 KNHC 120233 TCDAT5 Tropical Storm Erin Discussion Number 3 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052025 1100 PM AST Mon Aug 11 2025 After struggling earlier during the diurnal convective minimum, a large convective burst has formed and persisted over the center of Erin for the past several hours, and a recent GPM microwave pass from 11/2237 UTC confirmed that the low-level center is underneath this burst. The latest subjective intensity estimates range from 35-45 kt, and the objective intensity estimates from UW-CIMSS have crept up slightly to the 40-45 kt range. The initial intensity is held at 40 kt, which might be a tad conservative. Erin continues moving quickly westward, with the latest motion estimated at 275/18 kt. This general motion with a gradual decrease in forward speed is expected over the next 2 to 3 days as the tropical storm is steered by a mid-level subtropical ridge to its north. Towards the end of the forecast period, the ridge should erode some, which would allow Erin to turn toward the west-northwest and gain some latitude. However, there are some differences in the global models as to how significant the weakness in the ridge will be, and this will affect how far north the cyclone gets by day 5. Some of the recent model solutions are a bit farther to the left (or southwest) at the end of the forecast period. The NHC forecast is nudged only very slightly to the left at days 4-5, and now lies slightly to the north of the latest consensus aids. Based on the model spread, the confidence in the track forecast appears to be about average. Erin is expected to remain in low vertical wind shear conditions for the next 3-4 days. The thermodynamic environment is less favorable in the short-term, with sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) around 26-27C, and stable stratocumulus clouds noted just to the west and northwest of Erin. Only slow strengthening is forecast during the next 1 to 2 days until Erin reaches warmer water. A faster rate of intensification is anticipated after that time. The latest NHC forecast is very similar to the previous one, and lies slightly below the intensity consensus for the first 36 h. Thereafter, the NHC intensity forecast is near the middle of the intensity guidance envelope. It is possible that vertical wind shear could increase in 4 to 5 days, but that will depend on where the upper-level ridge is situated in relation to Erin, which is uncertain at this time. KEY MESSAGES: 1. It is still too early to determine what impacts, if any, Erin may bring to the northern Leeward Islands, Bermuda, or the east coast of the United States. As we approach the climatological peak of the hurricane season, it is an opportune time to ensure your preparedness plans are in place.
