Tropics Update

Hello to all….

The Tropics are becoming more active. Hurricane Florence has moved away from Bermuda and is headed for extratropical transition in the North Atlantic Ocean but Tropical Storm Gordon has formed and another system off Africa has the potential to develop into a Tropical Depression as we are in the peak of hurricane season.

Tropical Storm Gordon is over the open waters of the Atlantic and has the potential to become the third hurricane of the 2006 season. Luckily, Gordon is expected to stay in the open ocean and recurve out to sea missing all land areas including Bermuda. The VoIP Hurricane Net Management team will monitor the progress of this system to make sure this track continues.

A new tropical wave off of Africa is getting better organized and the potential exists for a tropical depression to form from that system. Further updates on this system will be provided if it develops.

Thanks to all for their continued support of the VoIP Hurricane Net!
