Tropical Depression #1 Becomes Tropical Storm Alex in the Caribbean Sea
Hello to all…
Tropical Depression #1 has become better organized and is now Tropical Storm Alex in the Caribbean Sea. Alex will track across Belize and the Yucatan Peninsula as a tropical storm and will weaken to a tropical depression over land. Alex is then expected to emerge over the Bay of Campeche/Southwest Gulf of Mexico and potentially intensify to Category-1 Hurricane strength with a possible landfall somewhere in Eastern Mexico to perhaps the Southern Texas border as we move into the Wednesday/Thursday timeframe.
At this time, Alex is expected to remain sufficiently below hurricane strength where net activation for the first landfall is unlikely though the VoIP Hurricane Net Management Team will continue to closely monitor the progress of Alex. As we get into later this week, VoIP Hurricane Net activation will be possible for Alex’s potential to strengthen into a hurricane and make landfall in Eastern Mexico up to the southern border of Texas as we move into the Wednesday to Thursday timeframe.
Advisories from the National Hurricane Center can be see via the VoIP Hurricane Net web site off the Main Menu under Atlantic Tropical Products at the following link:
