@iCyclone Or you could head in the opposite direction and come and chase Kirk in the UK!

[Julian Heming @77BlueSky77]

@iCyclone Sounds like it is best to leave given the uncertainty. Also the majority of the ensemble tracks seem to be to the east of Panacea. A contracting eye could make it a hard chase. Trust you make the right choice.

@VTopouzoglou @MetJam_ Those two Tiddington PWSs currently sitting at 197mm and 172mm for the day. https://t.co/W0Xqm3LHLR
More than 50 PWSs in the Oxford area reported more than 100mm with several in the 140-190mm range

@BMcNoldy One of the vagaries of NHC issuing advisories at intermediate hours is that Francine peaked at cat 2 85 knots at 21Z , but the 6-hourly bdeck data I presume you used shows a peak of cat 1 80 knots.

There seems to be confusion as to which low has been named #StormOlivia by IPMA (Portuguese Met Service). IPMA chart shows it is the low near Ireland on Friday. The deeper low following on Saturday is as yet unnamed.

8 tropical cyclones ranging from tropical depression to category 5 hurricane strength have made landfall this week 👇

[Julian Heming @77BlueSky77]

@iCyclone It’s coming your way!

[Julian Heming @77BlueSky77]

@BMcNoldy If the latest GFS run is to be believed Philippe alone will produce at least another 15 named storm days!

[Julian Heming @77BlueSky77]

@fergieweather And in East Devon too.

@wxjerdman A previous Hurricane Dora in 1999 came very close to achieving this feat. Became a hurricane in the EPac and was downgraded to a tropical storm just 0.2 degrees from the Dateline.

[Julian Heming @77BlueSky77]

@JenBartram Not quite. Storm Francis was named by the Met Office on 24 August 2020.

@joe_oliver This is actually a tributary of the River Otter which enters the Otter a couple of hundred yards further down. It is normally a small stream which flows through the pub gardens.

Solar eclipse seen casting a shadow across the newly formed first tropical cyclone of the northern hemisphere season - Tropical Storm #Sanvu in the western Pacific Ocean.

33 days after first being named and 15 days since its first landfall over #Mozambique, Cyclone #Freddy is very slowly moving onshore over Mozambique for the second time.

@philklotzbach There has already been a sudden uptick in the Nino3.4 index in the last few days indicating weakening of the La Niña might already be underway.
