Here's the first named storm of the 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season! Tropical Storm Arthur officially developed near the middle Texas coast, causing dangerous flooding conditions. Since the center of this storm will move back over land shortly, Arthur should dissipate by Thurs AM.

[Natalie Ferrari @ForecastWithNat]

@realdenny348 The forecast includes both tropical storms and hurricanes. Good question!

[Natalie Ferrari @ForecastWithNat]

NOAA just announced their 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season Outlook, calling for a "Below-Normal" season! Forecasters agree that a developing El Niño pattern is the primary factor driving activity this season. It’s an important reminder that preparedness is key. It only takes one!

[National Hurricane Center @NHC_Atlantic]

#TropicalStormErin forming in the Eastern Atlantic this morning.

[National Hurricane Center @NHC_Atlantic]

NHC will initiate advisories on Tropical Storm Erin, located in the Eastern Tropical Atlantic, just west of the Cabo Verde Islands, at 1100 AM EDT (1500 UTC).

[National Hurricane Center @NHC_Atlantic]

8am EDT Monday 11 Aug -- NHC is currently monitoring 3⃣ features in the Atlantic Basin this morning.

Of these, the system just west of the Cabo Verde Islands (#AL97) has a high chance (90% 🔴) of becoming a tropical cyclone over the next couple of days.

Floridians will see this then yell at an airport about their flight being delayed

Invest 93-L is moving west across the Florida Panhandle this AM. It will hug the coast today, but if this system moves far enough offshore, there's a 40% chance a tropical depression could still form before reaching Louisiana on Thursday, then fully inland by the end of the week.

[Natalie Ferrari @ForecastWithNat]

I'm closely monitoring Invest 93-L, located along the east coast of Florida. It remains disorganized, but will bring rounds of heavy rain across FL and the north-central Gulf this week. There is now a 40% chance a tropical depression could form in the Gulf, moving away from FL.

[Natalie Ferrari @ForecastWithNat]

🌀We are now monitoring a medium (40%) chance of a tropical or subtropical depression to form over the weekend or early next week either near Florida or along the Southeast U.S coast.

🌧️Regardless of development, heavy rainfall and localized flooding remains the biggest impact.

[Natalie Ferrari @ForecastWithNat]

The NHC is giving this hatched area a low 30% chance for tropical or subtropical development as we approach this weekend. Latest model guidance is developing this low east of Florida before drifting north toward the Carolinas. Regardless, expect 4-6" of rainfall through Sunday.

[Natalie Ferrari @ForecastWithNat]

We officially have our first named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, Tropical Storm Andrea.

However, this storm is expected to be very short-lived as this system enters a more hostile environment over the next day or so.

[National Hurricane Center @NHC_Atlantic]

6/24 11am AST: Tropical Storm #Andrea has formed in the Atlantic. It is forecast to weaken and dissipate on Wednesday as it remains over the open ocean.

SpaceX confirms it is standing down from the Ax-4 launch tomorrow to further address the liquid oxygen leak seen during Sunday's static fire test. A new launch date is being determined.

Here's what SpaceX's Bill Gerstenmaier had to say about the leak on Monday👇

Earlier this month, the @NASA_Orion spacecraft was transferred from the Operations and Checkout building to the Multi-Payload Processing Facility, where it will be prepared for stacking on @NASA_SLS.

Check out the journey of its assembly:

10/13/24 8pm Tropical Update
Now is not the time to panic about this shaded orange area.
It is still TOO EARLY to tell where this one will go or how strong it will be, IF it even develops.
Focus on today, and your recovery efforts.
We will keep you updated. #flwx
