According to the latest outlook from Colorado State University meteorologists, tropical storm activity in the first week of September is expected to be below average. While conditions in the western Caribbean and southern Gulf of Mexico may be more favorable, overall environmental conditions are not conducive for tropical cyclone activity in the next 7 days. However, the forecasters anticipate that conditions will become more favorable for tropical cyclone activity by the middle of September.
The forecast still predicts an above-average Atlantic hurricane season, with six major hurricanes expected out of 23 named storms. These major hurricanes are projected to have wind speeds exceeding 111 miles per hour (179 km/h) out of a total of 12 hurricanes.
