Two potent tropical cyclones are spinning off the Southeast US coast across the Western Atlantic Ocean. Tropical Storm Imelda is the closer of the two with 60 mph winds and tracking north of the Bahamas. Hurricane Humberto is a Category 4 storm with 140 mph winds. This is not near land, but being the stronger system, it is dictating how this all behaves.
The two storms will not make US landfall, but they will continue to affect the weather for a few days.
Clouds have spread through Pennsylvania, with rain moving into Maryland as part of this setup. The rain showers will last into Tuesday. The next phase will be growing wind and waves off the coast. As a result, a Gale Warning has been issued up through the Mid-Atlantic coastline as winds may very well gust to tropical storm force over 40 mph.
The peak conditions with wind and waves will be on Tuesday and Wednesday. That forecast map is included below.
The Gale Warning includes the Mid-Atlantic and New Jersey coasts.
A Tropical Storm Warning includes the Florida coast from Miami to Cape Canaveral.
Winds 140 mph
Moving NNW at 13 mph
Winds 60 mph
Moving North at 9 mph
Rain showers are expected to linger through metro Baltimore.
I posted a report earlier about The La Niña Watch. This is expected to be brief and trend back to neutral, which could result in an active and snowy winter.

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I can also make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
