TROPICAL STORM BERTHA FORMS IN THE ATLANTIC!!!!!!!

Tropical Storm Atlantic formed in the Atlantic this evening. Tropical Storm Watches and Warnings have been placed in the islands. TS Watches are in effect for Puerto Rico. TS Warnings are in effect for the Guadeloupe Islands as well as for Barbados. At the current track it is going WNW at 20 MPH as of 1 AM CDT Friday. It should continue to go NW, up until Sunday-Monday when it'll shift to the North. As of right now US Coastlines are NOT under any TS Watches or Warnings, BUT they should remain on alert throughout this weekend and especially going into Next week. HOWEVER, the GFS models are showing that this will miss NC coast lines and shift Northeast.

Here is a map I made of the project path, According to the latest GFS Models.

 

Even though that the GFS Models show this avoiding the coasts, people across the US Coastlines should remain on alert, as Hurricanes and Tropical Storms have been known to make erratic moves in their paths. TWNS will be active, with expert analysis with Senior Forecaster, Matt Petrulli and our mass team of experts, providing you live wall coverage of #TropicalStormBertha.

Hello folks the NHC is giving a 80% for a Disturbance to devlop into a Tropical Cyclone. Models are showing that this will most likely become Bertha and affect the Lesser Antilles by this Weekend. It is to far out to call a Threat to the East Coast. This is your Senior Met Matt Petrulli. Have a nice Day.

The First Major Tropical Storm of the Season.

Florida and much of the East Coast are preparing for what appears to be the first major tropical storm of the season, known as "Arthur", so Arthur Spooner from the King of Queens and Arthur Read from the PBS show, Arthur get their own very own hurricane, ha-ha. But this is no laughing matter, this storm should track right across the eastern half of North Carolina on Friday just in time for 4th of July festivities in that area. According to the National Hurricane Center, this storm should be expected to become a Hurricane by 2 PM Thursday afternoon. GFS Models showing that the storm should make landfall in North Carolina by Friday Morning, however some feeder bands of Arthur could reach South Carolina as early as Thursday night. At this time it should remain offshore away from NYC, however it is possible for some high waves to reach NYC Shores. TWNS will be active throughout the next few days because of #TropicalStormArthur. We will keep YOU informed, ahead of the Storm.
