The 2024 hurricane season begins June 1 and ends November 30, but the NHC will start issuing tropical weather updates on May 15 since
in recent years storms
have been forming earlier.
More on hurricane names is here.

CURRENT SXM AND US- RELATED SATELLITE IMAGES
**********************************************
Current Weather Images: All maps are
satellite images, updated as frequently as every half hour, courtesy of
NOAA unless otherwise noted.
If you see no images, the NOAA server is
down.
IMPORTANT! If you come back in a couple of hours to recheck these
images to see where storms are moving (and how fast), when
the image
loads check the upper left corner. It tells you the date and Greenwich
Mean Time (GMT) of the image (time + Zulu, indicating
GMT). If the
time hasn't changed since you last viewed the image, click your
browser's REFRESH button. Then you'll get the new image.
(In the
name of efficiency, browsers store files -- even ones which update
around the clock.)
Again, if an image fails to appear here, the
weather
site is down.

Storms Crossing Africa East to West . . .
During the Cape Verde Season (mid August to mid October),
Significant Atlantic Tropical Waves Are Born Here
Image may not appear
Tropical Waves Exiting the African Coast
During the "Cape Verde" (NHC now calls it Cabo Verde) season from August through mid October, this
is where storms threatening SXM usually come from. Waves move east to
west just north of the "Intertropical Convergence Zone" (ITCZ). Focus on
storms between 10 and 20 degrees north.... Starting in late July,
"shearing"
winds over the tropical Atlantic begin to diminish, heralding
the beginning of the Cape Verde season. Its peak is September. Satellite
photos update constantly.
Atlantic Basin Water Vapor Imagery
Why is this significant? Storms encountering dry air tend to lose
strength; those traveling in moist air can maintain or gain strength,
depending on other conditions.
