Welcome: Good morning all across the land and sea. Welcome to today’s exciting, terrific, super-duper, Berkshire Weather Post! Ok, I think I over dramatized that.

Tropical Forecast: We have four areas to watch.

Tropical Forecast: We have four areas to watch. 

1. Hurricane Sam is a category 4 and nearly a category 5. Most models agree that Sam will stay out to sea. However there are still a few more days and the models can change. Also there is still a possibility Sam could directly impact the US. We will need to continue monitoring it.

3. A tropical wave will have good conditions for development. This tropical wave will move off of Africa tomorrow. I give it a medium chance of development.

Notable Amounts: None.

Anything to Mention: Have an amazing day.

Welcome: Good morning. We have some better weather moving in. We are watching to see if Hurricane Sam will impact the northeast. Right now it seems not that likely however if the key players come into alignment we could be dealing with a major hurricane in a week or more. I will keep you all updated on that as Sam gets closer. Now everyone’s favorite: Happy Hour! Oh wait I am not a bartender, I am a weather reporter. Well anyway here’s the forecast…

3. The Remnants of Peter have disorganized showers and thunderstorms. This area is southwest of Bermuda. I give it a small chance of development.

Tropical Forecast: We have four areas to watch. 

1. Tropical Depression Eighteen turned into Hurricane Sam. Sam is expected to turn into a major hurricane. We will have to watch for potential impacts to the east coast. However, it is to far out right now to know much.

2. The Remnants of Odette are a non-tropical storm with limited shower and thunderstorm activity. It is over 600 miles northwest of the Azores. I give it a medium chance of redevelopment.

3. A surface and upper level trough is producing some showers and thunderstorms. It is over 100 miles east of Bermuda. I give it a small chance of development.

Tropical Forecast: We have four areas to watch. 

1. Tropical Depression Peter is north of Puerto Rico. Peter will continue to weaken. Little to no threat to the US. However Bermuda could see some heavy rain and gusty winds, if Peter’s track shifts to the west.

3. A non-tropical storm may become subtropical or even tropical. This storm is very far west of the Azores. I give it a medium chance of development.

6 To 10 Day Forecast: Read Below.

TEMPERATURE: Average.

PRECIPITATION: Average.

Tropical Forecast: We have four areas to watch. 

1. Tropical Storm Peter is north of the Virgin Islands. Peter is taking in much wind shear which is causing it not to strengthen. Little threat to mainland US.

2. Tropical Storm Rose is far northwest of the Cabo Verde Islands. Weakening has started and is expected to continue. Rose will stay in the Atlantic and is no threat to US.

3. The Remnants of Odette have become a non-tropical storm. As this storm moves south into warm water some tropical characteristics will be possible, but after it will move north and chances will end. I give it a small chance of development.

4. A tropical wave is becoming organized. It is south of the Cabo Verde Islands. I give it a high chance of development.

Notable Amounts: None.

Anything to Mention: Have an amazing day.

1. Tropical Storm Peter will be passing north of the Leeward Islands soon. Peter is fighting off wind shear. Also the system looks to stay away from the US.

2. Tropical Storm Rose is west of the Cabo Verde Islands. Rose will eventually turn back to a tropical depression. At the moment the system does not seem a threat to the US. 

3. The Remnants of Odette have turned into a non-tropical low pressure system of storm force intensity. These remnants are expected to move southeastward. I give it a small chance of development.
