Lee
Well, here we go again with another Atlantic hurricane. Presently at Category 3 strength with max sustained winds at 115 mph. This storm is part of the cycling pattern, I did not list this one because of the track, but Gary with Weather 2020, tracks all of the possible hurricanes, has this one on his list.
This storm is related to Hurricane Fiona from last year and it took a very similar track. Take a look.
So many similarities to Lee, it’s amazing. There is even a companion hurricane that pops up directly northeast, just like Fiona from last year. There are a couple of new features that are there that are a part of the new pattern–can you see anything different that will be a part of the new pattern?
New Pattern
There is a big storm that follows a small wave through northern Canada, that will likely take a northern track in October. This could be a big storm for Washington, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, with a second cycle that should swing down to Colorado and may be a strong storm. It is soooo early, but something to watch.
Hurricane List
Let’s take a look at the updated list (click to enlarge). You can scratch off Louisiana date, because the Florida path eliminates that prediction–this was an either-or situation, which we explained with our original forecast May 19th.
Louisiana is NOT off the hook yet. This storm could return next cycle and hit Louisiana October 14-22nd.
There is another Florida possibility on September 29th.
This is not on the list, but I think I should at least mention it. This is a small system that could pop up north of Cuba. The track is difficult to predict. I see two possibilities. A track that splits Cuba and Florida and hits the Gulf Coast (probably strengthen to a hurricane) or, flow up either side of Florida. The latter would probably just be a Tropical storm.

Hawaii is next in the list. That doesn’t mean there will be a long break between possible hurricanes, that simply means I did not see many recurring storms during this period. With the exception of a possible storm that could come thru Honduras or Nicaragua on Sept 17th. That could reach Hurricane strength, but probably a tropical storm at best.
