We are now a week after the climatological peak of Atlantic Hurricane Season. Conditions are slowly becoming more active in the Atlantic with three areas to monitor. First, Tropical Storm Gabrielle is in the Central Atlantic, and it is likely to strengthen in the coming days as it gets very close to the island of Bermuda.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-17 205557-1758164181048.png">Next, we have two areas of low chances of development in the far Eastern Atlantic near Africa. Environmental conditions aren't great for the short term for either tropical wave because of Saharan dust. However, we will continue to keep an eye on these areas too.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-17 201911-1758163020086.png"><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/New Baron Video 3-1758140698761.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video>Do not let your guard down! September is historically the peak of hurricane season, and ocean conditions remain favorable for additional development. However, the NHC urges residents along the Atlantic basin to monitor updates closely.<div data-youtube-video=""><iframe width="640" height="480" allowfullscreen="false" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/W2bhqfX0B0A" start="0"></iframe></div>What is slightly concerning are the water temperatures in the Gulf. Right now, they are 1°C warmer than they usually are for this time of the year. That being said, it's been tough to get anything over those warm waters so far this season-let's hope that continues.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-13 051452-1757762098585.jpg">As always, preparedness is key. Whether or not this particular system develops into a named storm, it serves as a reminder that the Atlantic remains active and that the window for tropical threats is far from closed.

While the Atlantic has been relatively quiet this season, the Eastern Pacific has been more active, particularly in recent months. Early Saturday morning, Mario dissipated southwest of the Baja Peninsula, only to reemerge Sunday morning as a tropical storm. One other tropical wave has a likely chance of developing over the next week.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-17 181853-1758154740163.png"><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-15 184318-1757983404971.png"><h1>Bye Bye Mario</h1>Mario has once again weakened upon encountering cooler sea surface temperatures and enhanced shear. It became post-tropical once and for all Tuesday night.

The dry time has been a little hard to enjoy the last week or two in South Florida. While this is the rainy season, and we're making up for a slow start to it, you can still roll your eyes at what the extended forecasts have looked like recently. In fact, some spots in South Florida have already had their wettest start to September, including Miami.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-16 163631-1758062210080.png">On the other end of the spectrum, some northern Florida spots have really missed out, making it the driest start to September in areas such as Gainesville and Tallahassee.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-16 163641-1758062216443.png">So why? Just because Florida likes to have the most fun? Well, actually, a frontal boundary keeps these storms coming for days. While we've had a couple of days of relief, more moisture is in the forecast for South Florida.That, along with a TON of moisture to work with, is attempting to catch up some drought-stricken areas of the Sunshine State. The Drought Monitor updated on Thursday and had some pretty sizeable improvements in South Florida.<video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/2025-09-11 09-39-57-1757605257541.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video>So while it might be easy to complain about beach plans constantly getting ruined, it has its benefits. Our biggest concern is the lightning threat associated with any Florida thunderstorm, but especially this time of year, with people outdoors. Anytime it rains this heavily, of course, the flash flooding threat will be there as well. Some areas could receive another 3-5 inches, or even more, before the rain chances start to back off next week.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-17 205021-1758163841398.png">

Florida Rainfall: Nuisance or Beneficial?

CENTRAL U.S - A trough that came in from the Pacific, moved over the Rockies, and is now stuck in the Plains has been responsible for severe storms across the High Plains. It's now pushing into the Central Plains, ushering a slow-moving cold front through the area. Related: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.weathernationtv.com/news/north-dakota-breaks-yearly-tornado-record">Dakota Tornado Record Falls Over the Weekend</a>The front is moving southward, bringing the threat of more hailstones and damaging winds, with an outside chance of a tornado. Storms will continue to blossom in coverage through the overnight hours. The SPC has issued a SLIGHT (level 2 out of 5) and MARGINAL (level 1 out of 5) risk for severe weather into early Thursday morning. <img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-17 191815-1758158301143.png"><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/storms-1758158400483.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video>The severe risk along this front continues through tomorrow as well.

Rob grew up in South Florida, where daily afternoon storms and hurricanes piqued his interest in meteorology early on. That interest was fostered by his teachers and his father, who one time brought him onto the roof of their home to watch a funnel cloud move through the Everglades several miles away. Years of filmmaking and tv production in high school gradually pushed him toward broadcast meteorology at Florida State University, where he joined and eventually led the student run daily weather show. After graduating with a Bachelors of Science in Meteorology, he began his career at KESQ in Palm Springs, California before heading to KFSN in Fresno and WLOS in Asheville, North Carolina. He has covered a diverse array of extreme weather events, including haboobs and flash flooding in the desert, extreme snow in the Sierra, hurricanes, and Appalachian ice storms. He also enjoys telling stories and reporting about weather issues.

A strong upper-level trough along with monsoonal moisture advecting northward continues to hone in on Western Colorado, SE Utah, and New Mexico. Both a flood threat and isolated severe thunderstorms will be possible. There are risks for excessive rainfall and flooding over the next few days.

From Delaware to Florida, coastal flood alerts have been issued along a large portion of the U.S. East Coast. These are issued for 1-2 feet of inundation, and several factors are at play. A strong high-pressure center over New England and a stationary boundary offshore the southeast coast are going to leave the east coast under persistent onshore winds that are pushing the ocean water onto the beaches.Additionally, beachgoers should exercise caution due to the high risk of rip currents. These strong, fast-moving currents can pull swimmers away from shore.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-10 192356-1757553892007.png">The last full moon, just earlier this week, enhanced high tides, being an additional factor to the widespread coastal alerts.

Then, this weekend, a second cold front arrives from Canada to reinforce the cooler air.<video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/09-03 RNC STORMS-1756955636998.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h2>Temperatures</h2>Behind the front, temperatures will drop significantly as winds shift to the north.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot 2025-09-02 160633-1756850797164.png">For many areas, this will be the coolest air since spring, even cooler than the most recent bout of chilly temperatures.
