Please be aware, even though I do not post every night, rest assured I am continuously monitoring various areas for any significant weather.  I will be taking Sundays off (family time), unless we have active systems that may be posing a threat (i.e. Tropical, Winter Weather, Coastal Storms, etc.).

I will reiterate, my forecasts are based on the available information at the time of analysis, and are only as accurate as the information analyzed and the solutions provided.

Good evening everyone!

Before I get started, I didn’t know if everyone is familiar with the black space underneath the header banner.  When you come onto my site, at the top of the page, you’ll see the header.  Underneath the header you will note the following words, beginning with Home on the left hand side, followed by Abbreviations, About, Active Watches and Warnings NWS Hazards and Warnings Display, etc.

IF you mouse over these, each one will turn white.  Each one you click on, has different information.  I wanted to mention the abbreviations button.  You’ll note in my forecasts, I use abbreviations and acronyms.  IF you click on that particular one, you’ll find an ample list of abbreviations.

Since I will be busy the remainder of the week with severe weather forecasts, I wanted to take the opportunity to publish the list of storm names, and supplemental list for the 2022 Atlantic Hurricane Season.

The following are the storm names for the 2022 Atlantic Hurricane Season:
Alex  Bonnie  Colin  Danielle  Earl  Fiona  Gaston  Hermine  Ian  Julia  Karl
Lisa  Martin  Nicole  Owen  Paula  Richard  Shary  Tobias  Virginie  Walter

The following link is a PDF file showing the correct pronunciation of the storm names for the 2022 Hurricane Season:

The following is the new supplemental list of storm names for the 2022 Hurricane Season, should we go through the entire first list of names.  You’ll note, the list is not of the Greek alphabet.  The link following the supplemental list will explain why the WMO discontinued the Greek alphabet.
2022 HURRICANE SEASON SUPPLEMENTAL NAME LIST:

When the season begins, and we get a named system, I will be highlighting it in red, as I did above with Alex.  This way, we will know which systems we have had during the season.  There are no active systems at the moment, so I used Alex as an example. 

This office will begin issuing its Tropical Weather Outlook forecast synopsis, beginning May 15, 2022, or as necessary.  This is inline with the NHC starting their Tropical Weather Outlooks, which was changed due to the fact, we have seen early development prior to June 1st over the past few seasons.  The 2022 Hurricane Season officially begins on June 1st.  I will try to post numerous graphics with active systems if possible, however sometimes this always isn’t feasible, given the lateness of the evening, and urgency of issuing the synopsis. which means some posts may contain less graphics.

You may direct any questions by contacting me personally, ANYTIME, at: twalsh22000@yahoo.com

Have a blessed evening!
