Current conditions of cyclonic development in the Atlantic
The conditions of cyclonic development are rather unfavorable over the eastern Atlantic, over the center and off the West Indies. *
Sand and dry air
Sand and dry air are moderately present over the eastern Atlantic and the centre, and very present off the coast of the West Indies.
The West Indies is in an area of dry air and fairly dense sand.
SST (water temperature anomalies)
The water temperature is below 28° on average in the eastern Atlantic, it is close to 28° in the center of the zone and off the Caribbean arc.
Shear
Le shear is strong enough to strong throughout the major development zone (MDR) in the Atlantic.
Warning ! Adverse conditions do not necessarily indicate that there will be no cyclone and vice versa.

The Tropical Weather website
Tropical weather offers you a lot of information on hurricane weather in West Indies as well as on the cyclonic risk in the Atlantic and the Caribbean. It automatically compiles data from many sources in real time (Météo France, NHC, NOAA … Etc) and created an automated analysis of the weather situation, current cyclones and forecasts. It also displays satellite images, rainfalls radars as well as lightning strike radar. You will therefore find all the information available on cyclones.
On the dashboard of each territory, a summary of all the weather data gives you a quick and precise view of the current situation, the last hours and the 5-day forecast. An analysis of the current cyclones and the risk is also present.
You will also find there the statistics of all cyclones in the Atlantic since 1950 as well as those of the islands or territories affected by the risk of cyclones in the Atlantic basin (Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico). The French islands (Martinique, Guadeloupe, Saint-Martin et Saint-Barthelemy) are the subject of further analysis.
Finally, throughout the hurricane season and when a risk is identified, you will find expert analyzes.
The Météo Tropicale website is for LEISURE use only. It must never be used for decisions to protect property and people in the event of a meteorological risk. Only official organizations (Météo France, Préfecture, etc.) are authorized to provide specific safety information as well as the associated levels of Watching. When a risk is identified, you must follow the instructions of these organizations for your safety, that of those around you and that of your property.
