Weather 225

21/12/2024

We have some big news in regards to the future and Weather 225 Media.

We started back in May of 2015 with the goal of keeping North Texans informed for the weather, severe weather risks, and having an approach that helped reduce fear when severe weather was forecasted. Since our beginning we’ve grown our following, created our website, mobile app, and streaming channels. We’ve covered historic winter weather, severe weather, and other weather events. We’ve grown our coverage areas to include parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, New York, and Tropics. We’ve been your local trusted weather source since 2015. This has been a nonstop commitment to keeping our viewers informed, teaching weather facts and safety, and forecasting for our coverage areas. When I was a very young child, “Weather 225” was my made up weather station at home, I had a pretend studio where I’d pretend to deliver the forecast to viewers. The “225” was my favorite TV number because it was the weather channels number on our TV. Since then I created what has become a fairly large following and streaming platform. With that being said, I have graduated college, and I have taken a job with a station in Fayetteville Arkansas (KFSM) and will be starting my job in early January. This job is a dream come true, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue to serve one of the communities I’ve been forecasting for over the last several years. Unfortunately this means Weather 225 will have to cease operations so I can give my full attention to my job, and the community I will be forecasting for. While our updates will stop, this isn’t goodbye forever. Who knows what the future has in store for me years from now, I will keep these pages up incase someday I want to start this back up again. I’m grateful for every one of you for your support, for your kind words, for your feedback. I’m also beyond grateful for the support of MyPro Construction and Roofing (My DFW Sponsor). I wouldn’t have had the ability to make the fancy graphics or radar systems without their support these past several years, and I’m grateful for their team, their support, and their generosity. Please support them, they’ve supported me so much the last several years. So while this is goodbye for now, you can follow me on my professional journey here: Joshua Wisel Weather
And if you know anyone in the Fayetteville Arkansas area, have them tune in for updates from me as I start my professional career in January.

I’m so thankful for you all

⚠️Debby to strengthen to CAT 1 intensities before landfall by Monday, potentially historic rainfall forecasted for coastal GA, and SC between Monday and Friday.
Now Tropical Storm is making its way further North Toward the western and panhandle coastal areas of Florida and is expected to strengthen to a CAT 1 storm by Monday before landfall early Monday afternoon. Additionally, forecasted potentially historic rainfall amounts will bring significant to potentially catastrophic flooding to parts of Georgia and South Carolina between Monday and Friday. Coastal areas, rivers, streams, flood prone areas are at extreme risk for flooding with heavy rainfall activity between Brunswick GA to Charleston SC, where some areas could see between 22-30" of rainfall potentially. Prepare accordingly if you're in this storms path. Remember a storm does not have to be a significant CAT 3+ strengthen storm to leave historical impacts. PLEASE stay tuned to local officials and weather service for updates in the coming days! Weather225.com
Latest NHC Discussion: Tropical Storm Debby Discussion Number 9
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL042024
1100 AM EDT Sun Aug 04 2024

Hurricane Hunter aircraft observations indicate that Debby
continues to intensify over the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Satellite
imagery shows that the cloud pattern is becoming better developed
with increasing deep convection near the center of circulation, and
WSR-88D radar data indicate that an eyewall is beginning to form.
The current intensity estimate is estimated to be 55 kt based on a
significant drop in central pressure reported the aircraft.

The cyclone has been turning gradually to the right and the initial
motion is north-northwestward or 330/11 kt. Over the next day or
so, Debby should move through a weakness in the mid-level
subtropical ridge over the southeastern United States and reach the
northeast Gulf of Mexico coast in the Florida Big Bend region on
Monday. After the system makes landfall, the steering currents are
likely to weaken as a trough over the northeastern U.S. moves
eastward from the area, which should result in a decrease in forward
speed. There is significant uncertainty in the track of Debby in
the 2-5 day time frame. Much of the track guidance keeps the center
over the southeastern U.S. for the next several days as a ridge
builds in over the Carolinas. The official track forecast is
similar to the previous one and close to the HFIP corrected
consensus prediction. This keeps the slow-moving center near the
Georgia and South Carolina coast in the 3 to 5 day time-frame.

Debby will be moving over very warm waters and in a low-vertical
shear environment prior to landfall. Therefore significant
strengthening is likely through tonight, especially if the cyclone
forms a well-defined inner core The official forecast is near the
high side of the objective guidance and calls for the system to
become a hurricane within 12 hours. The cyclone will weaken after
it moves inland, but since the system will not be far from the
coastline for the next few days, it is not predicted to fall below
tropical storm strength through 72 hours.

Key Messages:

1. Heavy rainfall will likely result in considerable flooding
impacts from the Florida Big Bend region through southeast GA and
the Coastal Plain of the Carolinas through Friday. Potentially
historic heavy rainfall across southeast Georgia and South Carolina
through Friday morning may result in areas of catastrophic
flooding. Significant river flooding is also expected.

2. There is a danger of life-threatening storm surge along portions
of the Gulf Coast of Florida, with 6 to 10 feet of inundation above
ground level expected somewhere between Ochlockonee River and
Suwannee River on Monday. Residents in the Storm Surge Warning area
should follow any advice given by local officials.

3. Hurricane conditions are expected Monday along portions of the
Florida Big Bend region where a Hurricane Warning is in effect, with
tropical storm conditions beginning this evening. Tropical storm
conditions are expected through Monday farther south within the
Tropical Storm Warning along Florida's west coast, including the
Tampa Bay area.

4. Impacts from storm surge and strong winds are possible along the
southeast coast from Georgia to North Carolina through the middle of
the week, and storm surge watches and tropical storm watches have
been issued for portions of these areas. Additional watches and
warnings will likely be required later today.

Latest from the NHC shows a now moderate 40% chance for tropical development in the central tropical Atlantic that could make its way west toward the Caribbean and western Atlantic coast. This system could develop a tropical depression within the next 48 hours as it moves into the vicinity of the Leeward Islands and Greater Antilles. - Joshua Wisel Weather Weather 225 Tropical Updates

Latest discussion update from National Hurricane Center:
Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1605 UTC Sat Jul 27 2024

Tropical Weather Discussion for the eastern Pacific Ocean from
03.4S to 30N, east of 120W including the Gulf of California, and
from the Equator to 30N, between 120W and 140W. The following
information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations,
radar, and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1350 UTC.
..TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is near 87W moving across Central America from
near the Gulf of Fonseca southward to 04N, moving very quickly
west at 20-25 kt. Nearby convection is described below in the
ITCZ/monsoon trough section.

A tropical wave is near 114.5W from 06N to 20N with axis near
113W, moving west at 10-15 kt. Nearby convection is described
below in the ITCZ/monsoon trough section.

A tropical wave is near 135W from 04N to 20N, moving west at
around 10 kt. Nearby convection is described below in the
ITCZ/monsoon trough section.
..INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH...

The monsoon trough extends from 12N86W to 15N133W. The ITCZ
extends from 15N133W to 13N133W, then resumes from 12N136W to
beyond 11N140W. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is
noted from 04N to 16N between 77W and 102W, from 11N to 13N
between 114W and 116W, and from 11N to 14N between 135W and 140W.
..OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO...

Moderate to fresh N winds are in the immediate Gulf of
Tehuantepec. Winds are moderate or weaker across the remainder of
the offshore waters of Mexico, including in the Gulf of
California. Seas are in the 4-6 ft range in mainly S to SW swell
across the open waters, and 2-4 ft range in the Gulf of
California.

For the forecast, moderate to fresh N winds will continue to
pulse in the Gulf of Tehuantepec, locally strong at times,
through the next several days. Winds will be mainly moderate or
weaker elsewhere, fresh at times offshore Baja California Norte.
Little change in seas is expected into next week. Looking ahead,
an area of low pressure is forecast to form by the middle of
next week a few hundred nautical miles south of the coast of
southern Mexico. Environmental conditions appear conducive for
gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression
could form during the middle or latter part of next week. This
system is forecast to move west-northwestward at 10 to 15 kt,
roughly parallel to the coast of southwestern Mexico.
..OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA,
AND WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR...

Heavy showers and thunderstorms are across much of the offshore
waters from Colombia and Panama west-northwestward and south of
the monsoon trough. Moderate to fresh winds are offshore
Nicaragua. Winds are moderate or weaker elsewhere. Seas are in
the 4-7 ft range across the offshore waters, mainly in S to SW
swell.

For the forecast, moderate to fresh winds will pulse in the Gulf
of Papagayo through the middle of next week, locally strong Sun
night through Mon. Elsewhere, gentle to moderate winds and
moderate seas will persist through the end of the forecast period.
..REMAINDER OF THE AREA...

Low pressure, the remnants of Bud, are located near 19N123W at
1011 mb. Nearby winds are 20 kt or less while some remnant seas
of around 8 ft are subsiding. Moderate to fresh trades are north
of the ITCZ to 20N and west of a tropical wave near 135W, with
fresh to locally strong E to SE winds south of the ITCZ and west
of 130W. Seas are 6-9 ft near this area from the Equator to 20N
and west of 118W. Winds are moderate or weaker elsewhere with
seas in the 5-7 ft range.

For the forecast, the remnant low of Bud will dissipate to a
trough later today while associated remnant seas subside. Marine
conditions over the west-central and SW waters near a tropical
wave at 135W will improve by Sun as the wave departs into the
Central Pacific basin. Fairly tranquil marine conditions should
prevail across most of the open waters into early next week, with
winds freshening south of the monsoon trough building seas
slightly to 8 ft in the central waters Mon through early Tue.
Looking ahead, an area of low pressure could form by the middle
of next week well to the southwest of the southern tip of the
Baja California Peninsula. Some slow development of this system
is possible during the middle and latter parts of next week while
it moves westward to west-northwestward across the western
portion of the basin.
