Imelda and Humberto are churning only about 580 miles from each other tonight. Only 9 other named storms have ever come as close or closer in the Atlantic in the satellite era (since 1966). The last occurrence was Philippe and Rina around this time in 2023.

This wind field is nuts. Maximum flight-level winds in Hurricane Erin a mere 110 miles from its center. Paging H*Wind, we're about to see some serious IKE 📈

#mammatus - Monday's thunderstorm activity. Was too tired to drone it, really should have, though.

Top of the hour and we have a MAJOR story developing out of Area 51. The order from President Whitmore is clear and intently to the point:
"Nuke 'em, let's nuke the bastards."

Hail is in the darker red color.

For hurricane nerds only: my annual roundup of which models did the best. The European and GFS models were the top track models in 2024, with the GFS making better four- and five-day forecasts. The official NHC forecast was tough to beat. yaleclimateconnections.org/2025/05/whic...
