Hurricane Update: Tropical Disturbance Fades Away
As of Sunday, September 7, 2025, the tropical disturbance in the Atlantic has dissipated, and the chances of it developing into a hurricane have decreased significantly. According to recent satellite images, the system has lost its organization and is now a cluster of thunderstorms with no clear circulation.
This sudden change in the system’s behavior is unusual, as it had previously shown a 90% chance of development. However, the presence of a large pool of dry air in the Caribbean has likely contributed to its demise. The dry air has disrupted the system’s ability to organize and maintain a strong circulation, making it unlikely to develop into a hurricane.
Current Weather Conditions
The current weather conditions in the Atlantic are not conducive to hurricane formation. The jet stream is injecting dry air into the tropics, and the upper winds are hostile to tropical development. While the pattern that governs tropical activity is in a supportive phase, the extremely wavy jet stream is suppressing development.
Meanwhile, in the Pacific, Hurricane Kiko is still active, although it has begun to weaken. The latest forecasts suggest that the worst of the storm will pass north of the Hawaiian Islands, but large and dangerous surf is expected to impact the islands, and a Coastal Flood Watch is in effect. Moisture from the edge of Kiko will spread across the islands, and residents are advised to stay informed about the storm’s track.
