Messaging from NWS Jacksonville, NWS Tampa Bay and NWS Tallahassee regarding the cold weather coming tonight. Protect your plants, pets and pipes!

This is a little ridiculous for November 11 🥶

I've seen murmurings about potential development in the Caribbean in the 7-10 day range. Unless Google starts perking up, consider me uninterested.

It's looking to get cold next week. 30s and 40s possible for much of northern and central Florida.

A nice clean map on today's Global Tropics Hazards Outlook. Less than a month to go in hurricane season!

FYI if you have Jamaica vacation plans the next 3 months - a number of Hyatt properties have cancelled reservations through January 2026 due to storm damage from Melissa.

Don't forget to change your clocks tonight! We also get the model runs an hour earlier, which is nice!

Google Deep Mind ensembles showing a very quiet Atlantic for the first 2 weeks of November. Enjoy Halloween!

The NHC has just issued its last advisory on Hurricane Melissa as it is now a post-tropical cyclone. Safe to say we won't see the name return in 2031.

Happy Halloween everyone! 🎃 👻

Unsurprising to see Google Deep Mind (GDMI) leading the way this season on track. It’s been on fire. AVNI is the GFS and doing the worst after 72 hours.

Unbelievable before and after photos from White House and Black River in Jamaica, near where landfall occurred.

Sadly, 54 fatalities have been reported thus far from Melissa in Haiti, Dominican Republic, Jamaica and Panama.

Good morning! Melissa made its second landfall near Santiago de Cuba at 3:10 AM as a Category 3 hurricane.
October 29, 2025 at 10:11 AM
Melissa is an extremely dangerous Category 4 hurricane once again as the 11 PM advisory increases winds to 130 MPH.
October 29, 2025 at 2:57 AM
Recon approaching the center of Melissa once again. We will know soon if it has re-strengthened any since leaving Jamaica.
October 29, 2025 at 2:15 AM
The airport in Montego Bay, Jamaica, suffered significant damage from Melissa.
October 29, 2025 at 1:47 AM
Melissa appears to be re-organizing over the Caribbean after exiting Jamaica. Recon is enroute to investigate the system.
