Forum:2018 Atlantic hurricane season

Post-Season Changes
^Gordon dissipated on the 6th but advisories were issued on his remnants until the 8th.

The first TCR for the Atlantic this year was put up on the site yesterday, and it is for Beryl. Some changes were that Beryl formed a day earlier, and pressure was dropped from 994 to 991 mbars. ~ Roy25    Talk  |  Contributions     23:09, September 21, 2018 (UTC)


 * Slight change in the section on Beryl -- It dissipated on the 8th but regenerated on the 14th. These dissipation and regeneration dates weren't changed in the TCR. Ryan1000 06:58, September 22, 2018 (UTC)

Alberto's TCR is out. New updates: He turned tropical on the 28th while still at 55 knots/65 MPH so he peaked as a TS not a SS. No change on the dates or strength, still 65 MPH/990 MB peaks. So, rip turning tropical over land. YellowSkarmory (talk) 21:37, October 18, 2018 (UTC)
 * Chris and TD 11 came out on the web today. Only change for Chris was it s pressure dropped by 1 mbar. TD 11 is also out, though it was completed over a month ago. The only change was that its entire lifespan was shifted a day earlier.  ~ Roy25     Happy Holidays!!!  |  🎄     23:07, December 20, 2018 (UTC)

Changed the month slightly to keep the table neat, but otherwise, yeah. NHC seems a bit lazy on putting up weak storms like TD 11 like that, I'm willing to bet they've probably finished Debby and/or Ernesto by now too, but haven't put them on their site yet. John of the EPac was also put up recently but was finished a while back. Ryan1000 05:23, December 21, 2018 (UTC)


 * Helene is up on their site, but actually came out two months ago on December 13. Pressure rose by 1 mbar, but winds are still the same. Ryan1000 21:49, February 1, 2019 (UTC)
 * I expected Helene to not be upgraded to a major, it just didn't looked fit to be a major at all. As for the two-month delay, I won't blame the NHC entirely, as the federal government shutdown that happened for over a month was mainly responsible for the lack of TCRs at that time period due to the small amount of NHC staff (I think a user posted something about this in another forum page).  ~ Roy25     Talk  |  Contributions     04:43, February 02, 2019 (UTC)

Isaac said that on the 2018 EPac forum page. Shortly after the government was re-opened, they put up Helene and Rosa in the EPac (though Rosa's actually was finished a short while ago). Ryan1000 22:04, February 2, 2019 (UTC)


 * Joyce is up, though she was finished two weeks ago on January 30th. Duration was cut 1 day short at the end, and pressure dropped 2 mbars from 997 to 995. Ryan1000 19:57, February 13, 2019 (UTC)

Gordon, Isaac, Kirk, and Oscar are all up on the NHC's site now, though they were finished some time ago. Gordon's pressure was downed to 996 but winds are the same, also he dissipated on the 6th but advisories were issued on his remnants until the 8th. Isaac's pressure was nerfed from 993 to 995 but duration and peak winds are unchanged. Kirk's intensity wasn't changed but his duration was cut 1 day short in his first lifespan. Oscar formed 1 day earlier. That leaves only 6 TCR's remaining in the AHS from 2018, which are Debby, Ernesto, Florence, Leslie, Michael, and Nadine. I wouldn't be surprised if they already finished Debby, Ernesto, and Nadine but didn't put them on their site yet, but they might take some more time on Florence, Leslie, and Michael.

41st RA IV Hurricane Committee (Florence and Michael likely retired)
Though it's slightly early, the 41st regional association hurricane committee starts tomorrow through Friday in Curacao, and it's likely Florence and Michael will be retired in the meeting, maybe Willa and/or Lane could go in the EPac list as well. Leslie and Walaka have outside shots but I wouldn't count on them. Any last-second speculation about the 2018 retirees or their replacements can be done here, as I've archived the sections above, sans the Post-season changes section as some TCR's are still missing.
