Cat 1 Hurricane Danielle noted in the Atlantic Ocean.
After having temperatures in the sixties for the months of summer, a hurricane shows up in the Atlantic and the temperature drops by double digits at Glacier Bay National Park. Coincidence? No. Hurricanes distribute tropospheric heat into the ocean.
There is not just one tropical depression coming off Africa. There is a second spawned right behind the storm named Danielle. The current trajectory of Danielle does not bring it near the Gulf of Mexico, therefore, the drought continues with growing severity across Louisiana.
Yes, this is still a Climate Crisis with global record changes in weather patterns, drought and increased temperatures.
If the second tropical depression from Africa continues to develop we might be seeing some percipitation for the Gulf States of the USA. Maybe. Very bit maybe.
