August 1: AMBER ALERT- West Tennessee
August 1: Tropical Storm Emily Forms, Florida In Target Zone
Tropical Storm Emily has formed in the Caribbean as expected. Tropical Storm Warnings have been hoisted for many Caribbean islands, including Haiti and surrounding regions.
We at The Weather Centre believe Emily is a very real threat to Florida and areas west. We believe this because, now that Emily has formed inside the Caribbean region, it becomes unlikely that the storm will take a sharp turn to the east and fire out to the Atlantic. Because the above image is a likely output, we advise all residents in the state of Florida and states to the west to monitor this situation.
Models from this evening's 0z run are definitely taking a westward turn from the last several runs. There remains a potential for the storm to actually miss Florida and go out to sea as depicted in the beige dashed line, but that particular model is not considered a trust-worthy model, so we will not mind that.

August 1: Potential Hurricane Threat (Florida)
We at The Weather Centre are concerned with the system currently in the Atlantic just a bit east of the Caribbean Islands. After checking the GFS model run on a new site we recently discovered, we are now concerned with the possibility of a tropical storm/Category 1 hurricane landfall in Florida.
On the top we see the track of the storm as per the 6z run of the GFS. For those confused by all the colors, just look at the track itself. We see how the GFS unfortunately prints out a possible Florida landfall.
At the bottom we see the 925 mb wind swath. What this depicts is projected wind speeds just above the surface. We see florida could get in on a potential maximum of 79 knot wind speeds. That equals about 92 MPH, or a Category 1 hurricane.
We will closely monitor this situation.

August 1 Severe Weather Discussion
Discussion... Tornado threat will be unusually elevated in North Dakota into Minnesota. Surface Heating, combined with increasing atmospheric forcing will provide the beginning of strong to potentially intense thunderstorms over the areas mentioned above.
These storms are expected to develop along an outflow boundary left by this morning's ongoing MCS(storm cluster).
We have determined that the outflow boundary may be on the ND/SD border right now, but we do not have confirmation of that.
