NHC Determines That a Subtropical Storm Formed in the Atlantic Basin in Mid-January 2023... https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/wx/afos/p.php?pil=PNSNHC&e=202305111500

Still surreal that wasn't named and advised upon in real-time; clear eye and sustained eyewall with hints of upper level outflow then a temperature spike to accompany the rather low pressure recorded upon landfall in Canada made it very clear it was very much on the tropical side of the spectrum. Glad there's official acknowledgement but a landfalling storm that wasn't officially warned upon is a bit unnerving.

Tropical Storm Mawar in the Western Pacific. Expected to become the first typhoon of the season by late today/early tomorrow. This would break the streak of 139 consecutive days without a typhoon this year. The 12z HWRF takes Mawar down to 932mbars by next Thursday. Given the Western Pacific, though, it'll probably be sooner than that. Mawar has potential to become the first May category 5 typhoon since 2015. The last major category 3+ typhoon in May in the Western Pacific was 2020. Since 1950, the Western Pacific has just had 10 Category 5 Typhoons in the month of May. Those years are: 1951, 1958, 1971, 1986, 1991, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2011, and 2015. I did a big post on my Patreon yesterday on the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season and my expectation.

It did. It also ran over Guam, so this is probably the very last Typhoon Mawar ever.

Super Typhoon Mawar is the strongest May typhoon in terms of max winds since Damrey in 2000. For those looking at ENSO, 1998-2001 was the last 3 year La Nina before this most recent one. One interesting note is that this is the first May category 5 Super Typhoon in the Western Pacific to occur during a transition from a 3 year La Nina to El Nino.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 AM EDT Thu Jun 1 2023
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
Northeastern Gulf of Mexico (AL91):
Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure over the northeastern Gulf of Mexico have increased and become better organized during the overnight hours. Environmental conditions appear marginally favorable for additional development over the next day or so, and a short-lived tropical depression or storm could form over that time span as the system meanders over the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. However, by this weekend environmental conditions are forecast to become unfavorable for additional development as the system drifts southward, likely remaining offshore over the Gulf of Mexico. An Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate the system later today, if necessary.
Regardless of development, locally heavy rainfall could occur over portions of the Florida Peninsula through this weekend. Additional information on the rainfall and flooding potential can be found in products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast office and Excessive Rainfall Outlooks issued by the Weather Prediction Center.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.
Today marks the first day of the Atlantic hurricane season, which will run until November 30. The long-term averages for the number of named storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes are 14, 7, and 3, respectively.
The list of names for 2023 is as follows:

This product, the Tropical Weather Outlook, briefly describes significant areas of disturbed weather and their potential for tropical cyclone formation during the next seven days. The issuance times of this product are 2 AM, 8 AM, 2 PM, and 8 PM EDT. After the change to standard time in November, the issuance times are 1 AM, 7 AM, 1 PM, and 7 PM EST.
A Special Tropical Weather Outlook will be issued to provide updates, as necessary, in between the regularly scheduled issuances of the Tropical Weather Outlook. Special Tropical Weather Outlooks will be issued under the same WMO and AWIPS headers as the regular Tropical Weather Outlooks.
A standard package of products, consisting of the tropical cyclone public advisory, the forecast/advisory, the cyclone discussion, and a wind speed probability product, is issued every six hours for all ongoing tropical cyclones. In addition, a special advisory package may be issued at any time to advise of significant unexpected changes or to modify watches or warnings.
NHC has the option to issue advisories, watches, and warnings for disturbances that are not yet a tropical cyclone, but which pose the threat of bringing tropical storm or hurricane conditions to land areas within 48 hours. For these land-threatening "potential tropical cyclones", NHC will issue the full suite of advisory and watch/warning products. Potential tropical cyclones share the naming conventions currently in place for tropical depressions, being numbered from a single list (e.g., "One", "Two", "Three", etc.).
The Tropical Cyclone Update is a brief statement to inform of significant changes in a tropical cyclone, to post or cancel watches or warnings, or to provide hourly position updates between intermediate advisories when the storm center is easily followed by radar. It is used in lieu of or to precede the issuance of a special advisory package. Tropical Cyclone Updates, which can be issued at any time, can be found under WMO header WTNT61-65 KNHC, and under AWIPS header MIATCUAT1-5.
All NHC text and graphical products are available on the web at www.hurricanes.gov.
