2025 Global Tropical Cyclone Season Discussion

First major hurricane in the Eastern Pacific in June since 2018. This also marks the first time that a tropical system named Erick has reached major hurricane intensity since it was added to the list of names.
 
Erick’s has set some new precedents;

Earliest “E” named storm for the EPAC

One of the Easternmost, if not the easternmost MH landfalls on record

Earliest EPAC MH to strike Mexico on record for the EPAC as well as the ATL.
 
If that isn’t enough, how about the fact that we have yet ANOTHER AoI that is around the same area that Erick formed and it is currently 0/20 in chances right now?
 
We have Invest 95W in the Western Pacific. It could become a brief TC as it takes a close pass to Japan while recurrving OTS:

The Eastern Pacific AoI is up to a medium chance in 7 days, with it running 0/40 right now.

It is now code red at 70%. Should this develop, it would be 6 for 6 on disturbances, as every area the NHC has highlighted in the EPAC to date has developed minus this current one.

We are currently 5 for 5 right now.
 
Invest 95W is now at medium chance according to the JTWC. A TUTT is currently hindering development but the JTWC does expect further development once it moves more northwards away from the TUTT.

The JTWC on Invest 95W;

Maximum sustained surface winds are around 30–35 km/h (15–20 knots). Minimum sea-level pressure is estimated to be near 1008 hPa.

Satellite imagery shows persistent deep convection over the eastern edge of a consolidating low-level circulation center (LLCC). Furthermore, environmental analysis shows 95W is currently in a moderately favorable environment for development with low (10–15 knot) wind shear, weak poleward outflow aloft and warm (29–30°C) sea surface temperatures.

The only hindrance to development currently is a tropical upper tropospheric trough (TUTT) cell positioned west of the system that is currently restricting outflow along the northwestern semicircle.

Forecast models are in fair agreement that 95W will move northwestward and develop over the next 24 hours as it continues to distance itself from the aforementioned TUTT cell.

Information provided by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC).

I haven’t seen an Invest under the JTWC’s watch go from Low to High chance this fast since Garance in the SWIO in February during that six storm SHEM outbreak.

Well that’s about the fastest I’ve ever seen the JTWC going from designating an invest with a low chance of formation to upgrading it to high chance and issuing a TCFA on it.

This is what has happened to Invest 97S. The JTWC had designated it around this time last night, noted it as a medium chance invest around 10-11am EST on their map they issue on their homepage to now at near 7:40 pm EST.
