# Atlantic Tropical Weather

_Active Atlantic systems and areas under watch from the NOAA National Hurricane Center. Updated Oct 3, 2026, 10:45 PM CT._

_Only Atlantic systems appear here. The National Hurricane Center is also tracking Rachel and Nolo in the Pacific. Pacific storms form on the other side of Mexico and do not reach Crosby._

## Areas being watched

Tracked by the NHC for possible development before they are named. A percentage is the chance a tropical cyclone forms at all — not a track, and not a statement that it would reach Texas.

- **Southwestern Gulf of America**
  - Next 48 hours: 0% (low)
  - Next 7 days: 20% (low)

## Hurricane season and Crosby

Season runs June 1 – November 30. Crosby's hurricane dangers are inland rain flooding, damaging wind, spin-off tornadoes, and extended power outages — not storm surge (we're ~35 miles inland). Watches mean possible within 48h; warnings mean expected within 36h.
