Some of his videos have had birds chirping in the background. I kept pausing thinking the bird’s outside my house were freaking out. But besides that being a little distracting, he’s always been understandable which is what is important lol
Mic is fine. You are fine. Thank you always for the expertise.
Thank you for your videos. I just started watching you these past couple of weeks and I can’t believe I didn’t find your videos sooner! Keep up the good work 😊

You do an amazing job…..No audio issues. Thank you very much.
Irma 2017 is when I started to watch your videos. Thank you!
Always appreciate your thorough updates. Thanks
Dr. Levi Cowan for president 2024! Your insights are immeasurably helpful, and your understanding of the weather phenomenon of the hurricane is priceless. Thanks for your learned expertise!
Beryl already has a center of circulation and she is moving into a less hostile environment. Once the hurricane hits a hot deep upwelling in the ocean with minimal wind shear , she will intensify rapidly. Texas could see a Cat 3 hurricane or higher. Thank you for the updates.

Wishcasting…
Thank you. I'm in Kleberg county, this is the best info I've been able to find all day.
One of the best forecasts ever , explained very thoroughly , but not talking down to us or over simplifying.
Yay corpus christi needs water ! Thank goodness 🙏.. we been in water restrictions for 5 years !
I appreciate your factual forecast with no drama, thanks. Been a user of TTB website for last couple years
Thanks for all your great work, Dr. Cowan! You are very appreciated!
Your audio sounds just fine; some of the wishcasters I used to watch back in the day could only dream of sounding this clear. 😂 I always turn to your site in times of winter weather forecasting and of course for the tropics as well. I live in a land-locked state far from the coast but we get the remnants often; always good to remain weather aware for as large a zone as possible so nothing surprises you!
Thank you Dr. Cowan for excellent updates! Watching closely from Rockport, Texas and getting out of harms way. Beryl is forecast to come in very near the location that Hurricane Harvey landed. San Antonio Bay / Matagorda / Calhoun County is 30 miles northeast of the city of Rockport and is adjacent to the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge. Harvey blew up from a tropical depression to Cat 4 in less than 42 hours. 🙏🙏🙏
One of the best features of Doc Cowan's report format, is he doesn't bother showing his not-ugly mug in a headshot throughout the video, as do so so many other web-weather guys. I find this very respectful of his viewers because others that do the talking head thing don't seem to realize it is a) annoying b) distracting c) a poor use of the limited screen display. Doc C is not self serving, and only interested in presenting useful, not useless, information. In a potentially life threatening event, we appreciate this genuine respect of and his interest to the viewers. Thanks Doc !!

I agree 100%. I prefer the voice only with no face on screen, not only for weather channels but also for true crime type channels. If your voice is good and unique i dont want to know what you look like-ruins the mystery. And to your point, most people are viewing on a phone with a limited screen so it is not useful to the viewer to have your face taking up valuable real estate!

Storm looks really healthy i expect cat 3 on landfall
@NesconProductions

Agreed, with rapid strengthening a Cat 2 or stronger at landfall seems more probable. Also see a continued shift in the model tracks to the East, meaning more time for the storm to be over open (& very warm) water. As a broad comment it seems when water temperatures are extremely warm models tend to underestimate the capacity for tropical systems to strengthen. It's very interesting that with tremendous amount of data gathered on tropical storms how difficult they are to forecast. A few days back many models predicted the storm would track much farther west and south into Mexico. Will be curious to revisit our our predictions Eric in the next few days .

I’ll take the under. So far it’s struggling to get its act back together. Due to the shear it has not stacked back up yet. It’s been running above average in terms of strength but the current model guidance is only low end Cat 1 so reaching Cat 2 is questionable but it could get there. Tomorrow will let us know, it will either already be a Cat 1 working towards a 2 or still be just a TS. Right now all the strong winds are NE of the center so it hasn’t wrapped up. Pressure actually went up not down during the last recon flight.
If a hurricane cools the water, does that effect make it less likely to have higher intensity systems during the rest of the season specifically around its track?

This can happen over a narrow area, but only persists for a week or two before the cold wake warms up again. It typically takes a special coincidence for a 2nd storm to be hindered by the first one's cold wake.

Only for a short period of time. Don’t forget that Rita tracked over some of the same water that Katrina became a Cat 5 on but Rita became the strongest Gulf of Mexico hurricane on record.

The sheer cerated by the upper low to the West also veers Beryl a bit more to the North. I bet on a Cat2 between Corpus Christi and Port Aransas.
Those of us in central Texas are, shall we say...concerned.😏
Thank you!

Hopefully the intensification won’t be like Harvey 😢

Beryl doesn't quit. I like his style.
is there a one-time donation option to support your work?
Thanks. What is this HASP B modeling you refer to. Even though on the runs you mention European (ECMWF I think) and of course GFS. How come it's pretty rare for these tropical systems to just fall apart after traveling over various land masses. Yet tornados often fall apart easily after interaction with large structures or terrain on the ground.
@astronemir

Inertia. Compare physics of hurricane vs tornado
Looking like Corpus will be on the south side of the storm, thank god. Been on the north side many a times and it's always so much worse.
The way it looks makes me wonder if one of these could ever split in two after going over a land mass or there's probably not enough fuel or they will always combine into one because of physics. You know like it would be crazy if the part on north that looks split off became it's own Hurricane or tropical storm and now there were two back to back!
tbh your laptop's mic is pretty good
I’m concerned about rapid intensification. Seems to happen to us on the gulf coast lately.
Go Noles!

I certainly wish we (Central Maine) had the expertise demonstrated in your forecasts. We have to deal with an AI or computer generated forecast map that changes every 30 minutes, not much time to deal with severe weather.
I'm very very glad Beryl didn't have this convection hit last night and the storm did weaken to 1001 MB or you would be talking cat # on a Texas landfall. My other Dr. friend Reed Timmer is headed for Texas Dr. Cowan hehe he never stops chasing.
Will it hit Corpus Christi bad brotha?
Let's go beryl!
Why do meteorologists refuse to tell us what the ceiling is on a storm? If I’m in the path, I want to know if there’s even a modest possibility it could come in far stronger than forecast. What’s to prevent Beryl from going through RI again and stop it from being a major hurricane at landfall? It already went from TD to Cat 4 in less than two days once. Not a single meteorologist told us that was even a possibility, it’s important information that you need to get out. As someone who used to talk to you on the wunderground days, please help the industry figure out their messaging on this. I had family members get absolutely blindsided in Michael because y’all didn’t get the message out that Michael could go through RI. All us enthusiast knew it was a possibility, the professionals did too, but the public didn’t.

Yes sir, you are spot on sir. And same with 2020 Sally which at last minute took a hard right WHILE UNEXPECTEDLY STRENGTHENING. Even without the track divergence, if folks down on the AL FL panhandle had heard messaging it could have a stronger top-end, they would have not been caught flatfooted.
@TheJoshlaymon

It’s simple actually. If they mention high end forecasts, that’s all people will talk about. Then when it doesn’t end up that bad they will say that the meteorologists overhyped the storm. Then people will stop listening and the situation will be even worse. If you want to listen to worst-case-scenario people, you can find them all over KZread. If you want an honest analysis of the most probable outcome, then you have already found what you are looking for.

They are not great at predicting the intensity of a storm so I think they are more cautious. I would expect that if it's already showing signs of organizing that it would be a major hurricane. They predicted Beryl to only be a Cat 2 at the windward Islands. It was a Cat 5.
