I mention this most seasons, but here are two blogs I follow during season in addition to the NHC official stuff. They are definitely not running in real time, often lagging the situation out there by 12-36 hours with updates tucked in where needed. But both of these are much longer on the why’s and the bigger picture context than is NHC who is (appropriately) all about the “what now and what immediately next”.
IMO the sum of all three provides a well-rounded view of the total tropical picture.
These folks are about climate change first and foremost but while a tropical cyclonic storm is in progress anywhere on Earth, they also run a play-by-play on that, but still within a climatic context.
And for a mostly Florida-centric POV, this local TV newscaster’s blog is the polar opposite of the usual vapid TV weather-reader with fake teeth and fake credibility to match.
