An Active Autumn Atlantic Pattern
Amanda Delaney, Senior Meteorologist

On Thursday September 15th, WRI presented a webinar regarding the resurgence of tropical cyclones over the Atlantic Ocean and a more active weather pattern expected through the rest of Autumn. We showed a 10 day outlook with the latest on the tropical cyclones in the Atlantic, as well as, strengthening cold fronts moving offshore the U.S. East Coast and into the Mediterranean Sea. We discussed potential routing options with typical weather patterns over the Atlantic expected through November. We also provided a list of information that would assist us with routing a client across the Atlantic and what services are most beneficial for these transits.

If you are planning an upcoming Trans-Atlantic voyage and missed the webinar, you can view it here on our Crowdcast page, where you can click on "follow" to be informed about other webinars we are offering in the future.
