Climate Impact Company North Atlantic Basin 10-Day Monitor
Issued: Thursday October 15, 2026
Highlight: Two risk areas issued for next week.

Discussion: Two ALERTS are issued for next week (Fig. 1). A likely scenario is the chilly air mass moving across the Northeast States this weekend pushing across the warm western North Atlantic basin causing a low-pressure area to form which winds into a subtropical storm later next week. The slow mover stays offshore but causes strong onshore wind along the East Coast leading to some flooding and certainly beach erosion. A second ALERT is issued for a low-risk tropical cyclone generation in the Caribbean Sea later next week.
