My apologies for the delay in this report. Issues with my laptop have been resolved (I think).

Backup Net Control Operator:
KD1CY>Rob, New Bedford, MA, Director of Operations for the VOIP Hurricane Prep Net and SKYWARN Coordinator, NWS Boston/Norton MA: Provided review of weather conditions in the New England area, an update to SRD 2022, and then provided tropical updates for Atlantic/Caribbean/Gulf of Mexico, Eastern North Pacific, and Central North Pacific regions.
1.??? In the Central Subtropical Atlantic:
a.??? Showers and thunderstorms have become better organized in association with an area of low pressure located several hundred miles east of Bermuda.? Additionally, the system appears to be acquiring some tropical characteristics as it separates from a nearby decaying frontal system. If these trends continue, a short-lived tropical depression or storm is likely to form tonight or on Sunday. At the same time, the system moves slowly west-northwestward to northwestward over the central Atlantic. The system is forecast to turn northward and northeastward and merge with a strong cold front by the middle of next week, and further development is not expected beyond that time. Additional information on this system, including gale warnings, can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service. Formation chance through 48 hours high, or 70 percent. Formation chance through 5 days high, or 70 percent.
?
2.??? In the Southwestern Atlantic:
a.??? A trough of low pressure located over the northeastern Caribbean Sea is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. The trough is forecast to move northward over the southwestern Atlantic on Sunday, where a broad area of low pressure is expected to form north of Hispaniola. Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for gradual development, and a subtropical or tropical depression is likely to form early next week while the system moves generally westward to west-northwestward over the southwestern Atlantic. Regardless of development, there is an increasing risk of coastal flooding, gale-force winds, heavy rainfall, rough surf, and beach erosion along much of the southeastern United States coast, the Florida east coast, and portions of the central and northwestern Bahamas during the early to the middle part of next week. The disturbance is also expected to bring locally heavy rainfall to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands this weekend. Interests in those areas should monitor the progress of this system. Formation chance through 48 hours medium, or 50 percent. Formation chance through 5 days high, or 80 percent.
?
3.??? For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude:
a.??? Tropical cyclone formation is not expected during the next 5 days.
?
4.??? For the central North Pacific between 140W and 180W longitude:
(from?the NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center in Honolulu HI):
a.??? No tropical cyclones are expected during the next 5 days.
VOIP Hurricane Net Management Team Member
KC5FM>Lloyd, Arkansas City, KS provided “Question of the Week” (above) and the Storm Prediction Center Outlook for the Continental United States (CONUS):
1.??? For tonight (Saturday), Isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms are expected from parts of the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes. Organized severe thunderstorm potential appears minimal.
2.??? For Sunday (Day 2), Thunderstorms are possible over parts of the Northeast, Southeast, Texas to Mid-South overnight, and across the Pacific Northwest. None of the storms are expected to be severe.
3.??? On Monday (Day 3), Severe thunderstorms are not forecast.
4.??? As for Days 4 through 8 or Tuesday through Sunday, November 13, 2022: the potential threat for a regional area of organized severe storms appears too low to predict or is unlikely to occur as of net time.
