This storm started just south of New Orleans and ruined our July 4 fireworks with rain and little winds [8 knots]. Barometric Pressure on my boat was 1013 mbars.
Not much of a LOW pressure, but it was moving Counter Clockwise.
What caused this formation?
The Sahara Dry winds hitting the Gulf of Mexico Shoreline resulting in the CCW swirl.
Sahara Dust
I swore to @jssailem that I would not mentions this Storm, as it was passing through Atlanta GA.
But...
Now it will Enter the Atlantic and skim the East Coast as a mainly Rain event.
_____
The Sahara Winds have not affected the East Coast from South Carolina and north.
We have noted that Dolly and Edouard both were Non-Tropical Storms that formed off NC and VA. [Lack of the Drying Air from Sahara]
This storm may get the name...
