Tropical Storm Norbert moves away from Mexico

Overview

Tropical Storm Norbert continues to move westward across the East Pacific, away from the Mexican coastline. Recent reports indicate it is unlikely to reach hurricane strength and is expected to dissipate or become a post-tropical remnant low by midweek, driven by dry air and wind shear.

As of mid-September 2026, the storm remains well offshore, posing no direct threat to Mexico or the Hawaiian Islands, though it may generate larger swells in certain areas. The system’s trajectory is currently being influenced by mid-level ridges in the Pacific.

Concurrently, meteorologists are monitoring Invest 97E, a low-pressure area located south-southwest of the Baja California Peninsula. This system has a high probability of development and is expected to be named Odalys by Monday.
