Hurricane update - 24 September

Just to say that at this time, there are no tropical cyclones to worry about. The remnant of Helene will reach the British Isles as an active depression on Wednesday, with a lot of rain but no excessive winds - I hope I'm not about to experience a "Michael Fish" moment (UK readers know what I'm talking about).

Typhoon Yagi has ceased to be a tropical cyclone, even though it sported a central pressure of 910 mbar a few days ago (on average, your barometer will show 990 to 1030 mbars).

Tropical Storm Mukda has been spinning 250-300 miles south of Karachi for a few days, but has brought no more than some strong winds (force 7 to 9) and heavy rain to the coast of Gujarat state in India.

And a tropical depression is moving inland in Vietnam and is about to disappear.
