Tropical storm Ophelia is at 8:00 Could make landfall as a tropical storm and continue that state until it heads northern more.

From the current systems, id say Kenneth moved north and dies off, Nigel does the same and impacts Greenland as a post tropical cyclone. Sixteen will get the name Ophelia, 90L becomes Philippe and makes some impacts in the Carribean, 90W most likely dies off like the other invests in the west Pacific, 91C dies off, 96E might become short lived Lidia, 96W continues its dying trend, and 98A might become ARB 02, however I’m split on this due to sea surface temps. In the future, I think a system in the Australian region is bound by mid October, and the gulf of Mexico and carribean get hammered by powerful storms along with a not active east Pacific and central Pacific. Also maybe a couple typhoons in the West Pacific.

90L is going to be something significant, wind shear is loosing for 96W and it may tries to regenerate, possibly hurricane opheilia (low chance), dying systems and a “promising” season for the australian region

what will happen if a cyclone travels into the Persian Gulf? will it go wild or what?

It will dissipate probably when passing by the Strait of Hormuz due to extreme land interaction, but, if somehow manages to reach the Persian gulf, It won’t have much time to strengthen and will be a Tropical Storm maximum even though the gulf has very high sea surface temperatures. This is my thought, so it can be wrong…

And now 97l is expected to strengthen into a category 2 or 3 storm(Nigel).
