Edited to add:
From the MAP List - the 12 UTC ECMWF operational forecast of 1000-500 mb thickness, valid at 180-hours. Storm to northwest is Jose, with Maria to his southeast. Same forecast from GFS (both are from operational versions of the models) below is very different.

Very pleasant this morning for walking, with clear, cool, and dry conditions. At 7:00 am MST it was 70 F on campus, 69 F at airport, and 58 F here along the Rillito.
Most weather attention during the coming week will be on the five named tropical storms - especially Jose and Maria. The current NHC status maps for this morning are shown here for both Basins - along with MIMIC TPW at 13 UTC. Here in the Southwest, as Norma pulls slowly away from the GoC, it appears that some low-level moisture will intrude into southern Arizona - so that will be something to watch locally.
In the Atlantic the long-term future of hurricanes Jose and Maria becomes very complex in model forecasts, with the storms interacting with each other near the East Coast. There may be a Fujiwhara effect, as the storms could circulate around each other, since Jose is forecast to stall and loop to the south - the second time in the long-lived storm's history.
