Tropical Storm Isaias forms in the Gulf amid weakening wind shear
Original: storm
Tropical Storm Isaias has formed in the US Gulf region, with weaker wind shear during El Niño conditions playing a role in its development. El Niño typically increases wind shear in the Atlantic basin, which can suppress storm formation, so the reduced shear allowing Isaias to strengthen is drawing attention from weather watchers as the storm is being tracked closely.
Why now: A newly formed named storm threatening the US Gulf coast is urgent, developing news that people are actively tracking.
