NHC Watching Two Areas For Possible Development

The National Hurricane Center is watching two areas for possible development.

Here's the latest from the NHC Tuesday morning:

Near the Windward Islands (AL95):

A tropical wave located near the Windward Islands is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms while moving quickly westward. Development, if any, of this system should be slow to occur during the next day or two before it moves into a region of unfavorable upper-level winds. Regardless of development, locally heavy rains and strong gusty winds are expected across portions of the Lesser Antilles during the next day or so.

  • Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
  • Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.

Southwestern Atlantic:

A weak trough of low pressure is located a few hundred miles south-southwest of Bermuda. Some gradual development of this system is possible while it moves west-northwestward towards the southeastern U.S. coast later this week and into the weekend.

  • Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
  • Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.

There is no current threat to Louisiana or the Gulf Coast from either system. The hurricane season ends on November 30.
