Developing System Poses Weather Risk to Lesser Antilles
NHC – The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is closely observing a developing system in the Central Tropical Atlantic.
Located between the Cabo Verde Islands and the Lesser Antilles, this low-pressure area exhibits signs of organization with associated shower activity.
While environmental conditions are marginally conducive, slow development is anticipated.
Meteorologists project the system may become a tropical depression by early next week while moving westward across the tropical Atlantic.
Residents in the Lesser Antilles should monitor the system’s progress closely, as it has the potential to impact the region.
The NHC gives a “medium” chance, 50 percent, of it becoming a tropical depression within 48 hours and a “high” probability, 70 percent, over the next 7 days.
