The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a trough of low pressure 600 miles east of Bermuda. Right now, it’s just disorganized showers and thunderstorms, but it is showing signs of organizing.
The National Hurricane Center is saying there is a likely chance (70%) of the formation of a tropical depression in the next two days.
The cluster of storms is moving to the NE at 10mph, and as it does it is entering a much less favorable environment for tropical development. By Tuesday it will be in cooler waters and encounter strong upper level winds, both of which will quickly dissipate the system. This means time is not on it’s side.
If this storm is able to develop and organize quickly it could become our first named storm of the year, Tropical Storm Andrea.
Regardless of development, this is not a threat to the lower-48. This storm will continue to push to the NE over the open central Atlantic Ocean.
Remember the Atlantic hurricane season lasts through November. Here in SE Texas we see tropical season peak in September, but we can see a storm anytime from now through the fall. Last year Hurricane Beryl made landfall early in the morning on July 8th.
