BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) — Two tropical waves may merge over the next several days into one depression that remains on a path towards Florida. While the five-day track often changes, this is one to watch even though any true threat could be more than a week away. The National Hurricane Center says there is now a 60-percent chance of development.

Meantime, tropical storms Nana and Omar remain no threat to the United States mainland.

NOAA says as many as 25 storms may form during this active hurricane season. The next named storms will be Paulette, Renae and Sally.

This is the latest forecast from the National Hurricane Center.
