BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2021 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — The National Hurricane Center is watching two systems, one with a 60 percent chance of formation over the next five days.
From the National Hurricane Center Friday afternoon, August 6, 2021:
- A large area of disorganized cloudiness and showers located a few
hundred miles south of the Cabo Verde Islands is associated with
a tropical wave and an associated broad area of low pressure.
Environmental conditions appear somewhat conducive for gradual
development over the next several days, and a tropical depression
could form late this weekend or early next week while the system
moves generally west-northwestward across the tropical Atlantic.
- Formation chance through 48 hours…low…30 percent.
- Formation chance through 5 days…medium…60 percent.
- A tropical wave located over the west-central tropical Atlantic
is producing limited shower activity. Development, if any, of this
system is expected to be slow to occur as it moves west-
northwestward and approaches the Lesser Antilles early next week.
- Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
- Formation chance through 5 days…low…20 percent.
