BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2021 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Two systems far east of Florida are likely to become tropical cyclones later this week. If they do, Victor and Wanda will round out the predetermined names for the season. Much like last year, the National Hurricane Center will the move to the Greek Alphabet.
Victor and Wanda both have an 80 percent chance of tropical cyclone development over the next five days. It is much too early to consider a path for either. The red oval on the map above indicates an area where a system may develop, not necessarily a direction of travel.
Meantime, Sam is no threat now to the United States mainland, but is an extremely strong hurricane. Peter’s remnants continue to dissipate.
This is the early morning tropical outlook from the National Hurricane Center for Monday, September 27th, 2021.

A tropical wave is expected to move off of the west coast of Africa later today.
