BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2023 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — It is still not expected to become anything that threatens South Florida, but the third monitored tropical system of the year — and the second of the 2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season which just started on June 1st — continues to be watched.
The following is the Tuesday update from the National Hurricane Center: Northeastern Atlantic Ocean: A complex, non-tropical area of low pressure located between the Azores and Canary Islands is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms with winds to gale force over the northeastern Atlantic Ocean.
This system could acquire some subtropical characteristics during the next day or so while it meanders to the east and southeast of the Azores. By late Wednesday, the system is forecast to move northeastward over cooler waters, and further development is not expected.
Regardless of development, heavy rains and gusty winds will continue across portions of the Canary Islands, Madeira Island, and the Azores over the next day or so.
