BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2024 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Nothing to worry about Sunday morning but if you need a reminder that the Atlantic Hurricane Season isn’t over yet, look no further than the Sunday afternoon tracking map from the National Hurricane Center. That “X” we’ve been watching for a few days is still there, and there’s a chance it could develop into a tropical system by the middle of the week. We remind our readers that the orange oval shows where a system may develop, not necessarily a direction of travel.
