Tropics forcast: 2 disturbances form in the Atlantic; one getting more developed: NHC

One of two tropical disturbances in the Atlantic Ocean now has a 50% chance of further development over the next seven days, the National Hurricane Center said. The second wave – several hundred miles to its east – has a 20% chance of development, the NHC said.

The tropical wave in the central tropical Atlantic continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms, but that they’ve become more concentrated, the NHC said in its 8 p.m. Thursday update. It’s possible that it could become a tropical depression next week as it approaches the Lesser Antilles islands. It’s currently moving westward at 10-15 mph.

It currently has a 50% chance of further development. If it becomes a tropical storm or hurricane, the next name on the list is Francine – the sixth named storm of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season.
