Tropical Update
Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 AM EDT Sun Oct 13 2024
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL94):
Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure located a few hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands have have increased some during the past several hours. However, the low is moving into an environment that is less conducive for development, and therefore during the next few days the chance of tropical cyclone formation appears to be decreasing. This system is forecast to move westward or west-southwestward across the tropical Atlantic, and it may encounter conditions more conducive for development over the western tropical Atlantic by the middle of next week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.
