Tropical Weather Update: Two Areas of Disturbed Weather Monitored in the Atlantic

Atlantic Tropics Activity

• 🎯 Two areas of disturbed weather are currently being monitored in the Atlantic, with updates provided by Fox 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes.
• ⚠️ One system is located just off the coast of the United States, showing a low 10% chance of formation within the next 2 to 7 days.
• 🗺️ Models indicate this system will likely merge with a frontal boundary, becoming extra-tropical by the start of next week and is not expected to develop into a named storm.

Invest 96L Development Potential

• 🌊 A tropical wave, designated Invest 96L, is located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
• 💨 Current satellite imagery shows this system is engulfed by dry air, which is hindering its development, though odds for formation have dropped to 50% over the next seven days.
• 📈 As Invest 96L moves into a more favorable environment, it has a better chance to form into a tropical depression.

System Tracks and Potential Impacts

• 🧭 Forecast models suggest a turn to the north for Invest 96L, increasingly likely as a weakness in the steering high-pressure area allows it to gain latitude.
• 📍 Most models indicate this system will track east of Bermuda, which will need to monitor it, but this northward turn is a positive sign for the United States.
• 🌍 The main development region in the Atlantic is expected to see an increase in activity as more tropical waves emerge from Africa, though the National Hurricane Center is not currently outlining additional spots.
• 🇺🇸 Neither of the currently monitored systems is expected to impact the United States.
