Under observation by the National Hurricane Center five systems in the Atlantic

The National Hurricane Center (CNH) said today, Saturday, that they have under observation five systems in the Atlantic.

“Although there are currently no active tropical cyclones, we are observing 5 separate systems in the Atlantic basin,” the CNH posted on its social media.

The first system, a tropical wave that interacts with a trough of higher levels southwest of the Gulf of Mexico, now has a 90% chance of becoming a tropical depression in the next 2 days. Those interested in visiting the western and northwestern coast of the Gulf should monitor the progress of this system, the CNH noted.

On the other hand, showers and thunderstorms remain poorly organized with a tropical wave located near the Cape Verde Islands. This second system now has a 50% chance of becoming a tropical depression in the next 2 days before environmental conditions become less favorable by the middle of next week.

The third system has a 10% to 2 day probability and a 20% to 5 day probability of acquiring tropical or subtropical characteristics. A non-tropical low pressure area several hundred miles northeast of the Azores is expected to move south-southeast toward warmer waters.

Another tropical wave is also expected to move off the west coast of Africa in a few days. This fourth system has a 40% chance of becoming a tropical depression in the next 5 days as it moves west across the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean.

Finally, the formation of a low pressure area near the southeastern Bahamas is expected in a few days. Gradual development is possible from then on, and this system has a 30% chance of becoming a tropical depression in 5 days.
