Now There’s Three; Business Picking Up In The Tropics
1. **Western Gulf of Mexico (AL91):** An area of low pressure has formed over the Bay of Campeche, bringing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. The system is expected to drift northward over the next few days and may develop into a tropical depression early or mid next week, affecting the Mexican and Texas Gulf coast. Residents should monitor this system closely.
*Formation chance through 48 hours: Medium (50%)
*Formation chance through 7 days: High (70%)
2. **Central Tropical Atlantic:** A low-pressure area in the central tropical Atlantic is causing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. There is a possibility of gradual development, with a potential tropical depression forming early next week as it moves west-northwestward.
*Formation chance through 48 hours: Low (10%)
*Formation chance through 7 days: Medium (40%)
3. **Eastern and Central Tropical Atlantic:** Disorganized showers and thunderstorms associated with a low-pressure trough are located southeast of the Cabo Verde Islands. Some slow development is possible as it interacts with a tropical wave moving off Africa early next week.
*Formation chance through 48 hours: Low (near 0%)
*Formation chance through 7 days: Low (20%)
