NHC Watching Three Areas Of Interest In Atlantic

The National Hurricane Center highlighted three areas of interest in the Atlantic Tuesday.

While there is no immediate threat to our area, it is a reminder there's still a little over a month remaining in the 2022 hurricane season.

Here's the latest from the NHC:

Northwestern Atlantic:

Shower activity associated with an area of low pressure located about 70 miles north of Bermuda remains limited. The low is moving northward over cooler waters and into an area of strong upper-level winds. Therefore, the chance for development is decreasing.

Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.

Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

Southwestern Atlantic:

A trough of low pressure extending from near the Turks and Caicos Islands north-northeastward for several hundred miles is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear conducive for some gradual subtropical development of this system over the next few days while it drifts north-northeastward. By this weekend, the system is forecast to meander over the subtropical western Atlantic to the west or southwest of Bermuda.

  • Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
  • Formation chance through 5 days...low...30 percent.

Eastern Caribbean:

An area of low pressure could form over the eastern Caribbean Sea by early this weekend. Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for gradual development as the low drifts westward or west-northwestward over the eastern Caribbean this weekend.

  • Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
  • Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

The 2022 Atlantic hurricane season ends November 30.
