National Hurricane Center monitoring tropical disturbance in Atlantic

Posted: Tuesday, July 28, 2020. 8:53 am CST.

By BBN Staff: The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is monitoring a tropical disturbance in the Atlantic.

An elongated area of low pressure is located on this Tuesday morning over the Atlantic Ocean about 500 miles east of the Windward Islands, producing a wide area of showers and thunderstorms.

Although recent satellite imagery suggests that the system does not yet have a well-defined center, data from NOAA buoy 41040 indicate that the system is producing winds near tropical-storm-force.

An Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate the system this afternoon.

Environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for additional development and a tropical depression or tropical storm is likely to form during the next couple of days while the system moves west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph and approaches the Leeward Islands.

The disturbance has a high (80 percent) chance of formation during the next 48 hours and a high (90 percent) chance during the next five days.
