TRACKING THE TROPICS: Hurricane Center | Hurricane Guide
Good Sunday morning! As we head through the rest of the week, we'll be watching for the potential for a tropical depression to form near the Leeward Islands, Greater Antilles, or southwestern Atlantic.

Some development of this system will be possible as it moves west across the Atlantic.
Environmental conditions are forecast to become conducive for some development in a day or two, and a tropical depression could form around midweek while the system is near or over the northern Leeward Islands, Greater Antilles or southwestern Atlantic Ocean.
The chance for tropical formation over the next seven days is 40%.
Models are still at odds regarding any potential development/organization of this wave and its track this far out. Will continue to monitor.
