WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A Tropical Wave, designated as Invest 91-L, in the central Atlantic Ocean has been struggling to develop.

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) has lowered development chances with this system significantly during the last two days due to the system encountering drier air. It is no longer expected to develop into a tropical system.

There are currently no other areas being monitored by the NHC, but we will continue to watch the tropical waves in the Atlantic basin as we are just now hitting the peak of hurricane season.

We have had 6 named storms so far this season. The next name on the list is Gabrielle.
