WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A tropical wave in the far eastern Atlantic remains disorganized at this time. However, conditions are becoming more favorable for development, and a tropical depression or storm could form by the end of the week.
The National Hurricane Center is giving this system a 70% chance of development in the next week. The next name on deck is Gabrielle.
Initially, the storm will track westward across the tropical Atlantic for a few days and is expected to be near the Caribbean in about a week. After that, it's still too early to tell where it will end up and how strong it will get.
