Tropical update: Tracking multiple disturbances in the Atlantic
SUMMARY: Good morning, I’m meteorologist Cheetah Craft with your Tropics update. In the Atlantic, we’re monitoring a tropical wave in the central Atlantic with a 30% chance of development and another wave in the Bay of Campeche with a 60% chance over the next week. This wave will remain in the southern Gulf for 24-48 hours. A stalled cold front will allow for potential tropical development along the Texas coastline midweek, increasing rain chances. The peak of hurricane season is approaching, and we urge everyone to stay vigilant for updates as we closely monitor these systems.
There are multiple spots in the tropics we’re watching, but one in particular has our attention.
