NHC Monitors Low-Pressure System Near Cabo Verde With 20% Formation Odds
The National Hurricane Center is tracking an area of low pressure in the eastern tropical Atlantic, located a few hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands. The system is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms but faces a 20% chance of developing into a tropical storm over the next 48 hours and seven days. Strong upper-level winds are expected to hinder further development by midweek, though heavy rainfall is forecast for the islands regardless of whether the system organizes. This monitoring comes shortly after Hurricane Isaias impacted the southeastern United States.
