What You Need To Know

  • We're tracking two disturbances in the Atlantic with potential to develop

  • One area has high development odds

  • A new tropical depression could form later this week

A disturbance in the central Atlantic is producing disorganized showers and storms as it moves west-northwestward. Conditions will be slightly favorable for development during the next few days, and a tropical depression could form this week.

Another disturbance further east in the eastern Atlantic is moving west-northwestward and producing showers and storms. Conditions should become more favorable later this week as the system interacts with a tropical wave in the central Atlantic, and development chances will become more likely later this week.

Here's a look at the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season so far.
