The Atlantic hurricane season is beginning to show increased activity as forecasters monitor Tropical Storm Cristobal and two other systems, Invest 92L and Invest 94L.
Current Storms
- Tropical Storm Cristobal formed unexpectedly east of Bermuda but is expected to weaken as it encounters cooler waters and strong upper-level winds.
- Invest 92L is likely to develop into a tropical depression soon as it moves across the Atlantic.
- Invest 94L, situated south of the Cabo Verde Islands, is producing disorganized weather and may develop later this week.
Forecasts
- Invest 92L is a threat to the Lesser Antilles and Puerto Rico but could face wind shear that may prevent it from strengthening significantly.
- Invest 94L’s path and potential impact on Florida will be clearer if it continues to develop.
Future Named Storms
The next named storms in the Atlantic will be Dolly and Eduard.
