THE National Hurricane Centre (NHC) in Miami is monitoring a disturbed area of thunderstorms and showers over the western Atlantic Ocean northeast of the southeastern Bahamas.
“Disorganised cloudiness and showers continue over the western Atlantic Ocean located near the southeastern Bahamas,” the NHC reported yesterday morning, adding later that the system was showing no signs of organisation.
“Any development of this system is expected to be slow to occur during the next several days while it moves northwestward and then northward, nearly midway between Florida and Bermuda by Tuesday.”
Last night, the NHC predicted the chances of a cyclone forming were low and becoming less likely, forecasting a 10 per cent chance during yesterday and today and 20 per cent over the next five days.
