Disturbance 1. Central Caribbean Sea and Southwestern Atlantic (AL94): A tropical wave is producing a large area of disorganized showers, thunderstorms, and gusty winds across portions of the Dominican Republic, and the Turks and Caicos Islands. An area of low pressure is expected to form along the wave tonight or early Friday when it moves near the southeast Bahamas. Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent and formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.
Disturbance 2. Tropical Storm Humberto is forecast to strengthen in the coming days. Humberto is located about 480 miles ENE of the Northern Leeward Islands moving NW at 10 MPH with 45 MPH maximum sustained winds. A west-northwest to northwest motion is expected over the next several days with a slower forward speed. There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect.
Disturbance 3. Hurricane Gabrielle remains no threat to our part of the world and is still headed across the North Atlantic toward Spain. However, swells generated by Gabrielle will continue to affect Bermuda, the U.S. East Coast from North Carolina northward, and Atlantic Canada over the next couple of days. These swells are expected to produce life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
