First major hurricane of season; watching tropical waves

Fiona becomes the first major storm of the season. A tropical wave in the Atlantic could develop later this week.

NHC watching two areas

There are two possible areas to watch in the Atlantic during the next few days.

The National Hurricane Center is watching three areas of interest in the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.

Two out of three systems in the Atlantic have the potential to develop into a tropical depression.

Two more tropical waves are making their way across the central Atlantic Ocean as the peak of the hurricane season approaches.

The low pressure system making its way toward the Windward Islands has a high chance of further development.

Tropical Storm Gonzalo, Tropical Depression Eight and a new tropical wave off the coast of Africa.

Tropical Depression Eight formed in the Gulf and Tropical Storm Gonzalo is expected to become a hurricane later today.

Tropical Storm Edouard formed. It is expected to be short-lived.

Three tropical waves and one tropical storm remind that the hurricane season isn't over yet.
