There are two new significant candidates for tropical development in the Atlantic basin this week, and although neither budding storm poses a threat to the United States at this time, at least one will drift westward across the Caribbean and bears watching for potential adverse conditions, AccuWeather meteorologists say.
A new tropical disturbance, known as a tropical wave, has had AccuWeather meteorologists’ interest since early last week when Ian was brewing in the Caribbean. During this past weekend, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) dubbed the tropical wave 91L in order to step up investigative measures.
