MIAMI — The tropical activity in the Atlantic on Monday is much calmer than last week, when forecasters were monitoring Hurricane Earl and several other systems. Earl is long gone, but forecasters are watching two disturbances.
A tropical wave midway between the west coast of Africa and the Lesser Antilles continues to produce a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms, according to the National Hurricane Center’s 2 p.m. Eastern time advisory.
Some slow development of this system is possible over the next several days, the hurricane center said, while it moves west to west-northwest, approaching the Lesser Antilles by the end of the week.
