Threat Grows in the Atlantic with New Models Showing Potential for U.S. Impacts
National Hurricane Center reports an 80% chance Invest 91L will develop into a tropical depression or storm by weekend, moving toward the Lesser and Greater Antilles.
- On Thursday the National Hurricane Center designated Invest 91L in the eastern Atlantic, noting a 60% chance of formation in 48 hours and 90% over seven days near the Cabo Verde Islands.
- Originating as an easterly wave off Africa, Invest 91L moved into the tropical Atlantic earlier this week as the season nears its Sept. 10 peak.
- Moving slowly west‑northwest at 5 to 10 mph, Invest 91L is forecast to approach waters near the Lesser Antilles by the middle of next week.
- Although the United States mainland faces no immediate threat, no watches or warnings have been issued as of Thursday, and interests in the Lesser Antilles should monitor the system's progress.
- Given divergent model guidance and modest seasonal activity, long-term track remains uncertain with some global forecast models targeting the Greater Antilles, while Accumulated Cyclone Energy runs 13% below normal and six named storms have formed so far.
