The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane Francine, located over the western Gulf of Mexico. Next intermediate advisory at 7:00 AM CDT at hurricanes.gov/#Francine
1. Central Tropical Atlantic (AL92):
An elongated area of low pressure located over the central tropical Atlantic continues to produce some disorganized shower and thunderstorm activity. Environmental conditions appear marginally conducive for some slight development during the next day or two while the system moves westward at 5 to 10 mph over the central tropical Atlantic. The disturbance is expected to reach an area of stronger upper-level winds on Thursday, likely ending its chances for development. It has a low (30 percent) chance of development through 48 hours and in the next 7 days.
2. Eastern and Central Tropical Atlantic (AL93):
A trough of low pressure over the eastern tropical Atlantic is producing a large but disorganized area of showers and thunderstorms from near the Cabo Verde Islands extending southwestward for several hundred miles. Environmental conditions appear favorable for gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression
will likely form during the latter part of this week while the system moves west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph. It has a medium (40 percent) chance of formation through 48 hours and a high (80 percent) chance in the next 7 days.
